I would go all out with the 'world'. I believe its one of Breitling's most striking watches but then again I love a white dial and I love the bracelet. I had a choice earlier on in the year between the World and a Legende but I went for the Legende which I think is a very 'under-rated' Breitling.

The Legende has now gone but that was because of need rather than want but someday I'll get him back but I may just plump for a World first!

Cheers


Saying all that and bearing in mind your looking at the Bentley GT I remembered about the post below. A stunning looking watch and one that maybe knocks the shit out of my earlier comment as I could see me having that bad boy!

Navi world, white face. I don't care for the 'studded' gt bezel. Large and in your faced on polished steel, but also looks absolutely gorgeous on on leather, something that I haven't seen too many gts pull off too well. Also, its a Navitimer, the most famous of Breitlings!

Navi world is an iconic Breitling...and always will be. I don't think that can be said for anything in the B4B line. This is an easy decision for me...

World for me. Good size and far less blingy. Classic historic navitimer face complete with slide rule. GMT hand. Fantastic watch! Really not into the B4B's, not that I could pull one off anyway.

WR is important if you're the kind of guy who can't live a second without a watch on your wrist like me. If it would be my first watch, I probably pick the GT between those two watches only for this reason. I don't like Bentleys and the Navi World is a really nice watch.
As I mentioned in many posts, a white dial navi with camel strap! :drool:
