why does this watch get no love?
i love the fucntion, i love the way it looks on rubber, not a huge fan on a bracelet, but its FANTASTIC rose gold on black rubber, but it seems that its never talked about here, like a stepchild watch like the flying b and b01.

what gives?

I really like the look but on the wrist, it sits funny on me. Like its too flat or something.

SA is perfect however.

Personally I find the Bentley GMT just too over the top. The bezel is too thick, I don't like the offset lugs, the dial just seems a bit less sophisticated compared to the original Motors or the 6.75. I guess I jut find it a bit clumsy looking.

Yeah, I agree with all that has been said, especially the bezel. I also find the date very difficult to read, and I don't find it value for money.

I have to say though, that although I would never want a Bentley on rubber (that's just me), the publicity shot of the gold GMT on rubber is a stunning photo.
