Got the call... 116610!

I've been waiting for this one to arrive on my wrist... In short, love it!



Well balanced and feels great!


I must celebrate...




It's definitely worth the wait!!

Very sharp! Congrats.
How's the weight? I have read the new sub weighs a little more because of bracelet/clasp.

Bob, Weight is very well balanced. The new solid links and clasp are super comfortable and slightly heavier compared to the 16610.

Very cool Pete! I am WAY jealous! So, does this mean that the new SS Sub. has been officially released for sale in the US or do you have an inside contact?
