Breitling 6.75

[richard lawton]

Hi All

Just recently received a Bentley 6.75 from Joshua.

Really a great watch, very large and heavy, but very

well constructed.

Keeping excellent time over the last 3 days (+3/4 sec per day)

Chronograph functions perfectly all sub dials return to 12.00

What is also great is the sec at 3.00 and the fact that the big date

goes from 31 to 01 (As it should) There does not seem to be any problems

with this movement. I fitted the brown leather strap to match the

bronze dial, as I prefer leather straps to bracelets.

One final note the AR is also good (Exactly the

same as my original emergency mission)

All in all a really good watch and a valuable addition to my collection

Richard.

Hi Richard,

a really nice Breitling you have there. The colour makes it really unique : after all, we always have white, black and blue... That's a watch I would proudly wear, if it was a bit smaller. Is the strap the one you got with it, as it looks too good for a rep strap.

For the seconds @3, there have been some topics already, but I think it's worth asking again : is this really a new movement, or a standard 7750 clone put upside down, where only the crown would have been moved ?

Would you mind shooting the caseback ? Thx !

In your opinion, does the white part of the rehaut look too wide like on the GT rep?

Hi,

No it's a chocolate brown strap from don. (Orig came with a bracelet)

No it's much improved on this model and very close to the original.

Classy looking and beautiful. I, too, am curious how the movement was modified?

would you say the AR is better than the Bentley 30 's version with seconds at 9? I have one of them and its a great watch but horrible AR. I think i may have to pul the trigger on this. As another member mentioned the white part around the bezel does seem a bit thicker but i could be totally wrong. How long did it take for you to get yours?

Wondering the same about the AR. Is it really a pronounced purplish blue tint on the crystal like on the genuine?

Richard...you've picked a nice one...my fav dial colour...today i was looking at it in a watch shop in Munchen...they are really nice...bet the rep is a nice one too...the sec at position 3...the good big date....I was looking to buy one...will have to wait a little to see how is the mvt and to put aside some cash since i have just agreed with you on something very special....

Hi All

The white around the dial is almost exactly the same as the original

and if you look at the second photo I tried to show you the AR Coating

It's a vast improvement on the previously Bentley, and looks just like

my original Breitling emergency mission.

Beautiful watch! I was wondering though, why are there two different date colors for this watch? Checking google images there are gens with red font and other gens with black font....are there two editions?

Richard,

Thanks for the review. You're a brave man for being among the first to test that movement. It's a lovely watch and I may drop a dime on that one soon. Wear it well!
