A curious thing about dive watches, they are almost invariably round.  And in fairness, that makes sense seeing as most watches by and large are round ; )

And you know what?  A limited world view as it pertains to the shape of dive watches is, well it’s a bit limiting ; )  

Now in the past, Bell & Ross did produce a round diver or two.  And full disclosure, I don’t know that I ever fully warmed to the whole Bell & Ross “instrument panel” pilot watch thing.  But as it pertains to a diver – and as this baby is bronze, in many instances it will be more of a desk diver, it’s got a certain “what’s-it”.

Sorta’ steampunk.  It’s the type of watch that Jules Verne would have given Captain Nemo if the movie was being re-cast with Henry Rollins as Nemo, and the soundtrack by The Clash.  And in the best possible way!  This is the BR 03-92 Diver Bronze Navy Blue.
