7016 arrived....thoughts?

Now that i have it in hand. What do you think? Definitely unpolished case....which is nice. Dial has some slight discoloration of the plots... the hands are a shade or two lighter but they have oxidation so i think they may be original to the watch. The case is really thick and large...were the cases larger then their bigger brother rolex cases? Original insert and crystal?

Very nice dial man. Especially these are the years where the dials got all mottled up. Wear it well

Looks great. I'd personally have to tint the hands.

I was with you on the hands but i do believe that they are original to the watch and based on another example, with the same color scheme, totally normal for the age. Trying to get a photo that shows the nice flat surfaced deep blue dial is tough. In person it is dynamite.....via a lens it is ok.

Very nice example.
Totally shines in the sun. I love that insert too!
Buff that crystal off! Or get a new aftermarket one.

Congrats on that stunner!
