Up for grabs today is a rather rare and stunning, 116508 TBR with the Tahitian MoP dial and YG leaf sub-dials.
This is an "off-catalogue" reference from Rolex and a build you do not see very often. It's certainly an eye-catcher and one that requires an "I don't give a fuck" attitude when you wear it.
Aside from its, on the face of things, very brash appearance, I find this to be an incredibly beautiful and elegant watch. In outdoor lighting, the sine and sparkle of the moissanite bezel, coupled with the complex and ever-changing dial, you have a stunning watch that you will not be able to take your eyes off of.
I've decided to sell this as my Daytona collection is currently at 20, whilst my watch box can hold 18. I was debating buying another box to house them but I know where that will lead. Additionally (and as you can probably tell from the pictures) this watch has barely been worn since completing the build, so I figure this is the best candidate for the chopping block (along with 1 more).
The condition is overall very good, as expected of a barely worn watch, but there are some light hairlines here and there (see pics). Additionally, the BTF base was purchased after they improved their YG plating tone, when I built this I had intended to have it YG wrapped/plated but the stock colour was so nice that I decided it wasn't worth it.
The build costs are as follows:
BTF 116508 "John Mayer" - $627 ~ £501
SW tahitian MoP dial - $275 ~ £219
Moissanite bezel - $308 ~ £246
@Solution6 assembly cost - £70
Total cost = £1036
I then sold the spare dial and bezel here for £60 total
Hence, the final build cost = £976
My price = £950 firm
