First Rolex - 116610LN - Mini-Review
What more can be said about this watch? It is Rolex's second best selling watch and as one of the most popular, the most emulated, but no one can beat the real thing. I got this new beauty today in the mail and have had it a few hours. Like many have said, it feels and wears like the perfect watch. I'm loving it very much already, and I would like to thank everyone on this site for the help and knowledge which has made TRF the rich source for information regarding everything Rolex watches that it is.
The watch wears perfectly IMO, and even for my puny 6-inch wrist, I was able to size the watch by myself in 10 minutes to get the perfect fit. The clasp sits perfectly center on my wrist, which amazes me considering my wrist size. This bracelet really is amazing. The lugs are just right, and don't hang over my wrist bone. So, for anyone on the fence about getting a new Submariner, this watch is basically perfect. And for anyone with a 6 inch wrist wondering if it will fit, yes it definitely will, and you'll love it. Cheers  |

Congratulations and it looks awesome on your wrist. That is the beauty of Rolex, most of their watches look great on wrists of many sizes.
