Are current Bentleys and Navitimers....

Recommended Posts

Forgive the noobish question, but are the current Navitimers and Bentleys the same as the ones reviewed last year by members here such as By-Tor? I am fairly new to reps and after enough reading to make my balls ache, I haven't come to the conclusion whether there are updated models or not floating around from our trusted dealers.

It seems that they all carry the same models, however, one of the dealers currently listed a sale stating 'clearing out old stock' and it got me thinking. Is there a chance of purchasing an 'older model' rep currently from our dealers? I have my eyes on a Bentley Motors or 6.75 and a Navi.

From what I am reading, the most important feature lately on the better reps is the new Asian 7750 and a light AR is this correct?

for the most part, they are all pretty current...but with the possibility some may have slight variations from generation to generation. Most Bentleys and Navitimers offered from our dealers here carry the most dated versions. *doesnt hurt to ask*

As far as the Bentleys go, there have been no updates that I am aware of, only different models. The GT for example has a new bracelet and caseback. The old version is just as good, and just as accurate, its just not the current model. The Navitimers have had several generations. The old one, like mine features a 21k 7750. In some ways it is more accurate than the current model, in other ways it is not. I do not believe any of the dealers carry the old version anymore, so basically all dealers are selling the same "New" version.

For the 6.75, the date color was initially too red, that has been corrected and is now a more accurate marroon. Still think there are both versions circulating, so make sure you a getting the darker one if you go with the Bentley. Breitlings are known for their strong AR. and the AR on the 6.75. is no where near the gen. (quite an easy tell.) But not a deal breaker, as you can alway send the watch to one of our modders for fixin'

Good to know about the 6.75s. I am still deciding between the Motors and 6.75. I really like the 6.75 with the big date but it is commanding hefty price where I see the Motors going for over $100 less in some cases.

The Bentleys I want are all white faced. Any thoughts on the coloring of the white faced Bentleys? I hear they are a tad on the creamy side and totally look like it from the pictures posted by the dealers.
