here they are! I ordered the 6.75 Speed about two weeks ago through my AD and as i was waiting for it to come in i came across this fantastic SA right here on the the for sale section and couldn't resist. I was completely unaware that i would receive both within 24 hours of each other.

coincidently they are both on blue bands. the bentley came as specified on a smooth leather with deployant and the SA on blue croco with a tang buckle.

both are truly gorgeous and have very different personalities, but the 6.75 has been the watch of my dreams for some time now and when the Speed version was anounced for 2009 i knew i had to make it mine

new Breitling For Bentley box is really cool...especially to a car nut such as myself

a side by side comparison of a 6.75 and 6.75 Speed
I hope to become a more regular member in this great community!

ps
I am thinking about picking up a bracelet for the SA, but in the mean time does anybody have a good source for some multi-colored/materialed straps? since both watches use the same band size it will be easy to mix and match.

Welcome aboard and very nice watches to start you off!

If I was you though, I'd put the black croco on the 6.75, and the black calf (if it isn't also croco - I cant tell in the pics) on the SA. My 6.75 lives on black croco and it really goes well with the dressiness of the 6.75 dial.

Both are great watches!

Welcome to BreitlingSource, and congratulations.

In terms of colourful straps - I have to stick to my staple recommendation - www.abp-paris.com. Far from cheap but the quality and variety (colour and leather) is superb.
