From my understanding dumbbells presses are slightly tougher than Barbell as it requires more focus and stability. If I do 2 x 25 kg dumbbells presses, do you think I can bench at 70 kg for barbell? I know this very much depends on individual, just to have a rough idea on differences in weights.
I don't have access to gym yet thus my training can only work on dumbbells at home.

One is not superior to the other, both has its benefits.

As for weight, yeah, sounds about right.
