After much deliberation and adding to the watch fund it finally came time to pull the trigger!

It wears a bit smaller than my SA due to the smaller thickness I imagine. Which is a really nice surprise. On the rubber it is not as in your face and blingy as my SA. I think it really adds a much different look to my small collection. The Grey dial is better than I could have imagined. What a day!!!! More pics to follow.

Worst part is I forgot my Beregon at home and I can't resize the strap until late tonight. :guns:

Thank you very much Frans! I cannot wait to get the strap sized and throw it on.

Thank you natesen, the grey dial was something different for me and really caught my eye. The big date is great for sure.

Very nice - I have a 6.75 myself (silver dial). We don't see many people picking up Bentleys on here these days, but the 6.75 is still a very nice watch IMO.

I absolutely love it. The finish on it is incredible, frankly. I know some say the Bentley line is way to flashy, but I think my SA is by far more flashy than the 6.75 especially on the rubber. Its not as heavy or thick and just looks so great. I am so glad I could finally pick it up. Took 5 months to work out. Worth the wait for sure.

Nice watch, enjoy it. I love the Bentley line. Wish they did a SA with the gray dial and black subs, then again I can always get the 47mm GMT Blackeye grey. Goodluck with that beauty

Looks good, but owning a black one myself I know that pic does not do it justice! It was the one watch I wanted, loved it on day 1 and still love it just as much today. Now that I recently added the blue SA II I'm at the level of satisfaction that I'll go back to being like a normal person, just wearing what I have, and doing other things with my money.

You are right. The pictures do not do it justice. And it is complete torture that it is sitting in its box and not on my wrist right now plus I am at work until late tonight. Absolute torture.

Let's be honest with each other, we are all friends here. None of us on here are normal and no one of us on here will ever be satisfied enough with our collections to do other things with our money.

I think it's about what it should be, functional, and not look at this cool glow in the dark watch. That said, I do like the improvement on the SA II, but I think more lume suits the style a little better on it than a Bentley.

I completely agree. It is bright enough to be able to use it but not in your face saying look at me look at me.
