Anyone have experience of...

[The GMan]

Anonimo or Bell & Ross?

I'm on the look out for a new watch and what something a bit different.

I like the look of the Bell & Ross BR 01 94 and the Anonimo Professionale.

Any advice?

Cheers

No on the Anonimo, but a healthy yes on the Bell & Ross. The BR-01 series are very well made and er, large in the BR-01 92 format (46mm square)....

I had an Anonimo Hi-Dive.

Great, great, bit of kit.

Just ignore anyone who thinks it's a PAM wannabe.

Already got a Panerai base, but I really like the idea of another big watch but from a less know brand and the Anonimo caught my eye along with the Bell & Ross.

The Hi-Dive looks like a great watch.

Ah the B&R just love it.



Re the Anomino I am almost tempted to get one, as the workmanship is meant to be superb.

By the look of it, only if you're Lawrence Llewellyn-Bowen or Louis XVI!

Ha ha! I might have to wear it around my neck!!

It depends on what I am doing and where I am working that day, but yes it does fit under a cuffed shirt without issue.

I would advise a sharpish look on the sales forum at thewatchforum.co.uk

Bell & Ross are cool and probably a bit further up the credibility ladder than your other option but then you pay for that privilege.

The 01 instrument is huge but try it 42mm little brother (03), same looks but smaller and a few hundred quid cheaper.

If you got a gold one you'd look like MrT. Now quit your jibba jabba foooool.
