Got a chance to try on the new 'Starbucks' at the local AD earlier this week. The green bezel against the black dial looks fantastic! Congratulations OP!

Tell me about it...

Love the watch, hate the nickname which I find very childish. It was the same with the 'Hulk', but unfortunately it stuck. Now I believe 'Hulk' is somewhat more appropriate to the 116610LV as it befitting the case size and shape (broad lugs, muscular square-ish shape) but 'Starbucks' just brings associations with very average coffee.

Agree and now closed for a very very very very very long coffee break from childlike names, for what once was a prestigious brand of watches like Rolex..
