Dynamic Duo!
First chance I have had to post about these really. Just got back home from a holiday so here we go.
Been very lucky over the past month or 2 and managed to get both the 116710 BLNR and a 126600 Sea-Dweller. First impressions of both are great. I have generally gone for older Rolex in the past and actually sold my 2002 16710 to initially fund a 116600 Sea-Dweller to go with its bigger brother the 126600 but the premium on the newer 2016 models was too much so a 116710 BLNR turning up was a no brainer, although after having worn it for a few weeks now I am starting to think that maybe the PCL's are a bit too much so I'll either track down a 116600 to trade it for OR get the bracelet brushed. The 126600 is a belter of a watch. Lovely proportions and although its 43mm it is much smaller on the wrist than my AP ROO Diver. I have yet to wear or size the Sea-Dweller but when trying it on it feels very comfortable and the slightly thinker bracelet and clasp really worn well with the rest of the way. As many have said its all in the proportions. Here are a few pics;

beauties. I almost bought a 126600 in Turks and Caicos last week. Tried my best to convince the rep to sell it to me but it was sold to someone else.
