The more I see these watches, the more I like them. The black dial rose gold version looks amazing on the rubber strap.

Yes it does, it was a coin toss for me, but because I was wearing a black 116500 for so long, I wanted to change things up.
The rose dial really pops more in person. Photos do not do it justice.
The sunburst dial is so special because it gives you many different looks in different lighting situations. Same with the Rolex everose which I am appreciating more and more.
But love them both and also YG with champagne. Have not seen the WG in the flesh yet.

Here is one I took the other day which highlights the sunburst
(and matches the Porsche Crest nicely).

Forgot to post this when I got my Rose on RG.
The Champagne Dial on Yellow gold was equally as stunning...
I got the rose, because I have a YG Sub and really wanted rose gold on rubber...
I really like the dial matching the metal on these beauties...
The black subdials match the bezel and rubber and the dial matches the bezel lettering and case.

Wrist shots WG and YG

Your pictures are dangerously tempting me to round out the set with a RG...

Can any of you do a favor to weigh one these models?
I want to know whether these weigh more than stainless steel Daytona or not

Gotta know who told you that first rounds have been shipped? I was told 2 weeks ago from my AD, any day now.......their Rolex rep was 'surprised' it hadn't arrived yet. I don't bug my sales rep, she's so nice as is everybody in their shop. I am just patiently waiting and looking at the 116519LN's here on the forum. She did give me a Rolex cap when I took my wife in and surprised her with a Rolex fitting.

Thank you, much appreciated
Oysterflex weighs more than stainless steel variant which I thought

Both the dealer I purchased it from in Northern NJ and the following day from a Manhattan AD who called to tell me I would have to wait for the next round of deliveries. I of course took myself off of the second dealers wait list.

While on vacation in Singapore, I wanted to make you guys a nice underwater photo reporting of the WG but killed my iPhone for the sake of the photos.
So I decided to buy a galaxy s8 so I can try to make a new underwater report. Going in now wish me luck lol
