Incoming - All black Sub

My first Sub. First impression, love it but feel a bit small. I have few GMTs and always though Sub will be bigger.


I also had the pleasure to see this beauty.

Congratulations on the Submariner! Such an icon and the perfect daily.

Also, that 5524R is drool worthy!!!

What size are your wrists? It looks on the verge of being too big (but still looks great). Maybe a Seadweller would be more to your liking but I think it would look absolutely huge on you. GMT is basically the same size but sits a bit lower. The Submariner looks amazing. Congrats.

Congrats!

Yes, the Sub isn't much bigger than the GMT Master. The flat case back of the GMT Master, is what really makes it seem smaller imo.

Congrats! Looks great on you. Looks like it's the perfect size to me. I believe the GMT's are the same 40mm size?

That Patek!

Got a small wrist and do agree both GMT and Sub are perfect size for me. I tried the Sea dewller once and it was clearly too big for me and I opted out

The Patek is really nice. I also asked about the 5212a and the feedback it is another hard to get watch but you never know
