Congrats! I was in a similar mindset as you - completely against the ceramics, the bigger cases etc.. About two months ago I thought about re-acquiring a 16710 after selling one a couple years ago and I was put off by the asking prices. Finally decided to try on a 116710 and was blown away. Three days later had one in the mail. Love mine!

Fantastic photo - nice one! Trying to warm up to these myself but can't find an excuse to use the multiple time zones!

Thanks for all the kind words, all!

I've always been more of a dive watch guy, but seeing as I don't frequently go to depths greater than 15m, but frequently exit my home time zone, the gmt was an easy choice

I'll see if I can't get a couple shots of my gmt while snorkeling in a week or two
