It's hard to beat the classic shape of that 16610 - what a great looking watch.

On the wrist the thicker lugs of the 116610 do not appear that obvious as on the comparison pics imho. Prefer the ceramic

I agree. I said I'd never buy a six digit because of the lugs, then I tried one on. I like it, and have since bought one.

I'm going to have to disagree regarding the lugs in person. When I tried on the Submariner, it was immidiatley noticeable. Trying on the Sea Dweller ceramic side-by-side really drove home the fact that those Sub lugs altered the look of the watch.

People are going to go back and forth on the lug thing. For me, it kills the watch. Prefer the old style by far. My wife, she like the looks of the new one.
