Nick,
Great review and thanks for sharing your thoughts on such an awesome watch. It makes me feel good to read other people's thoughts relative to the same watch I own. The thing that catches my eye each time I look at my watch is the ceramic bezel. The bezel is a beauty!
For a couple of years, I had my eye on getting an SS Sub w/date and all but was going to get one. Then one day, my AD showed me the IIc. I fell in love at first site with the watch. I put it on and the rest is history.
BTW, you're driving on the wrong side of the road....
Thanks again for sharing...
John
