Yes, an all around do anything watch.

I visited a store that has five used 16610's, they said they would buy this model all day, as they always sell them. The datejusts they sell have been sitting there for some time....

Love my 16610, it is my daily wearer and has been with me for almost 20 years.
How long have you had yours Rob?

You wear it well, it looks prestine!
Mine has been 100% on for the last 19 years and I do not think it has wound down and stopped more then 2 times as it is always on my wrist.
It is now my weekday watch as I have a new weekend watch.
Still love popping it on in the morning.

Wear it in good health!
Cheers!
