About twenty years ago I bought a B&M at an airport ....bangkok........and it was a similar sort of black chronograph. Was a cool watch and had a really great bracelet.......still think its a great bracelet........was black and just really well made and designed. In general they dont make very interesting watches. But that one was tough and lasted me many years and through a lot of abuse.

You did not mention the retail however comparable models from Baume & Mercier retail for $2000. I question why $2000.00 Change the name to BULOVA it is worth $300.00. Or CITIZEN to $400.00 Is the ETA movement worth that much? The stainless steel case is equal in quality to BULOVA and CITIZEN, as well as the dial. Maybe the buying public is getting smart and demanding greater style or added features for $2000.00 I certainly would.
