yes but for me it's a psychological issue...we are crazy maniacs
Yes we are 😂. I’m not sure on the new 12 black dials, but on 1165xx the subdials are crafted in white gold, not platinum 😉

So my 126500 “pre raid” can be listed for 2500 in m2m as a special “pre raid model” ?
(As if that means anything)
🤣

This will be a small bump for them, if anything.

Sold the older 11 black model quite fast after receiving it, optically there was just something not right imo. The subdials were not sophisticated enough, started to dislike it. Also didn’t like the bezel, don’t know why. And now? They changed both! Love it, that steel protective ring makes the watch so much classier! Again: just my opinion;)

J'ai vendu l'ancien modèle 11 noir assez rapidement après l'avoir reçu, optiquement, il y avait juste quelque chose qui n'allait pas à mon avis. Les sous-cadrans n'étaient pas assez sophistiqués, j'ai commencé à ne pas l'aimer. Je n'ai pas non plus aimé la lunette, je ne sais pas pourquoi. Et maintenant? Ils ont changé tous les deux ! J'adore, cet anneau de protection en acier rend la montre tellement plus classe ! Encore une fois : ce n'est que mon avis;)
I totally agree

I don't think that's what he meant by lug to lug. ;)

Idk but from one sel peak to another sel peak it is shorter than 116500
I know it’s weird. I think it’s because the lugs taper downward now.

One way to settle this. Time to break out the calipers 😉

Just check here on pic, you can see that 116500 is taller from sel to sel

I hear ya bud, you’re not wrong. It’s just that the 11 case lugs are more flat, where the 12 lugs slope down. The 12 measures the same as my Clean Pepsi. I still say it’s an optical illusion 😁

I think that you misunderstand what he is saying...

- The design and shape of the SELs is different than the 116500s in the area circled in this picture... not the Watch Case.
