Something cost you an arm and a leg

Cdaddylutz · 19 September 2020, 12:11 AM

Broken wrist

Definitely missing an area rug somewhere there.

Is the red sofa (chair?) the Como from DWR?

You’re not wearing your leather jacket or Birkenstocks.

Well folks, just back from the AD.

My initial impressions may vary from some others on this reference but IMHO it wears about the same practically speaking. I think anyone claiming its substantially different in terms of size on the wrist may be looking for differences where they don't exist... at least that's what I think

Where I do notice a difference so far is in "feel" on the wrist. For some strange reason, it feels slimmer to me and I can't quite put my finger on why. Perhaps the wider bracket foot print helps to create an imagine of the lugs curving in to the wrist but nonetheless the "feel" is a slimmer Sub at least to me.

IMO, the difference in clasp width is way overdone. Yes its slightly larger but on the wrist I don't notice it. I do notice the lug profile for certain. At this stage I can't say I prefer one over the other but time will tell.

I also believe the bezel markings look slightly smaller at least to my eye ... again that could just be me looking for small differences

Overall I really love what they've done with this one.

Caveat ...I agreed to gift my wife the lucky 3 Sub (why would I need both

) so we both came out winners today.

Oh and in case you're wondering ... its supposed to come in a medium box

I also still received the old style warranty card with my name etc.

The obligatory shots.

Nice to see that this crowd appreciates the nice furniture almost as much as the watches!

One more ... what would an incoming be without a cocktail

Thank you Lee. I know you weren’t a big fan of the Supercase ... this one may be of interest to you, should you be considering a Submariner. Again, I wouldn’t say it wears smaller OR larger, just different and IMO in a good way

Wonderful and I agree with the difference more in the feel on the wrist vs look. Noticed that with my 12 bluesy. Excited for you! Can’t wait until mine comes in.
