Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Gold is praised for its distinctive and attractive design, warm color, intricate skeletonized movement, and balanced 40mm wearability. However, its price, particularly at over $30,000, is widely considered a significant drawback, especially given its Sellita SW300-based movement. Some reviewers and owners note the movement's 38-hour power reserve as a potential drawback for enthusiasts. Overall, owners and reviewers find the Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Gold to be a visually striking watch, but its high price point relative to its movement is a consistent point of contention.
The case finishing and skeletonized dial are highly praised. The 38-hour power reserve is a point of concern.
The Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton is noted for its 40mm steel case, sapphire crystal, and 150m water resistance. One owner reports strong performance from the TMI NH70 movement at -3 seconds per day, with very nice lume. On balance, owners find the Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton to be a pretty nice option, particularly for its movement performance and lume.
