Here's my 16710N with a used Rolex 116710LN Cerachrom insert shaved to fit the 16710 bezel insert recess. This watch has no aftermarket parts.

Stan I admire your ingenuity but I’ve seen that watch of yours with its original serif black and for me that’s the ultimate one and only.

Thank you! I often put the original serif black insert on the watch and like it equally. I don't want to scratch the original, so wear it with the ceramic insert more often.

LN is much more versatile but BLNR is just beautiful IMO. tough call.

That’s what I’m talking about! Yep those great serif inserts need protecting. I have an unused Pepsi that’s sole purpose is to add value to whoever sells my watch someday. Only thing I know is it won’t be me.

I hear you! My 16710 is the one thing I'll hang onto 'til the end. It's the most versatile Rolex reference ever.
