I’ve come first circle back to wanting B&R again… I like these two but need some help, i’m torn. Because of my small passion for aviation, I love the B&R aviation watches. first… From an engineering stand point… I love Titanium and love Carbon Fiber. I feel this best suits my style and the CF will be more subtle in person: ![http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/movadobaby_2208_2682014376](http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/movadobaby_2208_2682014376) On the other hand, i like the simplicity of this and the stainless crown: ![http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/movadobaby_2208_2682920600](http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/movadobaby_2208_2682920600) insight or votes? ---

If You’re going to be selling shit at a place where people try to sell used cigarettes you need to be crafty with your disguise. He probably just goes there to unload all his crap. Used cigarettes?

You hit the nail right on the head. I think you should go for the first one based on your personal taste. Also, I think it looks much better aesthetically. That bit of orange makes it a bit more interesting. Also, the square date windows on the second watch don’t go well with all of the circles. The POWER RESERVE font is a bit large and the display itself just doesn’t look right to me. The first watch just plain “works” and the second one doesn’t imo. ---

Thanks for the input Sam. I Ordered the Titanium BR03-51 GMT. Have you seen this? I actually like this one, but not enough to buy it. Conceptually, it’s pretty cool. ![http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/movadobaby_2208_2716675234](http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/movadobaby_2208_2716675234) ---

I agree that is a cool concept. I have only seen it in pictures and I don’t know if I would actually wear the Radar. Post pics of the GMT when it comes in. :tup: ---

and my latest B&R. It feels so weird to have such a light weight watch! of course, an obligatory CF pic atop my CF roof. [ATTACH=CONFIG]21069[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]21070[/ATTACH] ---

i tried this Edox on yesterday… i REALLY like the feel of it, the look of it, the CF face, the green accessories, the fact that the buttons are on the left hand side etc. etc. but it’s quartz… which isn’t allowed on a man’s wrist. 🙂 ![http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1PRFNhVL_W4/TacT19K0BkI/AAAAAAAAFzM/d9uXXaNNKW0/s1600/EDOX---X-TREME-PILOT-III-The-New-Bad-Boy.jpg](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1PRFNhVL_W4/TacT19K0BkI/AAAAAAAAFzM/d9uXXaNNKW0/s1600/EDOX---X-TREME-PILOT-III-The-New-Bad-Boy.jpg) ---
