Does Bell & Ross deserve more attention, appreciation and a little credit for something?

Now, I am not one who cares for date windows in general.  But, when a manufacturer goes through the trouble of straightening the date numbers to horizontal *AND* matching the date background color to their dial colors, I say hats off to them.  I am not sure any other manufacturer does this throughout their lineup, let alone one that sells relatively affordable watches.  What say you?

I think doing the date wheel in the same color

And also making alignment adjustments, for the better, shows care. Moreover, because their pieces are more, arguably, attainable, makes this more of a value argument in B&R’s favor.

Thank you! That's exactly my point. [nt]

I have a Bell & Ross and absolutely love it.

One of the reasons being the position of the date on the date wheel. A most often overlooked detail.

This watch is nice

I actually want it too. I guess I’m too greedy and gotta control that, but yea, it’s a good functional piece for scuba.
