New Aquisition -
After months of deliberating between the 116500 vs 116520, I decided to go with the 116520. I couldnt codone the crazy premiums the resellers are charging for the 116500. I'll eventually get the 116500 but for now I am very happy with my 116520

Every time I see one of these in the wild, my head just snaps, I just stare. Really great watch.

Thank you bud.

I have the 16520 Panda so this would be a perfect contrast.
