Nice choice. Agree with other sentiments that Sea Dwellers have a special quality Subs sometimes lack.

Congrats! Traded my 116610LN for a 116600 a couple years back and there’s no regret.

I think you made the correct decision. That is a sleeper model for some reason

Congratulations!

Thanks everyone! Really excited to spend the day staring at it. The extra heft and thickness isn’t all that noticeable to me since I have been wearing thicker divers than the sub for quite some time.

Will this be a future classic/collectible? Not sure. But I’m gonna wear it proudly knowing, and, I’ll likely never see another one in the wild which is always cool.
Excellent Choice and Congratulations !!! Looks Fantastic...
