Where did you get the leather band for the ss daytona? did you just switch it with the white gold one from those pics? I love the leather but I was told you couldn't buy an authentic Rolex one.

Got mine from my local AD two days ago. No waiting, he told me that only repeat customers get the green. SD4000 was my first.

I like this watch more with each passing day. It's amazing that the dial changes color with the shifting light.

But it doesn't really matter, the green SubC remains kind of "Anniversary" Sub.

Ummm no...the only 50th Anniversary LV and still the best is the YG model with the green dial. The others would like to be.

Gap in dial

Noticing quite a few of these Sub C LV's have a gap between the = and 3 in 300 m

Is this considered normal by Rolex, or a dial printing error?

Awright ... OCD response....I believe Rolex now spaces the ft and m markers (larger gap on both sides of the = sign).

The "=" is dead centered with the 12 and 6 markers and the whole '1000ft = 300m" is dead centered under "Submariner" ...

I guess since ft is in italics, it appears to be closer to the = sign than the 3 ... A lot of analysis of something I have to squint really hard to see ...

These ceramic LVs are gorgeous. 50th anniversary? Don't kid yourself.

Dino, Am I loading wrong or is there not 1 sub in your pics?
