I think that's what appeals to me, the simplicity of it. Looks understated, but would appeal to any of us Rolex amateurs

Gotta disagree with it being "the best ever" but it does look nice and simple.

I like the simplicity of it as well but for me, the two best looking are the the TT Blue Submariner and the Red/Blue GMT aka 'Pepsi'.

i love that watch. my next purchase, would be to get a quality moonphase calender with those type elements. the jlc master moon calender is the best i can find thus far.
