Incoming!
I've been on the hunt for an everyday watch that had the balance of classy yet low key to wear at work. I felt the watches in my current collection were a little too showy/large for this setting (healthcare) and was even more exagerated due to my small wrists. I was toying with the idea of vintage 36mm Datejusts and nearly pulled the trigger on a 16234 with silver dial and roman numerals.
Browsing through various 36mm options in ranges other than Datejusts, I stumbled across the one I bought. I really liked the unusual dial and fluted bezel combination that I hadn't seen on an OP before. I felt it has a classic, yet modern look whilst being subtle on the wrist. The models a 2014, 116234. Hope you enjoy the pics! Op1.jpg Op2.jpg Op3.jpg Grp.jpg

Nice one. Congrats! Cool combo.
I believe if I recall it would be a 116034 rather than 234.

Is the lume pink or is it just the lighting?
Either way it's cool.. Looks like a DJ and a Exp had a baby and this is what the baby grew up to be.

Congrats! Very cool watch! I would definitely wear that one. I was unaware there were OPs with a fluted bezel. Love it!

Congrats! The OP with fluted bezel aka 116034 is quite rare. They were mainly produced with the smooth bezel ref 116000

Very nice, I've been thinking of adding a 34mm Date back to my collection. Its just the PCL's that are putting me off.
