Breitling Bentley Clasp

I noticed theres a differnce on the old clasp an new one. When did the new clasp come out (Breitling made for Bentley)? I think the old ones just say only Breitling.

I had a dealer tell me the watch I wanted to buy was brand new but I noticed the clasp only said Breitling so I think he tried to pull a fast one on me

Any experts here?

You are 100% correct...
I think it's similar to the ROLEXROLEXROLEX engraving around the rehaut on the submariner...
The newest ones will have "for Bentley" in a rectangle on the clasp.

It does add a bit extra panache to the clasp in my opinion.

Tourneau in San fran had one, but they wanted retail ($8400) plus 8.5% tax
I bought mine, also new, unworn, but with "for Bentley" from an independant
for $6400...
that would have been $200 per letter!

but really..when you wear one of these models, I don't think anyone is looking at the clasp...most can't get past the dial and the case.
