Absolutely stunning example of the most desirable version of the ref 1016 with every bit correct !!!! Look at the shape of the crystal and the excellent bezel. Note the correct shape on the back of the lugs too... This is one to keep. I'm glad to have the opportunity to share this on my favorite forum I haven't been very active on lately...

All included (disassembly, removing old lume, and relume) ~1hr. The actual lume is pretty quick, about 20-30 min. It’s important to move quickly so the lume doesn’t dry out midway thru.1 point

You can pick up a pearl from Athaya for $10. You’ll need to remove a little surplus plastic though. The new pearls Yuki has aren’t as good as they used to be unfortunately and are frankly overpriced. http://parts.athayavintage.com/product/aftermarket-rolex-pearl-dot-pips/ A dab of glue on the inside of the bezel insert will ensure they don’t get knocked out that easily.1 point

Oh it gets much worse Mike! In a universe with isotropic gravitational fields your examples are true. But surrounded as we are by huge gravitational masses we pull back the covers to reveal the realm of relative time. Et voila' And now things get very weird indeed. Inertial mass and gravitational mass are indistinguishable and no accelerated reference frames agree. In a nutshell clocks near large masses run more quickly because gravitational time dilation appears as accelerated frames of reference. And bingo zingo, clocks run at different rates. Which explains why you and me are always setting our watches back I suppose!0 points
