This watch still really excites me.
And that is a big statement after over 35 years of collecting and probably 70 watches having been on my wrist.
This watch has a special place in my heart.
The 16808 enjoys the best of both worlds.
It’s my watch of choice in the sun and will always be in my top 5 watches.
Anyone else feel like this about this watch?
If not what is your sunshine go to watch for the beach???
Let’s hope we can all get there soon.

A very nice submariner ref
Honestly, i have no Rolex. I like the watch you show. For the easy, i call your watch the bleu yellow submariner. If i buy one, it is probably the ref with the stainless steel case. Beach watch, my Omega Seamaster 300m diver i bought for that. ...
Thank you.
An Omega is a very cool beach watch and if it’s good for 007 then that’s cool. Enjoy. M.
The story
It was a surprise. Let me tell more. I bought it, so no present of a beloved one, or somebody else. It surprised me. I never thought it was that good. The 42mm fits my wrist perfect, so no feeling i must put my Omega off after let i say 5 hours. I could f...
What a great result.
When a watch fits that well and feels so good on the wrist it’s a rare thing. It sounds like you have found your soul mate. Enjoy and we all only need one soul mate. M.
The luck
It is coincidenze i think. See a watch, get information, call a dealer, make an appointment, and talk and fit. If after the purchase it will be clear you done a perfect bought, it is worth double the money. And such a watches become keepers. What i’d expe...
