New 16570

Hey all, I've been lurking for a while but I recently bought a y serial 16570 I wanted to share. I had tried on the 216570 when on vacation in Ireland and almost bought it but felt it was a little over the top for me. Finding a perfect condition 16570 with drilled lugs and SEL+superluminova dial was the dream!

Thanks everyone! Really enjoying it. I have to give a shout out to Tourneau in NYC where my awesome SA helped me source it. I know they get a lot of flak on the various message boards but having a relationship definitely is valuable. Also really enjoyed my experience at Hartmann's in Galway, Ireland if anyone is visiting. When I was there a few weeks ago they had both black and white dial 216570's as well as a 214270.

They are really awesome watches, congrats! One of the watches the forum really likes while the general public probably doesn't even know they exist. It's actually one of my favorite things about it.
