This has grown on my as my 2nd favorite Rolex, after my President II, of course. While I enjoyed seeing the 'Brad Pitt' in Ocean's Thirteen, the black-faced dial has really caught my fancy after seeing both here on TRF. Beautiful watch. If I could ever get myself to take off el Presidente II, I would consider this as a backup.

Incidentally, are those Rose Gold variants posted by justrolexes, or is it just the lighting?

Just the lighting. The 116718 was never produced in the Rose metal.

These are wonderful pieces - it needs to be on everyone's list for at least once in a lifetime.

This is a question to the owners: Would the Ceramic bezel be better for you if it had an acrylic sealer in the engraved numbers (to bring them up level with the ceramic surface)?
