Funny story...
I was at a wedding this last weekend and I saw a guy with a cool looking square watch. It had a black face, leather band and the 12, 3, 6, 9 were oversized.
I was guessing it was a few hundred dollar watch that I might consider buying. Bound and determined to figure out what kind of watch it was - I looked through the pages of this thread but didn't see anything that resembled it. Unfortunately, I didn't find it...
Well I saw the guy again and caught a glimpse of the band and saw it had a BR on it. My brain automatically jumped to, oh it must be Banana Republic. I can probably pick it up for $100.
Excited - I jumped online to purchase one - well, I was sadly mistaken - after a quick internet search I found out it was a Bell & Ross that costs $4000!
When it was all said and done, I felt like a dork. I thought it was pretty funny though.

If you've seen a picture of a Bell & Ross you will know one when you see one and given the size of them, they are not that difficult to see. I know people who like them, personally I think they are hideous.
Speaking of Bell and Ross here is mine

As promised Fossil watch no. 2. A present from my lovely girlfriend for my birthday
my wallet is by Fossil, and it by far the best wallet i've ever had.
sorry i know it was a little off topic...
Yea Im quite a fan of fossil, almost got some polarised fossil sunnys except I have 2 pairs of Oakleys already.my wallet is by Fossil, and it by far the best wallet i've ever had.
Billabong do some pretty nice wallets too. Well in the states anyway, I got both my billabong wallets when I was in NYC on holiday, over here the selection isnt so good.
Hmm we could have another thread or two there
(wallets and sunnys).Sorry back on topic.......

It was about $1700, expensive, but in the there are much more expensive watches out there.
Never buy a rolex. people will just think its fake
Good taste. I have a Breitling too. Very similar to yours.

Wow, that B&R is gorgeous! Congrats. I am determined to someday pick up a Bremont Alt-1 P. Love the styling more than any watch I've seen, plus its kinda rare and different.
Here's mine, a Suunto D6 with metallic strap. Yes, I am a diver.
It mathematically models nitrogen loading in the body when underwater and calculates decompression stops if necessary. Oh, and it tells the time. Would love to own a Breitling Navimeter someday as a fashion watch though. Beautiful timepieces.

Finally used the gallery feature on my Mobile Me account and uploaded a pic of my Panerai PAM 111 and a pic of the straps I have for it.
