Farewell Black Beauty, Hello Baby Blue!
I thought I would never get rid of my 116610LN, until I just grew bored with it over the years and began to desire something with a little more pizazz! I think I've achieved that with the new 41mm 126613LB. Honestly I think the addition of the bright white font on the dial instead of the old pale yellow stuff is what sealed the deal for me

Yeah that's what I didn't like about the change of the color of the lettering. However, others say that the white letters match the white markers.... Oh well, I like the gold letters better on this watch, but I think the white letters on my DJ41 with blue dial look great. Best of both worlds I guess.

Passed on this watch recently. The white text really caught my eye, and made it more difficult to leave without buying it.
Congrats on that beauty!

Congratulations. I think it's the best looking watch in the 13 series range, although I prefer the gold font. Happily there is now something for everyone.

Pretty amazing how iconic and fitting in any situation that color combination can be.
It’s just as classic and dare I say timeless as the black version. Huge congrats. |

Prefer SS than a two tone

First off, congrats!! I really hope you enjoy it a lot, and for sure you will for a long time!!
I also once got rid of my 116610LN and just bought one again (three weeks ago) after 5 years of selling it... Crazy, but I missed it. Maybe that will happen to you one today, or not! Who knows. You got now one of the best blue colors to look at and enjoy!

Arguably the most iconic two-tone ever. What an incoming and I would be proud to have one of these in the collection. Well done!
