Stealth

It's crazy how it's black until any lights hit the dial. Codes should get more love.

The more I look at this Code, the more I like it, especially the price on secondary market.

It takes time (5 years maybe more) for a collection to get established. But it’s getting more and more traction with RD4, Starwheel and the steel models.

RO and ROO were also received with mixed feelings. Rolex could not sell the Daytona in the first years.

We are living in different times now but I am pretty sure that in their respective first two years after introduction Codes sales in terms of # of pieces are higher compared to RO and ROO.
Checking the numbers before I can share…

I honestly think they are the best model AP offer. Stunning to look at, overt engineered case. Simply amazing. Huge fan boy here.

I'm not a gold watch fan in general but the pink gold Code was love at first sight. I ended up with the same watch as OP but mine is the sunburst blue on navy rubber. Pic to come once I hit 10 posts.

I wear mine more than my RO, can’t stop looking at it. The case blows me away, as does the face too. Defiantly going to add a couple more to my collection. Starting with the deep blue one.

Honestly I still don’t like the original PM models, especially the 3 handers. But the new SS chronos are absolutely killer

Yeah I hear this

I'd go so far as to say some of the 2nd series chrono codes are incredible. The date wheel had the same font as the rest of the dial, only had the "12" index, but really cool Dials, ceramic mid cases etc
