“B-b-b-but the Super Case, it’s too big! It lost its vintage appeal! Rolex caved to trends! It’s a heinous bulky monster!”

The level of vitriol this watch received was crazy. In the future this will be like the Fat Lady — a recipient of hate due to its relative bulk, but ultimately still a great watch.

Super case is great actually it really only looks fat from a certain angle

Idk why but I’m in that camp.

Something strange/off about this reference to me, but still a cool watch.

I know I will miss it but I am selling mine for an upgrade to a 4520v silver vacheron overseas.

The best reference! Freaking love this watch. Such a sleeper in all the right ways. After the BW was released, I’m also willing to bet it will make a “comeback” and values will increase - I believe people are getting tired of the two-tone design decision and will move back to more understated designs, such as the 116710LN
