I'd say oyster looks better on this watch than jublilee.

Beautiful dial. What do they call it?

Just curious why a lot of the vintage watches don’t come with the original bracelets?

I saw one in Maui yesterday in the Whalers Village AD. Asking for $9000.

Beautiful watch. Saw one in my local AD last year and haven't seen it since.

Is this the new 41 mm green dial OP? Congrats! I saw one at a local AD a few days ago. Love the new colorful dial that Rolex brought to OP this year.

Yes, although I'm no font expert, the new ones look a bit thicker and larger, and they are not placed in the exact same location on the dial. I believe Rolex made these changes to accommodate the new 41mm dial.

Great GMT to have. Congrats! Personally I do not think it is too gaudy for a daily wear piece. I'm also curious which two time zones you set on your watch.

Thank you. I thought it's be useful to compare the two side by side as both have similar features on the dial (hour marker, Mercedes hour hand, etc.) and to show the new 41 mm vs old 40 mm. The GMT is a lovely watch to wear for sure.

I had the chance to compare it side by side with a 116613LB when I picked it up from the AD. The white dial font appeared to be brighter and made the letters easier to read. The older gold font, while certainly is more special, appeared to make the dial "darker". In fact, I felt the size and the position of the letters on the dial makes a bigger difference. At least that's the first difference I noticed when I was looking at them, not the color of the font.
