Welcome HFLO... that is a true thing of beauty right there!!!

Speedo, thanks again for your insightful comments there re the band. I bought BOTH a mint 7386 and a NOS never used 78360 / 580, so now I have the mint 7386 that I presume i'll be looking to move on. Interestingly, I asked the vendor for the date of the 78630 / 580 and he said he did not know, as they don't have a date. I will however (when I can work out how to attach a photo to this thing) inset some pics of both the watch and the NOS 78360 / 580 still in it's OEM Rolex wrapper.

I just received a photo from my friend in the UK that collected the watch for me ... I just can't believe how magnificent it is ... and that's from a photo!

Speedo, can I trouble you to take a photo of the back of your watch, showing the relationship between the 580 end link and the outer ring of the case back? I had seen some photos that I thought showed the 580 links hitting the outer rim of the case back which did make me question is the 580 link was correct on a 1016. Proof now has it that it is, but I am wondering about the fitment.
