Pretty stoked about my 16700 GMT accuracy post servicing

I have this cool L-serial 16700 from 1990 that I acquired earlier this year and it needed a full overhaul. I had my watchmaker who was a longtime Rolex tech do the service for me and have been wearing it nearly every day for the past 3 weeks. When not on my wrist, I keep it on my dresser dial up as it was running just a hair slow. After almost three weeks (exactly 19 days) it is currently -5 sec, which equates to about -.25 per day. That is darn good accuracy in my book!

I'm loving the watch with a Coke bezel and happy to have the Pepsi and black bezel inserts as well.
