Added another one!

Picked up an M Serial 16610 today. First SS Submariner I have owned in years. I think this one will be a keeper. Fitted my SubC Glidelock Bracelet on it, great combo!

You're on a roll Sam. Congrats. I've tried to buy two watches in the last week and both times the sellers left me standing on the street corner. Oh well. No biggie. I'll just keep enjoying all the incomings here. Life must be good in the Big D!

Thanks man!. You just have to keep your eyes on the classified section here in the forum. I bought mine from Limey, when they show up, they usually are gone pretty quick.

Thanks!

And I have had a few people flake out on me before while trying to buy watches also. You have to expect that from time to time.
