Lifetime?
Not a chance. You keep looking at this forum you will be shopping for something different in 2 weeks

Great choice indeed...but I'd say you've "got the bug!"

Yes, it is a beautiful watch, but unfortunately it doesn't keep the affliction at bay, it only temporarily suppresses the symptoms.

Great watch. It will serve you well in your profession

Here's the thing...you've caught the flipper bug My first was a 16610. I wore it 10 years and didn't give it a second thought. Then one day..."Oh hey look at that."

Good choice and well done for listening to your gut. Please report back in 21 days to let us know that you haven't flipped it for a GMT

Oh, and your magnification looks spot on too!

Good on you for realizing that you had something that wasn't quite right for you, stepping up and making the change. Life's too short to settle.

Can't go wrong with that one. Congrats - and a tip to keep your photos upright - just save them on your desktop using either photoshop, or whatever photo app you have. Just a simple 'save' then you're good to upload and get it straight. Enjoy the Sub Date !
