For Signaholic ... I too like B&R watches and last year was able to purchase two; a Blue Ceramic (counterpart to the Military Ceramic) and Compass. The Compass (limited production) is larger, has a cool steampunk look, and came with the cloth patch. The Blue Ceramic is my 'go to' watch when spending an evening listening to live jazz. Otherwise, they are great time keepers.

your very welcome rniederman:)
WOW Rob, both of these are killer timepieces! You're lucky to own that Compass, is it a 46mm?
Thanks, vetraio50!
Thanks, Signaholic ... the Compass (BR 01-92 is 46mm and had a very limited run of 500. The coating is PVD and not ceramic. It's really a different look and fun to wear. BTW, I looked at the Military Ceramic as well.
Very Nice, thanks for sharing!!

Thanks, kerry10456!
Thanks, walksoftly!
Thanks, Phil!
Looks like I will be buying a Compass soon Rob!
The Compass is very cool, but be aware that it is PVD and not ceramic. The finish will wear.
