Finally got the call from my AD

Hey everyone!

Exciting news! I couldn't contain my excitement any longer—I finally got that call from my AD after what felt like forever, and guess what? My 126610LV has finally made its grand entrance! 🎉

You bet the moment I heard the news, I dropped everything and sprinted over to inspect that beauty, and you know what happened next? Yep, I didn't waste a second and snagged it right then and there! 💥

Why the green bezel, you ask? Well, after rocking the all-black date submariner for a while, I figured it was time for a change, and boy, am I glad I did! The green bezel is an absolute stunner, especially the way it plays with different lights—talk about mesmerizing! 😍

Can't wait to show it off and share more stories with you all soon!

I am so jealous, been waiting and waiting at my AD.
Considering going gray, but maybe there is hope
Wear it in good health.

Why wait, if this is what you want and you have the money you could be wearing this watch over the weekend.

At the moment, the value proposition for buying from an AD has evaporated.

Congratulations. It's a nice watch. If you have kept your LN they will make a good complementary pairing.

Congrats! Did you sell your LN or plan on keeping both? If both do you think it's going to be a 50/50 split in wrist time?

Congrats man. How long did you wait for that call? Where you located? Any prior history with the AD?
