My new Sub

This is my new Sub that I traded for my GMT IIc.

Congrats on the new Sub. Why you didn't like your GMT IIc?

Beautiful Submariner you have there. As much as I like the GMT IIc, I love the timeless lines of the Submariner. I would say you did well. I would have traded too. I have been wanting a Sub forever, but its always JUST out of my grasp.

One day it will happen.

Of course! And, they can also polish your center links if you have scratches so that you don't have to brush you center links at at all.

I have had my watch for 4 months and wear it almost every day, plus, sometime to bed and, it still looks great. It is my favorite watch.

I did like my GMT, but everytime I wore it it gained another scratch & it was annoying me.
I have always wanted a Sub anyway so now seemed the right time.
