Bell & Ross Br V2-92 Garde-Cotes
Discussion
As below. Anyone got one/ thoughts? I bought my Dad a BR123 (Heritage) a few years ago for his 70th and have kind of fancied one since, on the rubber strap.

The straps are crap for daily wear the slots just tear open where the buckle locates. Mine last about a month then they are shot. I no longer use their strap just keep the original for when (if) I get fed up with it and sell the watch.
Must have been in for accuracy about 5 times though.
Each time it lasts 4 months then gained about 30 seconds a day suddenly and increased from there.
In fairness they repaired it f.o.c. took about 2 months each time but every time they sent it back with a new strap (free) and the 12 month guarantee starts again from return.
This time its about 8 months since a service and keeping good time.
I wear it 24/7 other than service or repairs.
Would not swap it for another watch after 4 years I still love the look of it.

They are stunning in the flesh. I do love orange things!!! Bell & Ross make cool watches, I love mine.
I think the case finishing/ dials etc is superb certainly on par with other mid level watches.
I dont really time my watches, so long as i am not late for meetings its good enough, I have a BR 01-92 that is perhaps 10 years old never been serviced and keeps good time, same with my BR03 blue ceramic.
