Guys Im new to breitling since I never had a breitling before. I currently have a cartier but always wanted a breitling.
I really like the navitimer world but B4B 6.75 lately keeps bothering me. I'm thinking about spending a couple extra K's then I might as well get the 6.75.

What do you guys think? Should I just get the navitimer world or spend extra for the B4B 6.75?
I comparing both watches in black dials w/ black croc DP bands.

I thought about both as well. I'm waiting till august or so before I try and grab myself a 6.75. I picked up my World this morning and couldn't be happier. Black face on Brown Croc deployant.

either way, they are both solid pieces, but I think the Navitimer is an iconic watch that demands respect both for its beauty and complexity.

Well I'm not going to be much help on this one as I own both. :thumbsup: My 6.75 (silver dial though) is on black croco with deployant and it looks great IMO.

My World is also a silevr dial but it's on the bracelet, so I won't post up a pic.

In terms of which to go for, ultimately it's going to come down to which prefer - assuming that the cash difference isn't a problem. The World is a little more "historic" in it's looks as it is a traditional Navitimer style (if a little larger than the original Navis), and the 6.75 is more modern in design and also seen by some as a little "blingy". The big date movement in the 6.75 is a little more exclusive than the 7750 based B24 in the world, although it does have the GMT function. Both have their plus points, and IMO neither have any downsides. Both are great though, so buy which ever you prefer the most now, and just get the other one later! :D

If price wasn't a concern and I could pull off the size, if I had to choose one it would be the 6.75. Such a nice looking watch. Not that there's anything wrong with the world mind you. Classic looking and again a pretty good size. As I always say though, choose the one that speaks to you.

Personal preference, but i'd go for the 6.75 (but a very tight call). If it keeps bugging at you, then you're likely to get it sometime down the line anyways. At least thats true for me in my past experiences. Anyways happy shopping!

If the extra cost isnt going to kill you, buy the Bentley. It sounds like its the one that you would rather have if money was no object.
