BR03's are non-existent! Does anyone have a source?

Big_raji do you think it's possible they start making it again if we do something like this:

I don't know if interest would be high enough but maybe we should try.
I have no idea. It's difficult because Rep factories already have the moulds for the bell watches. Asking for a complete case redesign for a new movement is a huge request. One person has to be convinced to put up all the money up front for at least 200 watches.
What I hate seeing is homage bell watches selling for $79 nowadays while the rep version starts at $150. It's the exact same watch except for the logo on the dial. Ugh. Rep factories make a big profit on these bell watches IMHO compared to other reps. No reason for them to fix anything with profit like that.

But why they can't continue with producing the same 03's as before, with 21j or 2836?
You are right about homage watches but I don't mind paying $150-200 even if they don't improve anything but only if it would be available and currently it's out of stock everywhere. Toro said he can get it but this is not confirmed and it's pretty expensive from what he said to me. Too bad that only 01 version is available and this seems to wear pretty big on my 7'' wrist. :/ If they were 42mm I would buy Heritage like yours immediately.

Really don't see any reason why they shouldn't make more of these BR's... They are quite popular and certainly have their own fans all over the world.
With the trend moving to pricier reps these days I would not be surprised to see some industrious investor commission several hundred with some of the improvements buyers want (enhanced lume etc) and get upwards of $300 for the watch at a much larger profit than a $179 piece. The improvements might add 10 or 20 percent to the cost yet increase the profit by 100%. I would bite. In fact would buy 2 (black w/ blue and SS w/ black & white)
Fingers crossed.

I am willing to be one of the investors for these models. But does anyone know where should I begin to contact to make it done?

I think that even 2813 version is not available. :/ I hope it will be back in stock in some time.
I've got Lucy on the case. I mail her twice weekly and have so far bought 4 watches from her. If we band together we might get a bit of a deal.
I know that if they release an improved version on the 03 with better lume I would buy two... a SS w/ black w/ white numerals and hands and a Black w/ blue hands and numerals.
If they just do a standard re-issue I will probably buy one. I'm leaning towards the black & blue simply becasue I have nothing like it in my collection.
