Icon4 Got to look at a 1655 the other night...fell in love

I was at my local AD and was looking over their pre-owned selection and there it was. I asked to see it and I must say I can see why people love this model. The dial seemed smaller in diameter than my 16610 and the plexi gave it a warm almost living feel.

It was unwound so I gave a few turns to the crown/mainspring and it started right up. Super smooth wind and the beat was slow and rhythmic. It is in pristine condition, no big shocker there as this AD has an authorized in-store Rolex watchmaker. Also it was nice and light feeling even compared to my D Sub. I can imagine it is very comfortable as a daily wearer.

I really fell in love with this design.
