That is interesting! It's true that those screen protector are silly good nowadays!
On your 16618, there is no sign of use/seeing the steel underneath on the mid case it self?
I am digging the idea of using them on leather strap only.

Not showing any wear at all but its in a rotation of about 40 so factor that in. I usually wear about 3 different ones for 2 days, then switch to 3 others. Frequent changes going on, lol.

They are not. Octagonal wire, slightly smaller size.

Thanks KJ2020 !

Did you get the 3135 or 2836? How is the AR compared to JF?

I think it's this one the newer 2019 model that you have in the pic above:

Yep that's the one. Mine is 2836. I can't compare to JF, never had one. You should know though that unless you get the 3135 the DW and cyclops will be in the ETA position. There's no DWO to move the date over to the Rolex date window position. 3135 date window will be in the Rolex position since that's where the DW is.

Weast!
This thread is really the most helpful thread on the only maker for a 16613 at the moment, thank you KJ2020

With the 2836 dial date window, I am wondering if there is a good champagne Rolex font overlay that keeps the numbers in the same 2836 position? Or are there any available 2836-spec datewheels (not DWOs) in champagne with Rolex font, other than sourcing straight from BP?

I saw eta date wheels in champagne but with the regular eta font on eBay... But none with Rolex font. I would say impossible but let me know if you find anything

Very good question bro. Mine should have come with a champagne DW/DWO, I was cheated. If you look at all the sample pics of these models, or see them in M2M they have one.

I've haId it in mind to locate one but haven't pursued it aggressively due to higher priority projects. Raffles dials is one place to look but I've had couple of his champagne DJ41 DWOs and they aren't great, the fonts are too wide.

I think it's a one-off, my fault for not picking it up on QC. It was part of a multi watch order with multiple previous rejections. I pretty much let it go to ease the burden on the TD.
