Hi all, quick question, is anyone wearing a Bentley GT (Or larger) on a 7 inch wrist , and if so could you please post up some wrist shot pictures.

I'm thinking fo going for a Bentley GT, but as I only have a wrist slightly bigger than 7 inch (7 and a quarter) I am unsure as to if this would look too large on me, I'm not the biggest guy in the world at 5ft 8 inches and 12 stones, hence the uncertainty as to if this piece would look / wear ok on me, your help / advice / comments and most of all, pictures would be very much appreciated,

Thank you and regards,
The Soulman.

If you look at any of my videos and any of my wristshots from the Gallery, you can see what watches look like on my wrist. I have several in the 44mm+ category... No Bentley GT, but I have shots and videos of Bentley Motors, Panerai, Super Avengers and some others in that size range. My wrists are 6 3/4" around, and I'm about 5'7" on a good day :D

My blog also has lots of shots:

lol...all this time ive been thinking my wrists were about 6.5" but I remeasured just for the sake of this thread. Turns out they are just about 7". Sorry to anybody who bought anything based on my wrist size advice :lol;

Anyways, I tried the GT on and it fits like a glove. Its DEFINITELY not too big for you. Its also on my hit list.

Come on good people, surely someone has a decent shot of a Bentley GT on a 7 inch (ish) wrist ?,

Not a GT, but a few other large ones if you still want them. And the wrist is about 7,5 inches.

personally I think you could go even bigger with a 7" wrist. I used to wear a Motors T with a 6.5" wrist.. lol

I believe the terms is.. FULL LING

But best bet I think is to go to an AD and try one on for size!
