Is it safe to wear a Submariner on a cruise?

Just wanted to share some pictures I took of the sub in Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel. Went scuba diving as well and will definitely do that again.

If anyone wants to know, all the ADs had a bunch of Datejusts but nothing special. One told me they have a bunch of Subs in the safe, but wouldn't even put someone on a waitlist that hasn't bought anything else there.

However, I tried on the yellow gold sub with black dial and that's the goal for my 30th. I have 4 years to save so hopefully I can make it happen.

I cruise on carnival so I pretty much have to see a bunch of Invictas before I can spot Rolex and Omegas. One guy even had a yellow gold day date.

I believe that was in Montego bay, Jamaica. Best water I've seen in all my cruising is in Grand Turk, it's still and clear. And that's where the under water cliff is where it goes from about 50 feet deep to a quick holy crap it's the abyss.

Awesome. I’ve had my BLRO in the ocean and pools in Maui all week, even went snorkeling around some coral reefs with it...handled it just fine and adds to the character of the watch imo.

Best keep away from the "Straits of Hormuz" for a while.

I bought an Exp II in Bergen, NO just before beginning a 12 day coastal cruise. No pool on board but the biggest potential risk was cramped quarters with narrow metal door frames. I have actually never been on a regular "Love Boat" type cruise. I was watching Northern Lights out on deck in my down coat.
