New wear

[Merlinthepoodle]

Got a 116710ln last night along with a few Mahattans.
It's ok...GMT has never been my favorite but I wanted to wear something non assuming.
It's a very handsome watch but I feel it is a bit flat.
I'm always wearing a dive watch (dssd, sub etc) since my existence is doing that, so this maybe a nice change and not scream so DIVER!!!!
Look DIVER in the house !!! DIVE WATCH DUDE!!

Anyone else wearing this happily ?

My 116713 is one of my favourites.

Some of the Rolex watches called ‘divers’ eg. 14060, 16610 etc. do not have rotating bezels that comply with the ISO standard for a diver.

Your 116710 is as good a divers watch as most Submariners.

Unless you are diving to deeper than 100 metres.

You also have the benefit of a GMT function.

Enjoy wearing it.

Take the stickers off?

Picked up a ‘19 warranty card dated 9/20 yesterday. I like it alot. Very clean watch with just enough shine. During the day in the sun this thing catches the light nicely. 6 more posts then ill be able add pictures…

Great watch. I actually find it is more noticeable than the Submariner due to the PCLs and bezel font. People do confuse it with the Submariner due to its black bezel but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I agree the 116710 is a great watch but how do you use it for timing decompression stops?
