Incoming 16613 TT Sub!

Just completed the purchase of a two tone blue dial Submariner circa 2000 (the year of my son's birth).

Should be here tomorrow or Monday!

This!

Hopefully it arrives tomorrow, but not sure if Saturday delivery is available where I live.

Pics will be posted after arrival and after I get them sized appropriately for the forum.

It was a difficult decision going back and forth between the new version of the watch with the glide clasp and ceramic bezel, but ultimately I went with the selected model for the richness of color the dial displays. And the fact that it coincides with my sons birth year really pushed the decision toward the 16613.

I'm so glad I went with the 16613. I tried on the new version of the same watch and it is very nice, but there is something special about the depth of color on the 16613 and today in the sun in was gorgeous!
