Incoming: Rolex WG Submariner 116619

Just picked up the Rolex WG Submariner, 116619. I have always enjoyed the Submariners and have owned many over the years. I have owned three YG Submariners and have always liked the WG but have never gotten around to buying one. I took the plunge and am impressed. The dial and bezel are an amazing color of blue and of course the fit is perfect with the Glide Lock bracelet. I have tried to diversify my collection with other watches and not be too deep, a pun, in with the Submariners. But I believe that I am going to stop fighting my urge to own multiple in my collection. I currently own the 116610LV, the 126600 and the 116619. I think that might be it for divers right now but you never know.

Amazing watch, you're going to love it.

As for owning multiple divers, I currently enjoy the 619, 114060 and 116600. All very different in my book.
