Excellent example of the Turn-O-Graph, an often overlooked variant of the classic datejust. In this watch, it’s the details that matter. The details on this 16253 bezel is what truly separates this example - incredibly crisp, square teeth, and well defined details between the numerals and arrow with some minor oxidation on the gold. Edge of the crystal of the magnification is slightly concave which can distort the magnification at a certain angle. The case remains sharp, the bezel has very minor slack.
