Officially got my first Rolex!

I'm still at a loss for words, but picked up a brand new Submariner 114060 and am in love with this watch! I can't stop staring at it!

I have some questions I forgot to ask though and hoping you can help! Water (duh its a submariner!) but regarding pools with chlorine, after swimming with it just rinse it with tap water and some soap?

Hot water (jacuzzis). Can you take it in a jacuzzi? I've read some watches you can't because of the seals, what about the Sub?

And of course, a PIC!

Congrats! Looks great.

Wear the hell out of it and stop worrying. It laughs at pools and jacuzzis.

Congrats. Wear it in good health.
FWIW, I wear my watches in pools and occasional jacuzzis. Rinse afterwards with fresh tap water or while showering and have never had a problem.

Dive and hot tub the sucker! Short of tossing it into a volcano you can't kill it. Soap and water will clean it up just fine.
