As many have said, I like the green bezel but it's not a big deal since it's just cosmetic. I also think it reminds me too much of the LV Sub. I wouldn't mind seeing them bring out a different bracelet option for the SOH and SOHC, but I get how the mesh bracelet has history behind it.

I'm not a fan of either of the bentley models although I'm curious to see real life shots of the finish on the cases.

Thanks for the updates. Like others have said, hopefully these are pre-basel teasers and they will have some more substanstial offerings at the show.
By the way I've always liked the Blackbird and the BBB (black-blackbird ??) with the red handed sub -dials is starting to "tease" me! (marketing at its best? lol)

Not giving up just yet, Keeping my hopes up for "news" at Basel.

Nice updates. I wonder what the silver dial would look like with that green bezel or any of the other bezels for the SOHC/SOH. I think that would be more sportier feel to it.
Keep the updates coming. I do like the reworking of the GMT though.

Green bezel really suits the SOH, I think. Yes it's the Sub LV look, as everyone has said, but I think the Sub LV looks good.

Certainly this is not the most exciting development imaginable, but I am thinking about a SOH at the moment, and if this one turned up at my AD I would seriously consider getting it instead of black/black.

Hmmmm, the new SO looks quite interesting, although the bezel numbers look supiciously "Buck Rogers" like. :? At least it's not just a cosmetic reworking. :thumbsup: (Or if it is, it's a bit more elaborate than just a change of bezel colour)

That new Bentley looks..........er....... busy. Wouldn't mind see a proper pictures though.

I'd like to see some of the other dial colors the Superocean will come with. The black and yellow is different, but I don't know what to think of the bezel.

Bentley supposedly has a caliber 26 and a new bezel from what I hear.

I think that the colour of the inner bezel (the yellow in the photo) changes on the SO depending on dial, but don't know what to. I am told no mechanical changes to the SO.
