Jeez! Well I now officially feel GREAT about my most recent Sub purchase. And to think I was considering flipping my Sub C cause I can see myself only wearing my NATO Sub (wait, that's a great name for it since it's a head only and I only want to wear NATO's with it, can I copyright that?) My next SUB will be a no date, and might only do NATO's with that to. Mr. Wood I thank you for showing me the (Sub) light.

Wow ---- you know when you put two mirrors face to face and whatever is in between, there seems to be infinite of them? Well, that's what this collection reminds me of

And I see some COMEX divers in the mix too!!

Very impressive and I love the "monopoly" reference also...

Thanks for the image!!!

Why would someone own so many of the same looking watch?

It is called SUBLOVE..... Mike Wood is a SUB FREAK!!!!
I bet he likes divers only. I am into divers only and I can understand the passion. Just like Mike's SUB collection, there is a GMTMASTER collection that I have seen also here!

My humble collection consists of.... (ahem...cough..) ... one 116610LN.

Seeing the subs on the Monopoly board made me think of that pesky Chance/Community Chest card where you have to pay for repairs on each of your houses and hotels. It made me wonder what the bill would be to service all of those beauties!
