Wow Congrats buddy

ersnyder · 14 November 2010, 07:18 AM

The orange does give it a retro look, very cool! Congratulations!!

davidf · 14 November 2010, 07:23 AM

I love that dial! Very unique

Rags · 14 November 2010, 08:00 AM

You're right, you don't really see that model much.. Nice.

rockyn · 14 November 2010, 08:05 AM

Gotta love the domed bezel

It gives Rolex a totaly new look.

rfknauss · 14 November 2010, 09:07 AM

Very nice!

darthmouse · 14 November 2010, 09:11 AM

Excellent photographs. And a reference that we don't see too often!

Lol-x · 14 November 2010, 10:50 AM

Cool, your photos are always excellent

Enjoy your new watch

Tools · 14 November 2010, 10:55 AM

Great looking watch...

I love that retro look and classic Arabic numbers..........

I fell in love with that dial when I first saw it... Unfortunately, if I get another watch, I'll have to buy another watch box..............

Eric88 · 14 November 2010, 11:33 AM

I like it very much. I'm not very familiar with this model. Is it a brand new one? Also, are the lugs brushed straight up and down to match the bracelet? That is what I'm seeing in the photos. Nice creamy and uniform look.

The 116000 was announced in 2008 I think and shares the same case as the datejust. The lugs are brushed straight up and down just like the bracelet

That`s one of the things I really like about this model, everything but the sides are brushed, very little bling.

A nice retro looking dial reminds me of the dials used by Rolex and many others back in the 1940/50s

Great taste and wear it in a good health!
