Had a chance to wear this B&R a few more times and picked up an app called "Watch Tracker" and so far it's been doing fairly well on accuracy, I rest it crown down over night as it's a tad fast but I can live with these numbers, I plan on wearing it until the first of the year so that will give me a chance to give it a good accuracy check.

I rotate pieces weekly so it's only been worn 3 weeks since getting, the patina is almost non existent and I work in a controlled access area so I don't have contact with a lot of ppl but have noticed when we have been out to breakfast, lunch and dinner a few friends have commented and like the look, it's size and shape along with the color make a statement at least to me and I'm pleased with the accuracy, it's not a COSC certified piece and so far has kept time well within COSC specs.

B&R limits runs to 999 pieces I believe, I was wanting to add a bronze piece to my tiny collection and once I saw this one I wanted it as I was in the submarine service and have ties to military diving

Mine is #913 of #999, took me some time to find one that was priced within my budget, it wears somewhat large but I have a 7" wrist and for me it fits without being to big
