Non lens flare shot, Sorry not pro photographer & camera phone not equivalent to Jocke's macro lenses masterpieces & these sideway pics get annoying.

Nice congrat's, but is that a 116509 your trying to look like a 16520 or is it a SS 16520 with a 18kt White gold Bezel?

I thought the Triangles on the Bezel were an indication that the piece was white gold.

Its a SS 116520 with an OEM WG Bezel & Dial. Happened to be able to source both at around same time & was considering 509, but like the SS light weight for everyday wear &
very similar look, also the 25k of savings doesnt hurt either.

Very nice, I like the idea of light weight and one of my titanium watches is awesome. There was another fellow that was having trouble with his aftermarket bezel on a Daytona, so i'm glad this worked out for you. I'd like to make my own Daytona, since really there are so many variations out there...
