Nothing like that "just got it, it is now mine" feeling.

Grady - you will love it - it is a go and do everything watch. I owned it and LOVED it. Congrats on the last remaining (in production) Rolex Icon

Thanks.

I really feel that next year is the year for the Submariner to be tweaked.

I don't think it will be dropped, but regardless, I don't have to worry about it.

Already got some salt on it, which is to say some scratches on the bracelet, so it's a keeper for sure.

I had the watchmaker put it on the machine and it showed that it's running on average +5.6 sec/day.

We both agreed that it needs some real world time to see what it does.

Other than that, which is easily fixed, it just seems to be perfect in every way.

I'm pressed for time now, but here's a couple of quick and dirty shots for your entertainment and amusement.

Without further ado, may I present my very own 14060M.

More later.

Congrats!
