Im stuck on deciding which to get....love the blackbird,but iv had one although on a strap,this one has come up on a bracelet...or the 6.75,black dial,black croc deployant,could anyone tell me if the 6.75 has a completly polished case or are the edges brushed..cant seem to find any exact pics....leaning towards the bentley,even though is probally the most copied watch out there!!!....big watch yep....but as its not to thick i think it will be a comfy and easy watch to wear....

The case is all polished. Blackbird or the 6.75... To me the blackbird is more like a everyday watch and the bentley for more finer occasions :wink:

I'd go for the brushed black-dial Blackbird, on either black Ocean Racer rubber strap, or bracelet. For me the Bentleys are just too expensive, without a real substance -- other than the name "Bentley".

I have both and I like the blackbird much more than my 6.75 because I feel that I can wear my blackbird more frequently because of its smaller size. But I love the 12 o'clock big date window on both!!

imagine that...from the guy who defiantly hates the Bentley line :?

you have two great choices and yet so different so you have to make that decision. I personally like the design style and squared shape of the 6.75. You'll enjoy either one :lingsrock:

Motors speed with black dial is a killer looking watch. I have 6.75 in storm gray and it seems to go with most everything.
