Pictorial Review: BP fact. Rolex Two Tone / Blue dial a.k.a. 116613LB

[mike00]

Every Rolex is a king on his own but for me this is the ultimate Rolex of all time!The TT blue dial version a.k.a. 116613LB

I saw BP launched this version recently and I pulled the trigger on one from Trustytime / Andrew.
Delivery was fast, I believe within 6 days from China to The netherlands.

I know many Rolex lovers do like this version but are being hold back due to the dial color, many are having doubts the dial color is not simular to GEN. This is why I post many dial pics from many angles so you can judge for yourself regarding this particular thing. I have been wearing mine for a week by now and did not had the chance to post this review earlier due to holidays. I am very pleased with this BP version, it screams GEN imo (means "in my opinion" [MENTION=84501]QueTip[/MENTION] [emoji6]) and it is an extreme eyecatcher I noticed. Several times I noticed people checking my wrist and we all know that nice feeling when that happens. As we all know not a single Rolex Rep is perfect but for me this one is just perfect as it is. The nitpicking points I leave to the Rollie experts around here.

On to the specs and enjoy the pics guys!

Absolutely stunning, congratulations.

My boss owns the Gen and I can never take my eyes off it, yours looks just as good.

I love the gold on the bracelet, I'm tempted to get the LN version.

Thanks for taking the time to post all the pics.

No worries, had to come back for another look.

Is there a filter on the photos or is this how it naturally looks?

It really is beautiful, how's it functioning?

Are the endlinks all gold or is it just on the front? In other words, take pics of a side shot of the endlinks please.

Lol, what shall I say... It screams gen? I don't think so. Who ever says that this piece screams gen has never seen the gen lol.

Dial totally off, insert totally off, case is totally odd, bracelet sucks with the bare steel sides and SEL profile, I could go on for ever.

From the wrist it does imo... From close ups the experts still have enough complaints as usual.
