Slightly odd they went for 'R. De Janeiro' when it would only take one extra letter to make it the full name!

Both the black dials look really nice but the RG Bentley GMT is hideous on that strap!

Anyone notice that the slide rule is off center on the chronomatic?

info on the bentley:

A great traveller, the Bentley GMT offers you the world on your wrist. The emblematic red-triangle hand moves round the dial once every 24 hours, while the rotating flange with the names of 24 cities representing the 24 time zones indicates the times around the world.

Another innovation, the chronograph centre hand moves round the dial every 30 seconds instead of the usual 60 for a very accurate reading, like an invitation to travel or to break records.

Movement is the Breitling caliber 47B, with 38 jewels and COSC-certification as a chronometer.

The case, in 18kt rose gold or in stainless steel, measures 49mm. It has an AR-coated sapphire crystal and it is water resistant to 100 meters. Dials can be had in black, silver or bronze. It comes in a rubber strap or on the Speed bracelet.


-------------------------------------
Chrono-matic

Movement is the automatic Breitling caliber 14 with 40 jewels and COSC-certification as a chronometer.

The case, in stainless steel or 18kt rose gold, measures 49mm. It has a convex sapphire crystal with AR-coating and is water resistant to 30 meters. Dials can be had in black or bronze.

Limited Edition of 500 Pieces in 18kt Rose Gold

A tribute to a pioneer, a tribute to an era. Breitling, the company that invented the first self-winding chronograph movement in 1969, is now reviving one of the most celebrated models in its history – and probably in the history of Swiss watchmaking. The 2008 version of the legendary Chrono-Matic 49 boasts angular, taut lines that are inspired by the original’s generous size and sixties-seventies look. A classic vintage model with a contemporary air, on land, on sea and in the skies.
