New Arrival! 116710 "M" w/Pics

So I bit the bullet and picked up one after trying it on at my AD, didn't buy it from them though. It is an absolutely perfect watch imho and could be happier with the fit, finish, and overall beauty of it. Hope you guys and gals enjoy some pics, I feel like a proud daddy!
Daniel

My favorite, too. Mine's been on my wrist a little over a year and keeps extraordinarily good time. In fact, I never have to set it. Congratulations on your purchase. You now own one of the finest Rolexes ever built.

Ha, trust me I'm nervous about dinging them up even though I know that perfect shine won't last for long. Oh well, I didn't buy it to look at it!
