I've always imagined Santa as a Rolex guy. What watch would be his choice? Skydweller perhaps?

On another note, congratulations! Beautiful piece

Very very nice! I used to prefer the look of the white dial but I must say the black dial has grown on me massively! In truth I would be happy with either one! Congrats!

Hi lenfried29, that’s a tough question...

Actually, I got the white 116520 3 years ago. I LOVE it, this white dial on a 116520 is to me the perfect fit. This is to me a very classic watch. Not a sport watch. I wear it with suits and white shirts. beware... the bezel is a scratch magnet.

Re the 116500, I always wanted a black dial. I only have it since yesterday. This is a different watch. A sport’s watch with the black ceram bezel.

So to answer your question... I love them both, the black 116500 as a more sport watch and the white 116520 as a more classic/smart watch.

I think the black one may be more easy to wear on daily basis... My 2 cents.

I’ll take a picture of both soon.

Cheers
