Fantastic. Back when they were real tool watches and put function first, and form second. No need to get into the hype with so many of the new models. The way I see it, folks buy Rolex because of there history. These new models are very far removed from the DNA that made Rolex what it was. It’s the 4/5 digits that built Rolex reputation, why not go for the real deal. These new models are blinged out homages to the the watch you purchased which were built and used as tools day in and day out.

Congratulations, that looks like a nice full set

She’s real a stunner, congrats! I still have to read up on the differences between the 16800 vs the triple 000.

Congratulations.

That’s fantastic! How anyone could choose any of the new ceramic jewelry they make today over that is beyond me. The only thing I’d do is source a proper set of hands for it to match the dial but otherwise it’s perfect!!!

How refreshing to view this post. Gorgeous watch.
Getting tired of the posts about relationships with ADs, prices, waiting lists.

Very Happy about it and already looking for a 16750.

I think these are the real sleeper hits (besides the Investment Bla Bla) - transitional models...
