I'll soon have my Bentley 6.75 and am not getting any bites on my BB for my bottom line price so giving some thought to keeping it. But does it make sense only having two watches and both being sort of alike? Or maybe if I can't get what I want for the BB trade it for a Steelfish on an Ocean racer and cash to change things up a bit? I would probably get more use out of the fish as a daily wearer so maybe that's the way to go... but I am having a hard time to part with the BB. Yes, I'm having an important Thursday. :lingsrock:

Your BB is sweet and at a fair price. I miss mine and if I had the funds, I would buy it. I don't think they are THAT similar, but if you are not happy, I'm sure it will sell, or you could get a nice trade for it to change things up. Both wathes are superb IMHO. :D

I don't think they're that similar. I'd just buy another strap or 2 for the Blackbird if you keep it and that should solve your problem.

I was thinking that too. My only issue right now is I put the sale in my budget for next month so if I keep it, it will make things pretty tight. Plus your friend George might be sending the goons soon to collect the balance I owe him. LOL (but that means I will soon have the watch) :lingsrock:

Which one is the BB, and how much are you selling it for?

As usual, I will go against the grain and state that I think the two watches are very similar. Outside of the bezel and some very minor cosmetic things, it's basically the same watch. I don't know if you "have" to sell one - if you love them that much - keep the BB as your "beater" and use the Bentley for nicer occasions.....?

Sell the BB if you need the money, but not because the watches are too similar. They're not, and they're both cool!

The watches have essentially the same movement, so I guess that they are similar in that regard, but the implementation is vastly different. I don't think different or similar matters though - if you are going to wear and enjoy both watches then keep them both. If one of them is going to be effectively replaced by the other, or if you feel that you are strapping the same watch on when you pick either up, then probably best to move one on.

That said, if it were me and only one was a keeper, it would be the BB that stayed, not the Bentley.
