Bell & Ross V1-92 Military Watch
Stolen from ABTW:
Bell & Ross’ Cal. 302 is based on the Sellita SW300, a 25-jewel, 38-hour power reserve, automatic mechanical, time-and-date caliber which hums along at a standard 28,800bph. Sellita’s SW300, while not as similar as the SW200 and ETA 2824, exists as an alternative to the ETA 2892. While it isn’t a ground-breaking piece of haute horology, the Sellita based Cal. 302 should provide years of faithful and accurate service and make for easy servicing when the time comes.
A new dial for the existing V1 series, the Bell & Ross V1-92 adds yet another popular pilot’s configuration to the expanding lineup and is the only 38.5mm model with faux vintage colored Super-LumiNova, if that’s what you’re into. The Bell & Ross V1-92 Military is also not outrageously priced at $1,990 USD on a very much aviation-inspired vintage looking brown leather strap. https://www.ablogtowatch.com/bell-ross- ... ary-watch/

I really like those hands.
I really don't like how the date window eats away at the minute markers.

Re: Bell & Ross V1-92 Military Watch
Look at that fucking date window. Just look at that shit. Someone needs to be fired for that.

Love the hands but I don't think they work together. Hate the date.

Re: Bell & Ross V1-92 Military Watch
That's probably the worst date window I have ever seen. Completely ruins a perfectly good watch.

I like dates on watches, but those two are the worst. Too bad because that B&R looks nice.

Lose the date, make it 2mm larger, then I’m in.

My initial response was “wow that is HOT! Watch out IWC!!”
Then I saw that date window .... as a lover of dates on a watch, WTF were they thinking. That is THE worst date window I have ever seen. Even rivaling the stupid old IWC Pilot one shown above. What a joke.
