Well...in light of these threads popping up, I thought I would start one for the classic Rolex we all love...

THE Rolex Submariner

5508, 5512, 5513, 14060, 14060M...

Post your pics, your love...your questions and comments here.

Personally, I would love to see some Subs on leather...

I did attempt a search for a similar thread and could not find one, so my apologies in advance if one already exists.

My 14060M:

Grumpy Badger · 18 May 2011, 07:32 AM

Cool, I'm in!

This be a 14060m!

Dr. Robert · 18 May 2011, 07:37 AM

we all live in a yellow submarine..........

Grumpy Badger · 18 May 2011, 07:39 AM

Hey, Dr Bob, are you colour blind or am I?!? That's a grey submarine!

I'm just wild about saffron, saffron's wild about me.....they call me mellow yellow, quite rightly, they call me mellow yellow!

(apologies to Donovan)

Indeed, but for that you must buy a Submariner Date, not a Submariner!

Maybe start a Sub-DATE thread...

jacket4256 · 18 May 2011, 08:25 AM

just got my sub 14060 brand new last week and so far I am in LOVE with it...

Grumpy Badger · 18 May 2011, 08:26 AM

ec51, help me out here...!

It's your post... I can't fight the 'Dates' of alone!!!

lhanddds · 18 May 2011, 08:29 AM

Someone forgot the 1680, this is the rare white 1680, not as common as the red as seen so frequently on this forum.

usbzoso · 18 May 2011, 08:29 AM

you missed 16610! I would have posted pics of mine but now i can't

Grumpy Badger · 18 May 2011, 08:32 AM

Arrrrggghhh!!!

The OP wants Submariners not Submariner Dates!!!

Call yourself WIS's!?!

klayface · 18 May 2011, 08:42 AM

My 16610 told me it feels neglected.
Well just have to go somewhere else were our type are welcomed with open arms.

Rollie2011 · 18 May 2011, 08:42 AM

THE rolex in my ever so humble opinion!

Got to have one in any collection

indeuce · 18 May 2011, 08:55 AM

Sorry about that...!

Okay, I apologize for the lack of explanation - but yes, this is the Submariner Owners Thread...not the Submariner DATE Owners Thread!

All of you cyclops owners...

conrail · 18 May 2011, 09:47 AM
