Thanks Steve, I'm going through the usual new watch thing- staring at it, checking the dial under a loupe etc cetera. I'm digging the blue dial, not too flashy but it stands out and winks at me. Guess that's all that matters.
It's pretty heavy, close to my Yachtmaster in feel anyway. Flipped my 16613 and a few dollars for the purchase but I really wanted a Pres to complete the collection-ok-is there any "completing" the collection? |

Gorgeous Pres! Congrats on the grail! I too wanted a WG DD but decided to start with a datejust for now. You mentioned being on land for a short time. You flying or boating for work?

Thanks again all for the comments-it has been my daily wear almost 90% of the time...soon it'll be snoozing in a ship's stateroom.
I'll have to look for a place to hang it so it stays wound while I'm working |

The diamonds look to refract the light better without the settings.
