Incoming Alert and only had to wait two weeks!
I'm still in shock and cannot believe I have a new Submariner 126610LN on my wrist right now!

Bought a new Datejust a few weeks ago from my AD and mentioned to the SA that I'd be interested in a Submariner at some point. Fast forward two weeks and she emails me to let me know she has one in the safe with my name on it if I want it!

She brought it out today and I was the first person to ever try it on and man, what an absolute beauty! The hype around SS sports models is totally understandable, the wrist presence is something else.

I will say that the 41mm case feels exactly like my 40mm 114060 Sub did but the bracelet definitely looks wider. I personally like it and thing it definitely makes the watch look more substantial.

Looks great!!! The Sapphire looks so clean, I know some have speculated AR coating and I am believing it more and more.

I don’t think there is, it definitely seems just like previous Sub crystals I’ve encountered. The angle of the photo minimized any reflection.

Who knows, funny thing is another guy was there picking up his ceramic Kermit while I was there too. The AD must have gotten a Sub shipment in the past few days.

Certainly a much more harmonious and better considered design
