Beautiful! I would get it slightly polished by a professional without touching anything else than case or movement.
I think the lugs are a bit to round... but nothing that a professional couldn't work out...

Apart from that: Beautiful (and expensive) watch! Would love to have one as well! 馃榾

The text on the dial are all white.
Excuse my ignorance, but isn't the text on the majority of Rolex dive watches all white?

What differentiates this reference?

I appreciate there have been some exceptions, like the red line Subs & the more recent 50th anniversary sea dweller & JC D Blue, but generally speaking, the regular references have all white text.
