It appears that this one just came out. The new 24h bezel makes it more interesting than the older model with the plain ss bezel, imho. Very nice. I want it repped!
left the previous model, right the new one:

I saw it too. I looked at the price, these have never been on my radar and I was shocked at what they are asking for gen. Since I cant get a gen rolex, I figured I may as well look for something else. Maybe it will get repped, I don't think it is worth the asking price.

Nice looking though.

It’s alright but kinda looks like the morphed, ugly brother of the Rolex Pepsi

Rolex Coke springs to mind, but do like the strap top right, and the more I see it, the square background is kinda growing on me.

Ok, I might be Partial since I own a B&R diver, but I like to admit that I had my doubts at first about their unusual square format. But, after seeing it in the flesh and wearing it for a few minutes, I fell totally in love with it. And yes, I totally agree that the gens are overpriced but which Swiss brands aren’t?

Hmm I like it.
I also liked the 'old' gmt. But this one is pretty cool also. I think the rehault makes all the difference.

I was very excited to see this was repped. At first glance it looks great.
But I compared it to a gen and unfortunately see some minor flaws, which at this price point, are a deal breaker for me. I still think it looks great. But knowing myself, it would bother me to much to actually buy it right now. It still might be a nwbig, I think the only real tell would be the incorrect shape of the hour markers on the bezel.
Take a look at what I've seen when I did a quick comparison:
  • color of the GMT hand is to dark
  • Font bezel hour markers seem a little less bold
  • Hour markers on dial seem to bold
  • Hour markers bezel incorrect shape
  • Pearl seems a bit different. But need better pictures to compare.
for the rest it looks pretty good.

​​​​​​​I believe that all the recently released B&R models are from a unknown factory. Including this one.

Apart from the (minor) detail described above, it definitely looks great. Hopefully we can see some wrist shots soon.
