Bentley Centenary Premier Arrives...

Dec 15, 2019,12:53 PM
 

A few weeks ago, I had the chance to see the Bentley Centenary Premier in the metal, and instantly fell in love with this piece.  So, Santa has come early this year, before this limited edition disappears.

Words really cannot describe the beauty of this Premier -- it is simply stunning.  And, in that sense, this is not just simply a very nice Breitling -- it is a very nice watch, period.  

Each dial in this limited edition is different, given the nature of the burl elm.  The pattern and shading of the wood dial is just extraordinary.  On my particular piece, the date window is surrounded by a darker swirl of burl -- so, the effect is that the outline of the date window disappears, and the date seems to magically appear in the center of a knot in the wood.  Really cool.

The strap is beautiful, as well, and sets off the dial nicely.

All in all, I can't give Breitling enough kudos for bringing this piece to life...

Breitling lost its way for a while...

But there is a strong heritage to build on, and things are moving in a good direction, I think. Glad you like this piece!

That is a great looking Premier.

I have the green dial Bentley version and I believe that the Premier is one of the best looking chronographs on the market.

Thanks ā€” congrats on your Bentley Premier, as well!

That's a fine looking piece! I got to try one on a couple weeks ago at a boutique. I love the dial and the strap. I wish it was just a tad thinner though.

Thanks! šŸ˜Š [nt]
