monkeynutsack Posted April 15, 2011 Report Posted April 15, 2011 Hi guys, whaddya think? Any flaws. My concerns: 1. date could sit a little higher in the date wheel window 2. Is the space between the bezel and case too much or the norm? 3. the seperate blue dial date window on the right has some unfinished material sticking out from the top 4. Kind of looks like the new batch could have double AR (not a concern )) or could just be the angle of the shots Chime in guys! thanks On2 the pics 1
Dave123 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Posted April 15, 2011 Standard 6.75 rep,been around a long time,all the same. Looks fine to me,they all look like that. They do not have double AR though, however that pic was taken its flattering in that department...
maxman Posted April 15, 2011 Report Posted April 15, 2011 Oldie but goodie,as Dave says "they all look like that" nice rep. Mike

BMW760 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 What are you doing with all those dials!? I have seen the cartel selling a new "updated" Ultimate Bentley 6.75 Is that what this is ? I'm curious if a GEN dial will swap right in.

I'm curious if a GEN dial will swap right in. Ya they updated it about 3 years ago with a darker date font,not the shade of gen but better then the usually found bright red. Dunno about the gen dial or if you could find one,but the dual DW's not lining up properly on alot of dates bug's me about these. That said,not a bad rep if you are not overly fussy. Here is one i had with Chief's AR and a gen strap,got rid of a few years ago.
alanytical Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 This is a more recent update to the old 6.75, it's about a year old, it copies the new 6.75 Speed. Updates include the center "B" sticker on the case back rim, the bezel is slightly different and the sub-dials have silver rings around them, unlike the old version.

Did they add more bubble wrap to the packaging in other words...
BMW760 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 Dave, I am aware of the one you describe. I had this watch in a GEN when it was first released. Divorce forced sale, and some years later , I'm chasing building a Franken Bentley Or I may just have to pass and buy a GEN again. Lol I was refrring to a "new" update. I too don't see much. I purchased 3 different 6.75's in the last 2 weeks. I'm going to be getting them soon and see which is best to start my project with. If you have any tips , pass them on
frankpower88 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 a year ago, the gen 6.75 changed. now its the 6.75 speed. the rep is now the rep of the 6.75 speed. so the watch that the OP is showing is not the same as the old 6.75. personnally, i prefer the old style, rep and gen, especially the bezel, and the subdial surrounds on the speed are too much.

You da man Frank,i didnt even notice. Do you know if the double AR this now?,i dont see a listing for it on Josh's site.
frankpower88 Posted April 23, 2011 Report Posted April 23, 2011 unfortunately, i dont think it has double AR
BMW760 Posted April 24, 2011 Report Posted April 24, 2011 Dave, I have a new one of these 6.75's heading my way, from the UK. I'll take a bunch of pics when I get it, and we can all dissect it. The person I got it from is very knowledgable, and tells me that there are noticeable updates. We shall see.

partypants Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 (edited) just wondering.... so comparing this one to the breitlingbentley website the rep. has the "B" sticker on the back case where as the genuine doesnt.... did some of the genuine come with a sticker on the back?? Edited June 8, 2011 by partypants
caracarnj Posted July 15, 2011 Report Posted July 15, 2011 What a watch. After 3 years i still find it hard to resist a Bentley Breit.
