hi guys quick question regarding this watch. I was told by the AD that ling basically did some touch ups to the bentley series subtle things like cleaning up the tachometer and chroming out the sub dials on the chrono. I was wondering if anyone knows if the internals have been given and overhaul? are the new 2009's and up different internally than the older bentley motors internals? do all bentley series lings have the same movements?

thanks in advance and sorry for the noob questions.

I don't believe anything was changed on the inside. Just the small details you mentioned. I have the Motors T and the two are still very much alike.

u sir are correct it is new. but there are differences. as mentioned in my post above. the chrono sub dials have been chromed out and the tach has been touched up. aside from that i was curious about the internals.

The speed version was the 2009 Basel announcement. All changes are cosmetic only.
