Congrats Eric, I genuinely think that the Sub-C is one of the finest watches Rolex has ever made - very impressive timepiece! Enjoy wearing it

okay - the story went like this...

as some of you have read the other thread, i had a really really crap morning (work related) and since the wife was "working from home" today, we decided to head out to the shops to get things we need for our weekend away.

this is where my London AD located. whenever i go there, i always pop in to say hi.

when i walked in, my AD manager saw me and waved, so i waved back and asked how her holiday was - then i asked, how many Sub-Cs have you sold so far?

she replied - you wont believe it, i have just received our first one 20 mins ago and was going to call you after these paperwork... would you like to sit down?

it was totally unexpected.... (i have a feeling this Sub-C was supposed for someone else...)


the rest was history.... here are more pix of the beauty














thanks for looking. im very happy and excited about this piece.

(is this okay Doc?)

I would have gotten the DSSD. It would be too big for your wife to steal.
