Congrats, I think you will love it! I have found the 116610 wears a bit bigger than 40mm so I think it will be just fine for you. It will be noticeably smaller than the 43mm you are used to but just fine

This will be my daily, so I will get used to it and my 44mm ( I have a Breitling Chrono mat 44, with the 40 dimaond case and grey MOP diamond marker dial coming soon to replace my chrono-evo. It will seem big when I wear it now probably. |

picked up my new Submariner on the way to airport. Headed to Hawaii for bachelor party. I grabbed my watch, left the box for my brother to cross across border with...and took all my papers and mailed them back to Vancouver. Didn't really have time to take good pics as was drunk about 15minutes later i bellingham airport.
I love the watch..its little lighter than I had hoped, but I'm happy with the size, and LOVE the watch. Everything was as described by MVP. still all in plastics etc..some I didn't even see/remove till I got home to Van 4 days later. |

Congrats!
I've bought a couple from Darian aka MVPWATCHCO and both transactions, and watches, were great. Glad to know he is a forum member. |
