Grimmi 1 Posted December 27, 2017 I’d often thought about getting a gen Bell & Ross and having had (and have) a few reps that I love I thought I’d make good on the Boxing Day sales. I’d been put off paying a few grand on a watch with such a basic and stock movement but in the end my “want” got the better of me so I’m saying it’s a late Chanukah present to myself and I’m pretty stoked (my fiancée is too as she used this as an opportunity to go shopping at Gucci ). I compared it to my latest rep pick up (B&R Horograph) and it is noticeably better but you’d hope so for the price. the rep horograph is still crazy close to the gen that I saw, so I’m pretty happy about that too. that being said I think I can see a few more reps coming my way as the latest ones are pretty damn close!

ShovelnTC 31 Posted December 27, 2017 Congrats mate, I came close to buying a Gen 123 Sport- Heritage but the low WR put me off (for a Diver) but they sure are nice. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the dive watch they have looks pretty great too in my opinion. I’ll probably get the rep and then if I still love it as much i’ll Consider a gen (but I don’t dive, I barely swim lol) 6 minutes ago, Thommo82 said: Nice pick up mate! My rep says G’day Very nice!

Haven’t bought any other straps yet, just the rubber and nylon ones it came with. Might have a look for a nice leather one or something soon but to be honest I’m a big fan of the nylon/canvas one.
