I think the "lose that dial" was meant to be "love". That second hand is really fun. Enjoy!!!

Amazing watch. The stunning blue dial on the 116622 is the only reason I'm not pulling the trigger on a Submariner yet -- it has caused me to pause and "reevaluate". :)

Thanks guys for all the kind comments. I had to sneak those pics in at a long traffic light so no texting and driving. The dial really is mesmerizing and could easily be a distraction while driving.

Yes. I know the feeling. When I got my LV I had to take pictures of it at the train station and then on the train ride home.

Congratulations of your YM!

Congrats in advance. I had the platinum dial 16622 for years and loved it. With the new updates, you will really like The 116622.

Your second photo really shows off the dial. And for better or worse, most of us can relate to your experience.

Congrats on this one and yes to your question. I'd admit I have done the same but didn't wait for a light.
