Turnograph Fever! (Incoming)

My buddy Dave (aka The Bigwatch Guy on TZ) had the "nerve" to post a circa 1998 TT Turnograph head just DAYS after I bought my 116264 Turnograph. Having recently found the two-tone end links I thought I had sold, I had to have it. Call it a companion for the other.
Just got it today, and dressed it up with the alligator strap and end links. I love the beautiful gold Romans on the porcelain-looking dial.

You got a nice price on that! I was tracking it for a couple days and then got distracted. Looks great - nice job!

I like ToGs a lot, but of the two, I think your red seconds is my favorite. Enjoy them both!

Nice looking Datejust, love the white roman dial! I recently picked up a 116264 with the black dial. It was a NOS eight years old and the AD had it serviced at the RSC in NY. Got a great deal on it, with full Rolex two year warranty.
