I can’t imagine a better place to start one’s addiction. It remains for me the most iconic watch there is.

Congratulations! Probably my favorite of all the Rolex’s I’ve ever owned. I have a 16610 Vserial I will never get rid of.

Done and Done!

Went by the AD bright and early and my rep had it all ready to go for me. Stripped the stickers and sized the bracelet and it went immediately on my wrist. No high res picture, no 4k youtube video can do the subtle glow from the brushed case and bracelet justice. It's amazing, I'm on cloud nine. They even gifted me a Wolf watch-winder! I was planning on getting one eventually, so that was a real treat.

Anyway, this is my Submariner. There are many like it, but this one is MINE!





Perfect for Oktoberfest this afternoon

Congrats. Great watch for a first Rolex. A sub was my first Rolex too. I still have it 26 years later. Wear it in good health.
