I think the next president should be a Submariner.

Do we have your vote?

I've always wondered what my bluesy would look like with a president bracelet on there and that settles that

Maybe if it didn't have the SS casing

If I am not mistaken, the French word for "nightmare" is "couche mar".

This is a couche (Sub)mar(iner).

If you were to put a serti dial on that one, it would stray about as far from the original Submariner concept as you could get.

I agree that it looks kinda odd. I also would love to see it on an all YG sub. Might not look so bad.

I was thinking something similar. But there are no Sub officers running! McCain is a naval aviator, and his dad was a Sub officer.

Not very aesthetically pleasing (imho), but having a gold case would probably make a world of difference.
