Don’t want a PM and the SS looks awesome on OF. Rolex makes some weird marketing decisions at times. If they offered OF at least as an option on all Professional models, demand would be even crazier than it is now.

I am glad they don’t, I like the fact that oysterflex is kept for PM

It is super comfortable and I really wanted a rubber strap for the summer.

How does the fit feel compared to the Aquanaut? I can't take my 5167 off my wrist...it's too perfect. I love the look of the 116500 on OF as well. Well done.

That looks clean! Does anyone have photos of rubber on their 116610LN? I may have to consider picking up some summertime straps.

I love my 5167, with the rubber strap on the Daytona it feels much lighter. Mainly gonna use the rubber for the summer. We got the same 3 watches lol
