The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I just purchased this beautiful Bentley GT. I am hooked! This is my third Ling in 6 months and this is by far my favorite…at least for now. My wrist is just too small for a full ling but on my wrist this looks just rite. Trust me, if I could inject my wrist with some fat I would…lol

Splendid! Three in six months... that may qualify as an addiction.

Gorgeous. I've 'bucked up' enough to lay a deposit on a Motors T recently, all I have to do now is 'buff up' my forearms to support it. Yes its a big watch, but you carry it well.

Thanks! welcome to the forum Therode82 we are almost neighbors…I am just over Ben Franklin Bridge, Mount Laurel NJ.

That is an amazing looking watch! I really like the day/date display on that movement, just fills out the dial more and gives it an added touch. Now that I see a picture of it on your wrist, I would be tempted to try it. I had a Bentley 6.75 on last week, and it was just too big, and just not suitable for my lifestyle, albeit a beautiful watch. I got a Steelfish, which I am more than pleased with, in fact I can't take my eyes off it. I a few years, I am thinking when I retire, I might get myself a Bentley if I can afford it. Thanks for the pics, the GT might just suit me more.
Have a great time with it!
Cheers,
Carl

Beautiful GT! I love the watch. Your wrists don't look too much smaller than mine... i think the Motors would look alright on there but you'd have to get used to it

LouWal,

Well done man!

I too am the proud owner of a GT. It’s by far my favourite watch. I went for the black dial as I dig the contrast with the silver sub-dials. With the white dial, the GT looks more refined and understated – nice watch dude!

Apart, perhaps, from some of the awesome French BRMs – which unfortunately don’t come with a factory bracelet (and are very hard to find outside of Europe) - you have the coolest chronograph on the market.

Sportback – your countrymen are masters of case design. One day, I will get a BRM, they are so cool!

After buying my GT, the Rolex Daytonas and Panerai spend a lot of time in the drawer – the GT perfectly combines old-world aesthetics with a modern & classy case design. And, unlike the “Full Lings”, the GT doesn’t look silly on a normally proportioned wrist. At 44.8mm, it’s still a big watch!

The Bentley Motors etc. are great, but unless you’re a really big dude, they tend to look a bit “try-hardish”. You know, a look that says “I have a ‘big bling-bling’”!

For sophisticated gentlemen, the GT is right on the money!

Great looking GT, congrats on the new watch! I was at 2 new lings in 3 months, but I've been keeping myself in check since then. but, the urge to pick up a new piece is growing more and more every day. maybe it is an addiction but at least its healthier than most others, except on the wallet.
