5 Digit incoming for my 21k post

I’ve been loving the feel of the 5 digit models lately and found this beauty with some nice patina on the hour markers. Thank all of you enablers for making this hobby of ours so fun.

With the chunkiness of the new ceramic subs, the 5digit models are starting to really standout as modern classics. Absolutely beautiful watch. Thanks for the pics!

Congrats! I was just looking at some five digit subs after seeing one in the wild. I think it would go great with my 41 Sub.

Huge congrats! That is the watch that started my Rolex journey. I saw it in a store window many years ago, and thought, I’m going to have one of those some day, and so I did. It looks great on you! It even looks great, on me. keep on posting. Cheers!
