Hi all,

Up for grabs today (and I promise I'll keep it up for sale this time) 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 that I need to be a little more brutal with my collection, with my wedding just around the corner and a new PC build in full swing, I need to cull pieces that simply do not get wrist time, despite how much it pains me.

The condition is identical to when I listed it back in December. Very lightly worn but has not been taken out of the box (aside from taking today's pics) since the previous listings. Might be the odd hairline here and there, but overall the watch is in very good condition. 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.

As always, I chose the buyer with preference given to members in good standing, Supporters/Patrons, members I have previously dealt with and UK-based members. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me. To the successful buyer, please do not leave any notes when making payment, payment is to be made in GBP ONLY.

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

As mentioned, I did list this back in December but withdrew the sale. The original listing can be seen here - https://forum.replica-watch.info/th...n-mop-dial-the-ultimate-f-you-watch.10996671/

My price = £950 firm
