A fantastic piece, congrats. Would you do me a big favor and weigh your watch incl. all links? I own the previous generation 116506 with baguette diamond dial and would like to know if there is a difference. Thanks!

Yes I knew the previous diamond dial had that beautiful uniform light blue dial. I was just asking the OP what he meant. I’m sure he was talking about it having brown at all on the dial. In other 12 series Daytona threads they dislike the thin sub dial rings. Likely not what OP was talking about
