Beautiful build, JMB 1016 case builds are the way to go. Thanks for sharing the photos and build details.

Great looking build, and fantastic fade on the bezel.

Looks nice, the case aging is looking great just a few marks or nicks a little softening and it won't look a day over 58. The vintage pieces are what I prefer and this is on the mark. Thanks for posting.

Congrats on the new phone. I've been using (or is it using me) an iPhone since 2011, smart phone but still unsure about the user sometimes.

Looking good, I'm thinking of building one of theses in the near future. Great work.

When looking for a thread before clicking on it look to the left there is a dot if you have posted in the thread move your mouse over it it will say go to first unread post. If you have posted it will be a star and just click it as well. I meant to quote you on this. See above.

JMB builds a very nice case for the pre 80's 1016 builds.

Great collection, some of my all-time favorites you have there.

Simply amazing, a work of art ! Thanks for such a thoroughly detailed build and post.

I know very little about Cosmographs, but I really like this one. I love the dial. Great looking build.

Such a beautiful build and photographs. I'm sure I'll end up with a white dialed 1016 at some point. Thanks for posting.

Agree a 100 percent. Congrats. I'm working my way up to hopefully a franken build in the near future.

These are all I need as well. I've owned all kinds of glasses over the years, I always go back to theses two brands.

Looks like fun. How's the fishing ?

Great topic and comments. The way I see it Rolex 40-50 plus years was a very nice watch / tool watch that was priced right for the time. Fast forward to the current Rolex and it appears they are becoming a luxury brand in the upper echelon of watchmakers not at the top but they sure seem to be trying with their current pricing structure. JMHO Thanks
