The stainless 6.75's they have for sale right now are only $5388 USD I would get one if I were you.

I know. It's pretty tempting as that's a fine price, although I do need to factor in VAT and import duty too, so I would need to add around 20% in total.....

Hmmmmm.... tempting.... although I don't want to be too tempted or else I'll be calling on your debt management services! (And I'll quite possibly be needing a relationship counsellor too!)

Driver8,

The 6.75 is nice but I never understood why guys would go for those when they don't have the 30 second chronograph. That is a very cool and unique feature of the Bentley Motors and they have one for sale there too for about $5380 with a Black dial. If you are going for a Bentley you might as well get the 30 second chronograph. You seem to be a guy that likes to have at least 2 of each model anyway .

Congrats on your new sa :D --GREAT WATCH :D I think my next purchase will be the SA, however the Bently 6.75 is on the short list. How about some pics ? :) Talk about a busted 2008 budget I broke that in Nov 2007 with my Legende purchase :) Enjoy your day!!

Driver8,

Lingman and I were at our Breitling repair guys yesterday and he had to order a spring for my pusher on my Nav World. I will keep you posted. He has not had a chance to look at the GMT yet though so who knows about that but hopefully it is an easy fix.

Ling-Man,
Yeah I agree, I love my black dial Motors, and it's definitely the first Bentley to go for IMHO as the 30 second chronograph is unique to the Bentley range. That said, the 6.75 runs it a close second to I think I might need one as well. :wink:

Driver8,

Why not just get and All Gold Bentley ? Then you would be a "monumental" Ling man.

Roffensian,

One of the definitions of sanity is the ability to differentiate between "differences", "similarities", and "identities". An all Gold watch has nothing to do whatsoever with being a pimp. Some watches worn by pimps may be "Similar" but not identical to tasteful all Gold Lings. Very conservative gentlemen have been wearing all Gold watches for many many years that are not even remotely SIMILAR to Pimps and certainly not IDENTICAL to them.
