I recently purchased my 1st Bell & Ross BR01 timepiece. However, am not so keen on the supplied BR01 original rubber strap and original velcro strap, so am letting go to anyone whom may be a fan of such 24mm straps. Both straps look as-new (in fact, the velcro strap is unused and still has the original protective sticker intact) and am selling as per the following :

1) Rubber strap (RRP : RM600+) going for RM450;
2) Velcro strap (RRP : RM600+) going for RM500.

The rubber strap is selling cheaper as it comes attached on the watch, so I am wearing it pending the arrival of my new straps. Rubber strap buckle is not included in the sale.

Hi Chris, I did a quick Google prior to posting the advert the other day and got the rubber strap pricing from a fellow MWF member whom purchased from Bell & Ross AD last July as per the following :

I got mine for around rm450 at xxx at Bangsar shopping centre. I tried asking around in sincere and xxx timepieces in gardens but both were about rm600+. I asked why xxxgot it cheaper and was told that they kept stock and bought at the older price. I was so happy with the low price I immediately went back

And the velcro strap pricing was referenced from Amazon (USD195 + USD20) @ http://www.amazon.com/Bell-Ross-Black-Canvas-24-6-Blkc-Sv/dp/B008OAX190, which converted to RM600+.

I'm just clearing the new straps as I prefer to dress it up my style; and don't mean to use them for profit-making. Since you seemed to know the pricing better, I would seek your kind confirmation that the prices are indeed RM400 and RM450 each, and I'll be glad to let them go at RM100-RM150 cheaper than the selling prices, or members' offers as deemed fit. At the end of the day, it's just to let them go to owners whom may have a use for them, rather than have them wasted and cooped up in the box.

Looks like B&R's pricing is rather good then, as I recently bought a new Hydrocarbon rubber strap from Ball Malaysia and it cost circa RM600 or slightly lesser. Thanks for highlighting the pricing to this small-time hobbyist.

Dear Mods, would appreciate for this thread to be locked as the items were already sold last month, and there were still queries with regards to the BR01/BR03 original straps. Thanks in advance.
