Black is Beautiful!
I can't believe how much I'm diggin this watch Thirty six hour time check tonight at 2018:00 was ZERO (0) deviation I've had the blk/red and pepsi bezels in the past, but this blk/blk is just awesome




I've definitely been converted to the dark side


I managed to keep the camera still this time too

The all black is the best. Kinda miss it since my recent pepsi conversion. Always nice to be able to switch back.

That's right....the mods put a restriction on that after some of these tossers flooded their posts with far too many of these icons!!

Rockrolex and I have been telling you about Black Beauty forever and FINALLY you listened and discovered the coolest of the sports watches. That red hand and that just slightly slimmer profile, and that smaller crown. A really wonderful watch to wear. I would not want another watch with the big Sub crown other than on my Sub. Black Beauty GMT is just, to me, like a breathtaking and aloof woman.

Stunning, Craig. Well done on the score. As Art said, we've been trying to tell you forever about the bueaty of the all black. Enjoy that baby and wear it in good health.

I just put on my Black Beauty for a nice Sunday morning walk and visit to some stores. It is a great great watch to wear after 2 days with the green boy on.
