Not crazy...but only if you'll have enough left over to spend on some decent Ukrainian or Balkan prostitutes.

It is PM... White Gold. Honestly doesn't have a lot of flash. I feel like my 5711R is more "flashy"

At first glance, you don't realize they are sapphires... They gradually go from light to dark. Natural stones... Not heat treated. The dial is simply stunning in person. I'm with you... Never been a fan of diamonds, but would be a totally different direction from the current collection.

Yes, tried it on at my AD a few months back. I never thought I would want a watch with stones - but this Sub in person is incredible. You can't understand until you see it in person.

Congrats in advance!

Couldn't agree more! The pictures DO NOT do the watch justice! Full disclosure, They had a 5270 Blue dial, that I was seriously considering. After about 5 minutes, he says " I have something else to show you"... I literally couldn't stop looking at it.

Never seen it in real life but I agree, the gem set ones are something special

Amazing watch. Now this is a watch you can wear and truly know you have a rare piece.

If it is in the budget get it. This is a piece that is defiantly not out there. It is a piece that many ADs haven’t seen in person. My wife has some handbags like that and when we go in the store I get a kick out of the sales associates saying they have never seen the piece she has in person even though they sale them. This is a stunning watch

Excuse me sir, seems you left your watch out in the cold weather and it has iced over.

Beautiful looking.

I asked that yesterday as well. Can't really answer if it's crazy, without the price.

I was recently at my AD looking at an 116618LB and he showed me the watch you are referencing. While it is a stunning watch, the diamonds are not for me (10 years ago I would have had a different view point). If YOU like it and it makes YOU happy, I say go for it

In that case, yes, it’s crazy. A lot more I would buy for that amount.

You know, it takes a lot more to impress people nowadays. I’ve found most who don’t like diamonds on a watch is because of the cost

Love the deeper blue dial versus the Smurf, but don't think would wear something like that. If you like it go for it!

I have seen a Sub and, also, a GMT like that.
I also saw the rainbow Daytona.

First 2 were on mens wrist, didnt look right.
Daytona was on an older lady, she rocked that sucker!
