Congratulations, I'm glad you found what you were after.
I sold my 16710 with a full set including original purchase receipt a couple of months ago. Hopefully someone is enjoying and appreciating it to the max.

Thanks! Looks like a great set, I'm sure someone is. Didn't get much wrist time post BLNR?

Congrats. Great watch! Looks minty.

I recommend getting another bezel for the option to mix it up. I have the Pepsi and love love love the all black too. Classic both ways. Enjoy it.

Thanks Dan, definitely agree! Just switched to the all black bezel today, have a Coke bezel as well. Will be interesting to see which ends up getting the most wrist time.

You're right about minty, I got lucky with the find, wasn't even sized by the original owner...

It was my one and only for 15 years until I picked up my Sub C in 2012, wrist time for the 16710 went down hill from there, picked up the BLNR last year and that sealed it. I still really liked the look of the 16710 but hardly ever wore it always going with the newer styles. I flipped it and added the LVC back in April. I still think its an amazing watch and even though I thought and said many times on here that I would never let it go in the end I decided what the point of keeping it if its not being worn. Enjoy yours

Thanks, definitely will. Makes sense, no point in collecting dust. Great collection you have by the way
