Some final thoughts on this piece.
I am not someone who chooses different watch for different occasions or outfits, well dont have that luxury of that many time pieces
, so to me i wear this watch to work, t-shirt and shorts and i wont feel out of place.
Lack of date sometimes catches up but for this vintage inspired design its ok.
Only once have i forgot to wind the watch when i was in Japan
The watch is bling under bright sunlight, dial and hands combo makes it bit harder to read.
The strap really needs some time to break in as to me its still a bit stiff.
From the pics you can see the strap is still in great condition and of high quality, stitch on it no complaints as well.
Accuracy of bout +20s per day could need improvement and nothing a competent watchmaker or a trip to the service center cant solve.
I dont see this as another "round watch" because of the design of the lugs which took inspiration from pocket watches and thus i feel its something different.
Argentium case which is the selling point of this watch is something not seen before.
Gives it a nice light golden hue.
Compared to bronze case, you can choose to let the watch patina further or clean it as you wish.
To answer bezelnut question:
Nope the cloth cant be washed since it has chemical quality within it, washing it will make it into a normal cloth which will defeat the purpose.
Watch will have to return to Bell&Ross now
I thank them for giving me this opportunity to review this watch officially other than the ones i have in my collection.
Hope you all enjoyed the journey thus far.
Some last pics, lovely champagne color
