Yeah this is the best release this year. I have gotten in touch with my AD about this and the EXP 36mm. Fingers crossed.

My AD just got me the 116500LN last week.
I don’t want to push my luck, but I’m gonna have to ask for this one too

Such hype over Meteorite! So what? Makes the dial super busy.

Give me plain old steel and black. Looks 50X better.

Agree. Was really hoping for a size increase at least, oh well.

I still prefer the steel to the meteorite. I've never been able to tell the time on a meteorite dial at a glance. Being a Daytona doesn't help this matter. It's a beauty though.

Nice. I have the WG on oysterflex and steel dial but would have been tempted by this if I was making the choice today. Price wise it's a similar premium over the 'black set with diamonds' as the 'black set with diamonds' is over the steel dial.

I know what you mean, Daytonas aren't the most legible anyway and from trying the meteor GMT it wasn't as clean to read at a glance as the standard. Still, looks nice in the promo photo.
