droptopman Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Another awesome build. You must have an unbelievable gen parts selection to keep doing these high end builds. I agree dbane's case work is exceptional. Best I have ever seen. I like his case work better than my gens. With those two guys working on a watch you know it's going to be awesome. Congrats man this is a beauty 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 What a beauty! It's amazing how much nicer the old 16613 is than the new one, which is kinda "blah". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacsah1 Posted December 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 What a beauty! It's amazing how much nicer the old 16613 is than the new one, which is kinda "blah".Thank you Tor. The only thing I Iike about the new 116613 is the solid link bracelets and ceramic insert. I feel like the aluminum insert can easily be scratched.

By-Tor Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 It's the dial. 16613 has one of the nicest blue dials ever. The new one is just generic blue. I've seen it in the flesh and it didn't give me any "Buy me"-feeling at all. The old 16613 is always just as amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sogeha Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 It's a beauty. Whenever I see a five digit next to a six digit I'm always struck by how crude the design of the six digit case looks. I tried on a six digit hulk at a friendly dealers yesterday, I loved the dial and ceramic, but I couldn't help wishing that Rolex had built a few intermediate models using the older midcase.

Legend Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 I 've never been more sure that the 5 digit looks better, even next to a gen!+1. The more classy dial markers and the beautiful blue of the 16613 does it for me. I tread softly along the fine line separating raving insanity and lucid moments of ingenuity. The issue is I've no idea which is which mostly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
