Hi guys,

After an absence of almost two weeks, I slapped on my beloved Black Sub back on my wrist......and she's right on track!!

The ultimate and quintessential Rolex out there, guys. If you've got one, hang on to it; and if you don't, then get one.....by hook or by crook!!

I have to say JJ that the Sub is what drew me to Rolex...though I do not own a 16610 yet, some time soon I will! Nice pics!

Thanks, buddy. Yes, life would be kinda dull without both my Subs.....and I'm glad I decided NOT to sell off this beauty!!

SLS · 10 April 2009, 05:33 PM

JJ, I will probably not buy new...but if I do it will be from one of the great guys here on TRF, I have one vintage Sub incoming and after that, a tritium dialed 16610 is next on my list!

Nice watch. The 16610 was my first Rolex. And speaking of price hikes, I got it 1 day after a price increase in 2004...talk about great timing. I miss that watch sometimes, but I am happy with my SD that replaced it.

Prince · 10 April 2009, 09:30 PM

Great photos of a great watch, JJ.

BTW, that's a great song, too. Los Bravos - yeah, baby!!!
