I've finally got myself in gear and managed to take a few of my charcteristically poor photos of my new Bentley! :)

First up here's one of him on his own -

Now one on the wrist, head-on -

Another wrist shot -

And one for a sense of scale -

I must say it really is a great size watch. After the SA I was expecting the Bentley to feel even slightly larger, but the SA is actually considerably longer lug to lug. It sits very well on the wrist and is enormously comfortable, so I can't recommend the Bentley enough. If you get the chance to own one, just take it! You won't regret it at all.

Thanks for the pictures Driver8. I've been monitoring your other post, and awaiting pictures of your purchase!

Great shots showing the size of the Bently!

I am sure you will enjoy!

Thanks a lot guys! :thumbsup:

Just a shame my camera (i.e. my camera phone!) and my photographic "talents" aren't really up to the job of doing it justice! :(

Just a 3.2 mega pixel Sony Ericsson....

I may have to get a decent camera as some of the photos you guys churn out on here are pretty awesome.

Driver8,

The Bentley and The SA are the perfect combination of FULL LINGS. I'm wearing my Bentley Motors today and it feels light and streamlined. Then it's always a pleasure to go back to the HEAVY SA in a day or so. With these 2 I have to wait until they come out with something else because these 2 cover it all for me.

I would agree with you there, as I am planning to sell my Steelfish as it's never got the wrist time and actually looks a little small to me now.

However, I would recommend you possibly look at either a Navi World or a Montbrillant Legende if you want to expand the old Breitling collection a little without buying something that you may find is too small. My World sits very nicely alongside the Motors and the SA.

I'll join the choir there. My Navi Legende goes perfectly well with the SA and the 6.75. Just a shame that the other watches doesn't get so much wrist time.
