Looking to buy first b&r rep

[mambas2k]

Greetings

Stumbled upon this site looking at bell and ross replicas. Ive been looking into getting a br01 or br03 replica automatic preferably smaller than 42mm.

Ive looked at sites like timeshop and siix, what other sites do you guys recommend?

Only functionality I want is a reliable automatic movement, date function, and maybe a good luminosity

BR01 is 46mm. If you want 42mm, it's going to have to be a BR03.

Most of the trusted dealers can supply B&R

Is there a smaller rep like a 38mm that has a gen counterpart?

Why would you want a watch that size? Is it for your wife?




Just light hearted banter btw.....welcome to the forum.

Is that too small? I compared it to a ruler and it seems like 42 is too big, maybe it isnt. I just keep on seeing pictures of the 46mm probably

 

[mambas2k]

also what is the best movement to get as far as reliability

The BR03 are with 42mm
There are BR with 38mm but they are better for woman.
The BR is a watch to be big. I don't recommend you smaller than 42mm

The automatic movements are:
Asian 21J simple and reliable very cheap
About 50$ more Asian 2836, reliable and a better than 21J
About a little more than 100$ more you have the "Swiss" movmt. But you will not know if really is a Swiss.
Therefore:
If you have small budget A21J
If you can pay a little more A2836

Dealers: all TD are good
Marvellous, Timeshops, asian 7750, Puretime....

Thank you for the awesome response. I am willing to spend 160-190. I dont mind Asian movement. I have it on an Invicta Submariner Japan Movt seems fine

Yea they're meant to be big. I had on a 42mm today and it looked like a VCR on my wrist. I accidentally ordered a 46mm the other day thinking I could pull it off. It comes in the mail tomorrow- might be up for sale, lol.
