Torn between either of these three and can't decide. About $700 US difference (more) bewteen the Bentley and the Navitimer.

1. Bentley GT White face with etching and black croc strap with deployment.
2. Bentley GT Gray Storm face with etching and black croc strap with deployment.
3. Silver face Navitimer World with brown croc strap with deployment.

Have two good "water" watches (Omega Planet Ocean and Chrono Avenger Titanium) so looking for a dress watch. Being that the PO has a black face and the CA has a blue face, was leaning towards a white or silver face. Opinons appreciated.

I'd go with the Navi myself. IMO it's the best looking watch of the bunch. Also i want one...so my opinion is what it's worth...

Navi world all the way!!! I think the world is the nicest watch in the entire navitimer lineup....great choice with the white face world, that watch on a brown croc strap is spectacular.

Navi World by a mile IMO. Apologies to the GT owners here but I always find the GT to be a bit "Bentley Lite". The Navi World is a modern take on an absolute classic, and the Navi look is quite unlike anything else on the market.

I don't own either of these, but were I to purchase one, it'd be the Navitimer.

If you want a Bentley, get the Motors, MotorsT or 6.75. The Bentley GT is smaller and i think youll always wish you had gotten the larger version. But if its between the GT or World, Id go with the world. I bet youll end up with both one day :lol:

I have to disagree! :guns:
I bought the GT because I like the face color and configuration. I do wish it was larger but have never regretted having a smaller watch(it's not that small). If the 6.75 or the Motors had the GT dial, then I would have gotten one but I found having the subdials and the dial being the same color quite boring. Plus I really like the day/date feature.
