Hello,

I just have a quick question about these watches. I went to the AD today and I couldn't decide which one I should go for....
Which model do you prefer? I'm thinking to get a bronze dial with brown croc.
Also, I couldn't see the anthracite dial model. Is it gray glossy dial like the bronze?

Have a nice weekend~

IMO a better comparison is the Motors T and 6.75.

And my choice is the 6.75 by a mile.

I have both a Motors and a 6.75, and while I love both (hence why I bought both!), if I could only have one I'd have the Motors. Two reasons for that - firstly it's a little thinner, which I find more in keeping with the more "sophisticated" Bentley lines, and secondly you will only find the B25 movement from the Motors in Bentley models (Motors and Motors T). The B44 from the 6.75 has been found in a number of Breitling watches in the past includinbg the current Blackbird. Personally, I think the 30 second chronograph on the Motors is it's USP.

Thanks for the info. I will visit the AD again sometime next week so I have to decide which one I should go for....
For the anthracite dial.......I couldn't find any info......is it just a regular grey color or shiny dial like the bronze one has?

Can't say I've ever noticed one way or the other actually. Sorry. (My Motors is black and my 6.75 is silver)
