Wow very classic looking watch! I agree the new models are a HUGE step up over the 5 series.

I only keep my 16234 for sentimental reasons not because its a better watch.

Very nice! Never saw the blue dial in person, but it does have modern/vintage qualities in one! Super cool reference!

Hats off for being so patient too, must’ve been a long week, but glad to hear the wait is finally over!!

Cheers! Yes, it was roughly 3 weeks but 1 week specifically with this AD. Waiting fatigue was real, but I also thought of the other folks who have been patiently waiting for years! I applaud them.
