Here we go again

Couple years back unloaded all but 1 of my watches. Turned down last 3 watches that my AD called me on. Finally said screw it, see you in a bit lol.

Very nice! Some of the recent threads have suggested that the colors are getting darker but this one looks great. Maybe it’s the lighting?

Quite the lighting on that watch to bring out those colors! Congrats, looks great! Maybe mine will arrive some time this year?

Did you use any filters when taking that picture?

Congratulations. I do like this watch and the novelty for me is the jubilee bracelet. I was not a fan until I owned one and got to wear it a bit. Maybe it is just shinny in the right way for me. Enjoy.

Considering his bio says "SS Sub". I'm guessing he kept the sub.

I did use filters. Took it in my car which is tinted in the parking structure of the mall so couldnt see blue at all. Does pop in the sunlight on it’s own though
