I thought I would post this gallery. I was in the Clearwater/Tampa area last week. My wife and I were in the International mall in Tampa looking for a ipad2 ( no luck ). I stopped in at a Breitling AD - Old Northeast Jewleres. I was talked with a really nice guy names Sal. He noticed I was interested in the Bentley's so he brought out a watch he had just received. He said they only made 25 of them and they got the only one shipped to the US. He allowed me to put it on and take some pics. Wow, I dont love watched with diamonds, but this one I did. It was really nice looking and it should be with a 62K retail price tag on it. Enjoy the pics, they were taken on my iphone so they aren't the best.

That is a very classy and well done watch. Not gaudy like some of the overdone bezels you see. If the price is 65k, the diamonds must be very good quality. What a beauty.

Here are the pics in case people dont want to have to click the link

A $65,000 watch should have crocodile leather for the strap.

I could picture it with a bespoke white alligator strap, very Middle East-like and kitsch, yet impressive to look at.

Great pictures! Did you notice the gold 'overweight'?

That clasp more than makes up for the rubber strap. WOW :lingsrock:

Sorry, but I respectfully disagree with you completely on this one - I think it looks utterly hideous. And that clasp has Liberace written all over it. Sorry, not my thing at all.

The subdials aren't refined enough, in my opinion, and the size makes it all the more ostentatious. Who would seriously consider wearing it, other than some tacky arab sheikh or porn tycoon, yet the precious metal and stones makes it worth the time, no matter how much you hate it. My dream rose gold watch is the A. Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk, for less $$ and, in my opinion, the perfect antagonist in terms of style and sobriety!

Just because you show a bit of opulense with your watch, doesn't mean you're a pimp.
