TeeJay Posted February 6, 2009 Report Posted February 6, 2009 Man BT, the more I see the ceramic GMT the more I can't wait till the blk Sub version comes out on that case. I had this one for a while as well and loved it - just wasn't needing more GMT's at the time. But Rolex sure has made a watch case and bracelet that feel more high end than anything else prior in the sports line. And isn't that clasp great? I missed this comment earlier, but I totally agree, Rolex really built a good watch, and one which really does feel 'high end' when worn Thanks a lot Monsieur Any time
RobbieG Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Posted February 7, 2009 Whenever I see a 16710 now I regret selling mine. I had both gen and a fully modded rep. While I have always liked the watch visually it never got wrist time due to the colors popping too much for me sometimes and I had the really functional UN GMT complication that I liked a bit better from both practicality and WIS angles. That said, I wish I still had the Coke. Now I could justify it as a museum piece since it is so much more collectable as a discontinued item. I should get an NOS one if I could find it and just stare at it and photgraph it like I used to and forget my wristime rule. This would be the one exception as I never get tired of looking at them... Cheers!

Cheers! I know what you mean about the colors. That's why I picked up a black insert on the 'bay when I saw one for a reasonable price. I've got a faded Pepsi as well for variety. Thanks!

relox Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Taking my latest purchase on again, Omega PO from Narikaa Looks nice. I am going to buy one from him. What movement "wears" your PO? Is the 42 or the 45 mm? I mean he has 42 mm for sale (they are awesome or they appear to be in pics) but with the 45 mm UPO bezel... And yours has the right one, I guess. Well, tell me when possible. Thanks, relox
relox Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Thank you SR ! But this Saturday will belong to one of my franken PO's in support of M.P. !! On to London !! The more POs I find, the more I want one (or 3, in different colours). Are those 42 mm? or 45? Where did you buy them? Wow... I need a couple of PO, at least... Now I realize I have fallen in love, have butterflies on my stomach and never eat dessert... :-)
RobbieG Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Posted February 7, 2009 Usually I would have swapped by now, by Saturday still gets the same. I can't take my OP watch off. 42MM PO on Sirtoli Shark...
