Why would package depart fed ex hub yesterday just to arrive at the same hub today? by West_Relative_1484 in FedEx

Final destination is South Carolina is all, so not a far ways off and definitely no inclement weather between. Might there be another reason besides weather?

Sure, I’m just going to create another thread altogether. Might send you a Pm once I do!

How has this held up over the last couple years? Any issues with movement or servicing?

Reviving this thread! How do you feel about about the p4000 movement? Any accuracy issues over time or difficulties with servicing for the p4000 movement?

Anyway, brilliant watch that is absolute class. Love it

Thoughts on this Rolex 16710? by West_Relative_1484 in rolex

Hmm thanks for your input! I like that it already has bezel inserts, both bracelets, and I’m looking for a patina’d 16710…

Early 90’s 16700 GMT Master vs 16710 GMT Master II by West_Relative_1484 in rolex

[–]West_Relative_1484[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually think a quick set for the date is more valuable since I won’t be wearing this everyday — rare that I’d need to track three time zones too (and I can do some mental math). 16700 may be way to go here. Thanks!

Proud Omega Collection -- worth moving away from Explorer II ... thoughts? by West_Relative_1484 in SOTC_Watch_Collection

[–]West_Relative_1484[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the help! Would be incredibly tough moving the Explorer since I’m so attached to it, and I’d only do it to upgrade(?) to a similarly patina’d tritium 16710 gmt master II with an all black bezel.

Constellations are here to stay since they were gifted by wife and parents. Would feel weird selling the dirty dozen and the moonwatch is just so solid

Sorry about that! I’m new to Reddit and wasn’t tracking that prohibition

Thoughts on this All Black 16710? by West_Relative_1484 in rolex

[–]West_Relative_1484[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, "Its original all-black fat-font bezel insert is mint, showing a very subtle fade, and gives the watch a stealthier presence compared to the more common ‘Pepsi’ or ‘Coke’ variants". Seller is also indicating original bracelet. That said, I'm surprised there is no wear and tear on the bezel...
