Default C7.R bling

Ilike that the C7.R's decals are understated, but I wanted to add a noticeable decal to set my C7.R apart... this is what I decided <br > <br > <br >

Ask the guys who put Z51 decals on their cars. I find nothing wrong with that, or your decal, but there are some in the Forum who do.

Nice car, and decal... and placement, but did you ever consider adding it to another location- maybe the rear brake duct area, like Callaway? Maybe even the lower right front valance and the right spoiler. Just some ideas...

Those watches are great-they aren't cheap either. I've looked into getting one. Nice call on that purchase too.

The watch has been a rock! The band is more sturdy than I even hoped.

I note the yellow Superocean II and the Bell & Ross BR01-94 in the background to go with your car, too! I think I may have an idea of which colors you like!

I haven’t been To the forums in a while but i think it is important to let people know about The BRM watch.
The band is 450$ (its leather so it will need replacing periodically).
The watch looks great but:
1. My watch will periodically run fast. If i reset it 4 -5 times it will eventually tell the correct time, but for a watch that is this expensive it should at least TELL THE CORRECT TIME>
2. I sent it back to the BRM here in the USA because the lowest chronometer arm fell off. They said i dropped the watch and that’s why it broke off, but i did not. I asked why and they said the watch has been abused. This is not true. They sent back a picture of a very small ding on the part that attaches to the band. I said a “Timex would take that an keep on ticking”; they were unimpressed. Needless to say they did not fix it for free. Instead they wanted 1,400 to fix it. Fair? i will let the readers decide.
3. I bought the watch from Exquisite Time Pieces. I will say Evan Richardson was very helpful but I waited 5 months for a new band.
4. I have had it ~3 years and i have now spent 7,900 (original purchase) +450X2 (replaced the band twice)+ 850 (for repair i had a different watch repair shop fix it)

All said- I would be cautious in buying this watch. This is the most expensive watch I own (that doesn’t even always tell the correct time)
