The Bell & Ross was (unusually for me) a brand new watch from Jura & the Pointy 4 LV was traded for my Flat 4 + cash my way.

Great pickups! Never historically liked the Bell & Ross square watches, but this new smaller version has really grown on me. The gold accents and chamfered stainless case is a great combination.

That LV looks like it has some huge chamfers on it. It has been a while since I’ve seen a Bexley edge.

Boy Andy, this is like a dream ! :excited:

Had to take a couple looks to make sure of what was actually on the screen
here sir. ..However, after a few seconds realized what you were showing was
indeed real, and there in your collection. :salute: :salute: It's pretty incredible just
seeing write-ups on these watches on the various watch blogs. But to see them
in someone's collection like this, and at the same time is remarkable really.
Not to mention more fun than can be put into words. So I hope you don't mind
if I stare at them for a little while. :o

Am not sure it can get any better than this Andy. Now the tough part begins
in which to wear first I guess. However, that is one terrific problem to have
when you think about it. ..Enjoy sir ! Holy cow, a DOUBLE dueling congrats !!!

Very nice! Of course I love the Submariner, but the B&R is really nice. I had a new B&R for a short time earlier this year and thought it was very well made.

Congrats! I admit I would not have the guts to pull off the B&R but it's definitely a looker and something "refreshing" in a sea of divers.
As for the Kermit - great buy, looks to be in excellent condition! Hope you wear it and enjoy it as it was meant.
