BELL & ROSS CALL OF DUTY 2015 EVENT @ PENANG

Recently I was fortunate enough to attend a Bell & Ross Call of Duty 2015 lunch event being jointly organized by the local distributor FJ Benjamin and Malaysia Watch Forum.

The event is being held at Farguhar Mansion in Penang.
Awesome setting, excellent food, even better company...

The Menu







After the meal, we were treated to some slick illusions by Mr.Zlwin... a Bell & Ross fan himself.


After that, FJ Benjamin's Mr.Tong took the stage to explain the 2015 collection.











All in all, it was a solid presentation.
There is something for everyone... and I do mean everyone...

After the presentation, most of us thought that was it... but turns out that they prepared most of the pieces for actual viewing...
Hooray!!!


My personal favourite from the lot...
The BR-03 Desert Type.
Very nice DLC case when most of the core models have been "upgraded" to ceramic cases.
I very much preferred the stainless steel DLC cases... more old school.


My 2nd favourite of the night.
The BR-S collection with a unique mother of pearl camo dial.
Hmmm... Tempting...
Time for a Pair watch with the missus maybe?


With Diamonds.



Upgraded ceramic cases.
Easy way to see if the case is ceramic?
If the dial does not have screws on them, they're ceramic.



Unique pieces made for the Singapore Pilots Association and The Royal Brunei Armed Forces.
Not for sale... naturally...


One of the heavyweights present was the BR-X1 in Carbon Forge'
Awesome watch with really nice details.



One more look at the Desert Type.
Notice the screws on the dial?
Stainless steel DLC case...


Feels really good on the wrist.


There were loads more watches on display but I did not photograph all of it.
I apologize for that.

Hopefully these are enough to whet your appetite.
Visit an AD and check them out...

A big thank you to FJ Benjamin, Mr.Tong, Mr. Leong and all the guys present at the event.
I had a blast...
