Incoming Sub. It feels grrreat!!
Bought a Sub yesterday. I must say it feels great to be wearing it again. That dial and bezel are mesmerising. Unfortunately the Explorer 2 made way for it. If the dial of the Ex2 was the same black as the sub I probably would have kept it, but the way it looked in most lights, brownish, drove me a little insane.
I kept looking at old pictures of my previous Sub and felt massive regret for letting it go, so decided to do something about it, and I'm so glad I did.
So I'm very pleased at the moment, currently enjoying that new Rolex 'squeak'.

I removed the stickers and took it for its first trip to the beach today. Not quite the weather for a dip in the sea just yet though.

Very nice watch, hope you enjoy it. By the way, noticed in one of the pics you got a few drops of water on it...better have that checked out.

Congratulations on a beautiful Rolex! Don't wear it in the rain, or you will loose the new squeak.
