new B&R BRS (39MM ultra slim manual black ceramic)

Nice, a 39 would actually fit on my wrist! I won't expect it to fit in my budget though :-x

Originally the BRS line was supposed to only be in rose gold and platinum, but I think these may just be SS. I really hate black ceramic watches with diamonds, the white one is just fine for ladies.. and I think I would rock the black ceramic one as well. Kind of a dress watch with a little attitude.

Hell I'd wear the black one. At 39mm that square case is still pretty darned big and it probably would look great.

Yea, I would wear one as well (My wrist is TINY). Always loved Bell & Ross, one day when I get a lot of money, I see myself buying one specifically for camping trips and such. I don't care for the separate seconds dial though. Still a very beautiful watch.

Nice, I like the black ceramic no diamonds!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting.:-!

MSRP? ETA in the stores?

my guess $1000ish\- $10K, quartz is being offered as well as rose gold, platinum etc.. pricing could be anywhere. I believe they release models throughout the year but most of their new watches arrive at the end of summer.

Cant wait to see how much this costs
Looks good

pricing info

1900 euros for the black or white ceramic, however this pricing is for the quartz models.. they are generally a little generous with the exchange rates so figure a little off that plus AD normally give 15-25% for WIS.

The ceramic models will only feature the ETA quartz movements, the second set has not been revealed yet other then a basel preview..mechanicals.

Intriguing. I would have to see one in person. 39mm is hard for me to envision being happy with, given what I like and am used to at the moment. But the design w/Ceramic is interesting enough to consider checking them out in person.

But since I'm not going to drop that kind of jack on one, it will have to be a chance encounter. :-!

The cost staggers me. I guess the ceramic is carrying quite a premium. I like the look and concept but one thing really disappoints me...only 50m water resistance!? I love how even in the press packet it says:

"A size that is suitable for everyday use, an ergonomic case with a remarkably flat profile, in accordance with the four fundamental Bell & Ross principles: readability, functionality, accuracy and water-resistance."

Got me on this one :/

The white version (non-diamond) looks like it would be a stunner on the female wrist...

I used to have the 42mm version and it looked way too big on my wrist. The square shape makes it look much bigger than the size it actually is. I have a few 44mm watches that wear on me quite well but that 42mm b&R looked way too big

I just showed my wife that one and now she wants it!

Thinking of getting white BRS or BR03 with ceramic plate for my soon to be fiancee, i'll decide once they release the price for the BRS mechanical . This is probably the 'it' watch for ladies after J12.

anyone have an idea of price for BRS mechanical in USD?
