Dalip, I fretted long and hard between that watch and the 114060. I am sure I will break and pick that one up as well. It is an awesome watch, and you wear it well!,

Congrats!!

The new 116300 with silver stick dial! Very, very nice. I checked the white dialled version out the other day. Also very nice.

Congrats!

Although my preference is the older style and size, I think that the 116300 - together with the new 114060 is two of the nicest releases from Geneva lately - at least when it comes to proportions and looks. Sizewise I do not know (for me...)

What I like the most about the 116300 is how it continues the very traditional design elements that are so typical for the Datejust. Just compare with my twenty year old 16200 (where the only practically difference compared to the 16000 and 1600 is the sapphire crystal):



Once again: Congrats to a great modern reference!

Best,

A

By far the best looking DJ2. Looks almost like a Milgauss date (could have looked).

Fantastic! Love the fact that it reminds me of the Milgauss, which is one of my favorites. I have to go try one of those on now. Never like the domed bezel. The smooth is awesome.
