The more links in the bracelet, the more shine methinks. The Navi's dont have a bezel though, sot hat would have to go to the Breitling for Bentley Motors/6.75 I think.

I think the pro II bracelet is blingy on any model. I love it.

I don't think the Bently 6.75 has a true bezel. When I think of bezel, I think of a Super Avenger, or Chrono Evo.

As far as the Navitimer, I think they have a lot of shine, I enjoy my Navi-World, but the Breitling with the most shine in my opinion would be the Chrono Evo with a diamond bezel!

:huh cuz it doesnt have numbers on it?

I think the knurled bezel on the Bentley's give it more wow factor... more than the brushed ones on the windriders at least. I know i get much more compliments on my Bentley than my Evo.

I stayed away from the diamonds since i was basing it on steel... but diamonds on a Bentley would be even more shiny since its so much bigger!

Just my opinion of course.

There are two things I don't like about the Bentley 6.75...the knurled bezel, and the location of the date. The location of the date interrupts the "Flying B" logo in my opinion. I like the layout of the Motors T better.

I like the 6.75, and at first I really liked it.. but yeah.. the big date in the middle is kind of over-pronounced. I like the Motors.. i used to like the Motors T as well since it was more "sporty" and i didn't like the knurled bezel either.. but it has grown on me!

I don't know if you've tried one on.. but once I tried one on I really appreciated the knurled bezel.. like it more than the T bezel.

I'll keep that in mind the next time I'm close to an AD. I'll see if they have one is stock for me to play with!

Admin,

Quit screwing around with all these HALF LINGS and call your buddies at Joma Shop and get the All Gold Bentley. Then you will be all the way there and we can start exploring Zeniths.

I thought Admin was already a member of the Full Ling Club.

Brian,

He is a member but the all Gold Bentley is REALLY the FULL LING. I'm going to get one. To keep me amused in the meantime I may get another Bentley with a Black or Blue dial because I have the Silver one now but there is nothing out there like an ALL GOLD Bentley. When you have one of those you are beyond the FULL LING club.

All Gold?

Wow.

Even if I could swing one, I just don't think I could part with that much money. I would be so afraid of that first scratch!

If and when you do get one, I'd love to see a picture!
