I was.

Until I went back to this. I missed the GMT hand and the 5 digit GMTs are out of my price range right now.

Only three five-digits left. Polar will be the last to go, if it ever does

I’ve been wearing this for a couple days now.

Thanks! Really love the matte dial mixed with the upgrades that came with the 5 digits.

It's not totally uncommon for some of us to prefer the old school Rolexes over the newer models. For those who do appreciate the older models it usually a trade-off of modern advances such as bracelets, working lume, engraved rehauts,, and even movements for traditional size and shapes and in my case comfort. With a small 6.5 in. wrist the older models just work better. The exception in the group being the 16013 which I just like due to its acrylic crystal and tapestry dial.

Sub 14060

Exp II 16570

And my TT DJ 16013

Out of curiosity, why get rid of them? What were they replaced with?

Can't answer for him but there's been a lot of action on Seiko subforum lately.
