Post subject: | My New Bentley GT |
I just purchased this beautiful Bentley GT. I am hooked! This is my third Ling in 6 months and this is by far my favorite…at least for now. My wrist is just too small for a full ling but on my wrist this looks just rite. Trust me, if I could inject my wrist with some fat I would…lol ![]() ![]() |

Splendid! Three in six months... that may qualify as an addiction. ![]() Dave |

Gorgeous. I've 'bucked up' enough to lay a deposit on a Motors T recently, all I have to do now is 'buff up' my forearms to support it. Yes its a big watch, but you carry it well. |

That is an amazing looking watch! I really like the day/date display on that movement, just fills out the dial more and gives it an added touch. Now that I see a picture of it on your wrist, I would be tempted to try it. I had a Bentley 6.75 on last week, and it was just too big, and just not suitable for my lifestyle, albeit a beautiful watch. I got a Steelfish, which I am more than pleased with, in fact I can't take my eyes off it. I a few years, I am thinking when I retire, I might get myself a Bentley if I can afford it. Thanks for the pics, the GT might just suit me more. Have a great time with it! Cheers, Carl |

Beautiful GT! I love the watch. Your wrists don't look too much smaller than mine... i think the Motors would look alright on there but you'd have to get used to it ![]() ![]() |

LouWal, Well done man! I too am the proud owner of a GT. It’s by far my favourite watch. I went for the black dial as I dig the contrast with the silver sub-dials. With the white dial, the GT looks more refined and understated – nice watch dude! Apart, perhaps, from some of the awesome French BRMs – which unfortunately don’t come with a factory bracelet (and are very hard to find outside of Europe) - you have the coolest chronograph on the market. Sportback – your countrymen are masters of case design. One day, I will get a BRM, they are so cool! After buying my GT, the Rolex Daytonas and Panerai spend a lot of time in the drawer – the GT perfectly combines old-world aesthetics with a modern & classy case design. And, unlike the “Full Lings”, the GT doesn’t look silly on a normally proportioned wrist. At 44.8mm, it’s still a big watch! The Bentley Motors etc. are great, but unless you’re a really big dude, they tend to look a bit “try-hardish”. You know, a look that says “I have a ‘big bling-bling’”! For sophisticated gentlemen, the GT is right on the money! |

Great looking GT, congrats on the new watch! I was at 2 new lings in 3 months, but I've been keeping myself in check since then. but, the urge to pick up a new piece is growing more and more every day. maybe it is an addiction but at least its healthier than most others, except on the wallet. |
