It's a mess and uncomfortable to look at. Older watches like you have (Zenith movement?) are so much nicer. (Although having the same layout on each subdial would be even better).
These are from a bygone era. A more civilized age…

Grazie! I got them from a dealer in Switzerland. Ask your AD, but supposedly becoming more difficult to acquire than an actual 116500!

I don’t find that to be the case for me. I actually think I prefer the super jubilee over the stock oyster bracelet because the bracelet feels thinner. This is especially noticeable on the clasp side.

I think my order of bracelet preference is:
1) oysterflex
2) super jubilee
3) oyster

Agreed that the Titanium is magnificent.

Those Golds are beautiful too.

Not a non Wow in the bunch.

Congratulations to all for landing these pieces !!!

Lots of flavors to pick from...but do pick a Daytona.

I’m late to the Daytona party and got my first one last year, the new model with the ceramic insert sealed it and now it’s my favourite Rolex
