Ive been looking for over 6 months now and finally purchased yesterday and thought I'd share. This is the watch except I have the steel bracelet. I tried taking pictures but couldnt get the clarity I wanted so this will have to do.

http://www.authenticwatches.com/breitli ... 25363.html

I hope I made a good choice. This is the first real piece I have bought myself ever. I hope you like. Anything special I need to do? I am already thinking of looking into different bezzel options. Thanks take care

Nice first choice!

Great choice! That is my favourite Bentley, and the price is great too. I saw one at my AD's a few months ago, it was $8050. before the increase, so I can imagine it would be over 9 grand now.
Good that you got a steel bracelet, too, although the leather looks great.
Cheers,
Carl

Ya I spent 30 mins lastnight trying to take some decent pics but cant get close and clear enough like I see some pics. I have a really nice camera as well and it was giving me fits. Any tricks? Special camera settings? Flash seemed to make things worse. I will try again this evening. thanks everybody.

There is the problem. Take them during the day with natural light and a good angle. No flash necessary. You may have to use the macro setting as well.

Hello and welcome to the forum!

Congratulations, that's a really nice watch! Love the color, and especially on the Speed bracelet too.

I just wonder one thing - did you buy the exact one from your link, without manufacturer serial numbers? I don't want to ruin your day, but if so it'll be a little bit trickier when it's service time as it has to go back to authenticwatches.

Anyway, enjoy the great watch!
