Congrats. IMO, the LV is the best in-production SS Sub available. You did well.

The yacht master was actually my only friend who actually gets it. He is quite a bit older then me and has always been a bit of a mentor, escoecislly after my Dad passed. He has a pretty decent collection and he would let me borrow it pretty frequently. His everyday is a 1991 Rolex sub that he got when he got out of seal school. I thought about buying his yacht master numerous times because I honestly didn’t think I’d be about to find a ceramic sub in my price range. When I created the account that was my original plan and I figured it was only a matter of a days before I purchased his YM, ybut the bracelet kept scaring me off. It just seemed to pick up too many light scratches. So every time I was about to pull the trigger I just couldn’t do it.

I have owned a couple TAGs, and few other watches , but nothing this substantial.

If anyone knows how to resize a pic from an iPhone I will gladly post the wrist pics. If not if someone wants to shoot me a private message with their email, I know I can send them via email.

When this occurred, everyone i spoke to said the chances of me getting one would be slim(at least for the time being) and maybe I should check the grey market.

Today during work I saw an email from the jeweler letting me know they just got a 2022 Rolex Submariner black face- green bezel or commonly referred to as the Starbucks version and would I be interested?

It wasn’t the sub that I was originally wanting, but i know luck was smiling down on me since I have never purchased anything from this dealer and besides one email, I only spoke with him one time.

None of my friends really understand the elation I’m feeling, so I figured I would share with the forum.

Congrats!
