I like Bell & Ross, a lot. Especially their Aviation series.
And I know my daughter will love the Airborne series, especially the 672. She's currently going through that period.
Maybe Tom can understand me better.

PuristSPro have got some shots up of B&R. Not sure that I would want to live with it, but the red radar is very cool! http://basel.watchprosite.com/show-foru ... 00003/s-0/ |

I like their round ones, not big on the square. The red radar is pretty cool looking but I'd never wear it. |

It is quite possible my next watch, if there IS a next watch, will be the Vintage 123 (non-chrono) or 126(chrono) Heritage. I couldn't adjust to the width of the 02 strap. I have still yet to strap on a Vintage Heritage but have heard they wear a little larger than the stated diameter of 40mm. |

That red radar is really cool, but I would have prefered it if they would have only done the gradiated red on the second disc and maybe large dots for the hour and minutes. Still pretty cool. |

That radar is interesting, but freaking ugly! Looks like a Burger King toy from a childrens spy movie promotion. On the other hand, some of the polished models dont look half bad, although pretty much the same as always. |

B&R seem to come up with cool ideas every year. I like the red radar, although I agree it looks a bit more gimmicky than the original radar (as an aside, I recently had a chance to pick up a radar at a reasonable price and was seriously tempted). I've never liked the Airborne, but I like that aged steel finish. Hopefully that will make its way onto the regular BR01/03 range one day. Ceramic BR01 is good news too. |

The gun metal Airbourne is now my favourite (achievable) new watch from Basel. However, I fear it may be a little too big for me after I was recently leant two Chrono BR01s.
