Incoming 116518LN

I posted a thread the other day requesting opinions of the older or newer reference of this model. 75% of the posts weren't very helpful and veered away from the topic at hand. The thread somehow turned into a relentless attack on the watches nickname "Pikachu". Hey...I didn't come up with the name. Maybe the general public should have stuck to the superhero genre like other Rolexes and named it "Wolverine".

Anyway, I decided to pick up this beauty today.
