New 1016 very late L serial sold in 1990
Just got this today from Michael M. My first 1016 and couldn't have gotten a better example. Thanks Michael and looking forward to enjoying it!
    Crisp and unpolished with perfect case back sticker entact.

Wonderful Ken. I picked up a 1016 from Michael recently also. First class watches with matching service. Congrats on a fine looking 1016.

Beautiful! You know Ken, I really like the direction you've taken your collection lately. The 16600, the 16710 (with the 3086 movement), the others, and now this. These discontinued beauties may not be the first thing that comes to mind when discussing vintage Rolex. However, at this stage they may have indeed crossed over into vintage territory. For me, these were the watches I once drolled over in their cases when visiting the AD. It wasn't that long ago, yet sure enough, one by one they all dissapeared only to be replaced by the super-cased ceramic monstrosoties that we see now. Don't get me wrong, I love those too, just not on this particular forum! Anyway, big congrats!
