I am new to the forum, joining because of the following "Bentley Motors Special Edition" watch being up for auction locally:

I would imaginbe this is a replica, since I have seen nothing quite so gaudy. Could you sall educate me as to the other reasons?

Yes it is a fake Bentley Motors model. The subdials are far too close together, their marking are wrong and date window position is wrong. Here's a what a real one looks like to compare:
