First arrived thanks to DavidSW

Hi All,

My first post, though I have been trawling the forums for quite awhile now, dangerous thing this internet.

As a Tag owner I never thought I'd have the opportunity to buy a Sub... almost up traded to a Breitling Superocean Heritage last year but thought better of it, after all - what was the point of flipping up to an 'interim' watch when it would just be a step to my Sub.

So... last week I took a dive and thought... why the hell not? DavidSW seemed to have the best rep going around and I'm pleased to say today landed my very first Rolex, a SubC.

So, just a big thanks to the community for all the helpful information posted here, it really helped me make my decision particular who to buy from and what model to choose.

I should add that I am located in Australia and David delivered the watch on a very impressive turnaround, I had full confidence in the delivery!

Thanks all!

I'm sure there's some rule about it sitting on my wrist, but I like this shot for something I just cooked up in 5 secs!
