One of my favorite watches...it looks outstanding on the Oysterflex. I might have to go down that road with mine sometimes.

Congrats! Your photos are just ridiculous!
I hear you in the kids aspect too. I put on my 16610 90% of the time, maybe more so now that my 15 month old sometimes grabs it till I give it to her and then she runs around with it. Other pieces I would never, but the 16610... if I haven’t broken it by now, she (probably) can’t.
Enjoy it!

What a great write up and so nicely done with the Explorer. The Oyster Flex on it is simply sublime, well done and thanks for sharing.
