Just got my first Rolex!!

I bought a 14060 Sub no date yesterday and will be receiving it tomorrow. I am very excited, as this is my first Rolex. It is not my "grail," but it is the exact model that I hoped to start with since I saw it for the first time about 20 years ago.

Here are a couple of pics of the incoming piece:

Holy shatz,another lucky chap with a NO COSC 14060 !!!
Congratulations,I'm calling my grey market guy every other day to see if he's working to get me one but no joy yet.

Wear it with pride,you've got one of the best and last true breed Rolex.

Is that a scratch on the bezel near the 20 ??


The usual mandatory request for this watch : show me the bracelet stretch's condition,please !!!!!

Very nice choice. The no-date Sub is a common first choice for a lot of people, and I know it's usually because of the price, but it's a perfect daily watch. Takes a beating, real-life waterproof, accurate as heck, etc.

Grats!
