Fred- always heard it was June, from several sources!!!
S- I guess it will be around GBP£3500-4000, I know they had to do a lot of work on the three different rotors!!  _________________ simon@br-avo.com

4k for a gadget watch is a bit excessive imho, especially since time isn't that easy to read. I intended to buy a couple of BR01/03 in the next 2 months, I might have to revise my spoiling plan.
Is your assumption based on the price point of the Airborne / Skull watch? I ignore the RRP of the Airborne, but I assume the Radar would have the same since they are both gadget watches.
A couple of other questions, separate from the Radar. Does someone know a watchmaker customising BRO3s (eg. ProHunter for Rolex)?
And last, stupid one for the road: do you know someone from RAID who would sell me his BR  |

Roberto told us 3300€.
I really don't think it's a gadget! You must wear it once before telling this!
It's an amazing watch on the flesh, believe me.

OK Simon, let's wait until June!! _________________ BR01-94 SS White

I had the possibility to get one few month back ... If you really want one get your cash ready, they are generally sold between 7000-15000e depending on the general condition.

re: 3300 EUR on the radar, it's more like it, but a 2.8k EUR RRP would have been more sensible. You're right, I need to wear it first.
re: RAID. If I can get my hands on one in good cond + buying it from its original RAID owner, and have it certified by BR themselves, then why not. This said, I'm surprised that RAID guys are already authorised to sell them. With only 50 in circulation, the thing is rare, and with so many copies out there, one needs to know what's he's buying. But if you've got a trail, I'd be glad to know.

This one wasnt a fake and certified by some of my source in BR staff... this one had been serviced for movement control, had the original bill + service rapport all in order... _________________ Gudzyy

| @Gudzzy: ok. If you're selling it, let me know, or if you have another possible source selling one in pristine condition, let me know. In any case we can maybe find an arrangement that suits us both. |
