Seems like the 1000m version is housing an ETA 2892-2 from what I've been reading...Or a SW200(Sellita clone of the 2824-2).
Whatever: They all house ETA movements anyway, except the tourbillon model.
B&R makes nice watches but there's NO WAY in a lifetime that I will ever pay a such price for a watch housing a 200$ mass produced movement.
I just can't wait for them to be forced to invest them huge profits in making them own movements when ETA will cut them off: That will be about time.
Sellita will never match the market demand ETA was barely reaching anyway, so good luck to those overpriced brands.
I concur. B&R is significantly overpriced, considering the stock movement inside and lack of company heritage. Kudos to those who have enough resources so that these issues don't matter much to them, but I have to consider value when I buy. B&R doesn't offer much, IMO.
I'd certainly take one as a gift, though!
