Good looking watch

 

Thank you!

 

Nice! I love this movement. And looks like strait end aftermarket bracelet should fit .
Enjoy!

 

Thanks so much!

 

Nice. I've been eyeing the bracelet version. Seems like a low key sporty watch. Haven't seen it in person yet.

Nice one! I was really tempted by this model but can't get over the disappointment with a fixed bezel. You don't mind? The typography feels less charming than on a vintage example but there are ofc benefits to buying new vs vintage.

 

Thank you! Yes it seems difficult to find an original in good condition,plus I wanted a new one. And I got this one at a good price.

 

I really want one, but at 38mm, it might be a bit small for me. No AD's around here carry them, so I haven't been able to try one on. Do they where bigger, smaller, or spot on the 38mm diameter?

 

Thanks,I don't know because I haven't received it yet(just ordered yesterday).

 

I really like the look of this watch and I've considered getting one. The size is great for the retro design, I like the strap and that dash of yellow adds a little pizazz. I'm also a fan of it's heritage, the 516 having been worn by Roger Moore in Live and Let Die.
Very cool.

 

I bought this watch from Luxury Direct. They have one left for $455 i anyone is interested.Retail price is $650.

 

I'm a big fan of the case shape of the PR516. 👍

I love the case on this watch. I wish the bezel rotated though.

 

Me too,but it is still a beautiful watch.

 

Great looking watch,I love the look of the strap

 

It’s got a fun retro charm to it.

Hope you have the watch by now as it’s 10 days since the purchase. Any first impressions?

 

I like how the indices pop from the dial, but manage to match the casing at the same time. Haven't seen this reference before, but it's nice! Strap has a great contrast to the dial and bezel too!
