this is not a B&R

[LTH]

Hi,

I'm very found of B&R watches but do not want to put 3000€ in watch which can't display the day and doesn't have a metal bracelet

so I received this one this morning from HK, got it for 25€ including delivery from ebay

it's not a fake or a replica... but a mix of a Tourbillon case, BR03 size, what seems to be a seagull 6 hands movement, and a rubber band (short...) which doesn't smell bad, hands are nice but without any lume, absolutely not water resistant, the movement is noisy but hackable and windable, it's not a chrono (don't like chrono...) but the small dials are day, date, and 24hr and it's working since 2 hours on my wrist, if it's always working in a couple of weeks I'll try to open it and lume the hands

Congratz on it dude. Yeah it looks very similar but a pro will always know that it is just a "fake copy". What mark is this?
Cheers

I believe the politically correct term would be "homage".

No, it's knockoff.

it's obiously a copy, but absolutely not a fake, there is no b&r mark at all on it, the brand on the dial is "micenga"

it's still running after 3 days... I'm trying to find how to record it's incredible noise

Isn't this a Bell and Ross Forum?

So you bought a replica, knock-off, homage--great...

So it's an homage to a company that makes watches patterned after aircraft instruments~Looks fine, cheers!

And to the Revue Thommen Aircraft Clock - 16006.3117

never forget that the BR Instrument line is nothing else that a Sinn 656 with a square case

I think most of us are familiar with the history of B & R...

Not sure I understand your point...This is a Bell and Ross Forum not a Micenga forum...

Congatulations on your purchase...Personally, I am not a big fan of replicas, fakes or knock-offs, but that's just me...I know others feel differently as they can wear something that has the look they want at an affordable price...To each is own...Good luck w/yours...

Cheers...
