New 16610LN owner.

Hello from Houston,

I have been enjoying this forum for a while now since I finally became the proud owner of a 16610LN Sub.

After reading intensely about everything Rolex.... I now realize as a lifetime quartz owner that I never knew what a real time machine was. Even though I now know that after regulation and trying every position possible I have a +2\day chrono.

But wistfully after watching it on my desk and dresser in these strange positions I finally decided it looked much better on my arm and those +2\day didn't mean a thing when it comes to a work of beauty.

Still staring at it more often than I should

Thanks for listening, Jim
