Added a bit more green with a green date wheel. Had it put in before I had ever worn the watch.

Thank you. Obtaining it brand new after it was discontinued was the luckiest thing that has happened to me in this hobby.

That's a cool modification, sir. From your friendly neighbor on Whidbey. I too amo Italia. I take a road bike up to Bormio, Corvara, and Peschiera del Garda every couple of years.

I have this exact watch. Im wondering if anyone can tell me when the 116710 went from brushed center links to polished center links. Frankly, I prefer the all matte finish on the bracelet, but I was just curious about this.

Anyone?

I believe all 116710 came with PCLs. Probably only the 16710 had brushed links.

It’s just a few dollars more to get the PCLs brushed though, so shouldn’t be an issue.

Miss this watch so much.l, wear it in good health. I regret getting rid of mine as it was my first Rolex. Loved the Oyster but used the funds to buy a 116500 which is also a great watch.

Got this back in April from my local AD. Got a call totally out of the blue from them. They knew I wanted it, and I had turned down a previous offer to buy a two-tone Root Beer in favor of waiting this out. But I had kind of written this watch off because it wasn’t worth the grey price to me (as opposed to my grey-purchased DaytonaC) and I really did not expect the AD to sell to me. I guess it pays to stay friendly with your local neighborhood AD :-)

Since then, this watch gets more wear time than any other. In fact, this is the watch that sent me down the road of consolidating my collection. Love it!
