New and Blue
With a somewhat heavy heart I decided to flip my 116234 because it never got any wrist time. I seldom wear a suit anymore and found my 16710 and the Chrono SO were getting all the wrist time.....but through TRF I found a replacement, a.............16613 Bluesy. Thanks to Carey for taking such great care of this beauty.
 I met Carey last Thursday, looked her over, left a deposit and then today we got together and finalized the deal.  Man, I couldn't wait to get home, take a link out for my somewhat skinny wrist, (thanks Larry <Tools> for that great tutorial a few weeks back) clean her up and take a few quick pics. I know they all look the same, but this one is mine.

That baby looks Mint!!
Congratulations on adding this beauty to your collection. Does anyone else find that when someone posts a watch that you own...it makes you re-appreciate yours! I ran upstairs and put my bluesy on right after seeing those pics...and now I can't believe I ever let it leave my wrist! |

Thanks to all. This really is an amazing looking watch. I really like the subtle changes in the dial as the light hits it from different angles. I always wondered what the hoopla was about these watches, now I know.
