Hello From Long Island NY
Hi guys, Been lurking for awhile now, but finally registered and also sent my 2018 pledge
Looking forward to learning and reading about Rolex and other fine swiss watches here in this great forum!
So, short story:
Many years ago, after my dad passed away I (regretfully) ended up giving away his Submariner to my brother. Fast forward to now, I was able to find an exact model that he had (p series 16610 with lug holes). I’m very happy with the sub and each time I look at it I can’t help but feel sentimental.
Hence my username.
