As suggested in another thread :D , here are some pics of my latest acquisition, a Bell & Ross BR 02 with stainless finish and Pro dial. It is bigger than the specs would have you believe, but wears OK because of its shape and the comfort of the rubber strap. My wrist is around 6.5" and the watch doesn't overwhelm my wrist but it still looks too big to me, even though I'm used to wearing 44mm Breitlings. I still wish there was a bracelet or some kind of deployant, but I like the strap for now. It's a heavy, large watch, anyone contemplating picking one up should try and actually see one first.

Looks great, especially on the carbon fiber. Is that your hood or trunk?

I'm more of a fan of the square B&R watches. Congrats on the pick up.

Thanks for the compliments, I too like the simple look of the Pro dial.

Neither, it's just a sheet of carbon fiber that I picked up just for this purpose. I'm very active on the various knife forums, so I find myself taking pictures of knives on a regular basis. The CF makes a nice background for knives and watches.
