FYI. I duno where to post this but I'm selling my practically almost bran new 116618 yg sunburst sub. The watch is barely 3 months old. I bought it at an AD in May. I just don't wear it much and decided that a steel watch would fit me better. If anyone has interest let me know. Thanks

Thank you Eric for Creating this thread! I have been here on more than one occasion debating on my next PM acquisition.

Initially I almost closed on a deal for a 16618 Z Serial. Almost, but due to this thread and Dr Toms post I knew which watch I wanted.

After about 3 months of constantly looking thru the for sale section, and I mean up to 6 hours per day, I finally found the ONE...

it is a Yellow Gold 116618, V-Serial manufactured in 2009. It is the Rare, or should I say coveted YellowGold "Smurf Dial."

Here are a few pics...

Welcome to the club my friend. I was wondering when you would show up here. You've had this beauty for a while now.
