Great info, thank you! Mind sharing more pics of it, different light settings if you may?

Sure…here’s on from inside the train…I’d venture to say it looks like this indoors

Did you have to strugle to find the light play for the first picture or it is easy to get?

I just snapped the photo without much thought. At time it can look like in the official photo from Rolex.com if it’s in direct strong sunlight, and it looks good as well

I know TT is a turn off to some but this watch never looks the same depending on the light and wears amazing. It's a show stopper.

They are discontinued, but if 36 MM ok with you would suggest a Turnograph 116264, which was available on white, dark grey / black and sunburst blue dials on either super jubilee 63200 or oyster / PCL bracelet. My current blue sunburst shown below, color changes depending on lighting from dark blue (almost black) to light blue.







White version (from web):



My former 116264 with dark grey / black dial below, had both bracelets):

Thanks brother. It's really hard to even capture all the different colors this watch inherits throughout a day.

I'm torn, I love the railway, but the lack of luminous matter bothers me (at night, I read the time on my watch!)
