My sub is gone!
My first and only Rolex is officially gone! Coming to take its place I have a 16610lv and a 16750 on the way! I can't wait to get these peices in and post some wrist shots. My old sub served me well and we were inseparable but I have been eyeing the LV because of its green bezel and maxi dial. The 16750 will be for my 30th birthday coming up in Nov. I have been wanting a vintage piece since I bought my sub and this particular one is from my birth year, so it is even better. Wife says I better be done for a while but I'm already thinking a 114060 would round out the collection nicely.

Congrats! I hope your wife is understanding, because it sounds like you have been bitten by the bug!

It is definatelly a slippery slope. My wife was on board with me getting another Rolex for my 30th. I was torn between buying a brand new 114060 at the AD on my actual birthday or buying a vintage from my birth year. I figured I can always pick up a new 114060.

Congrats man. I think the 114060 can wait. You already have some tough wrist time decisions to make. What a pair!! The 16750 is gorgeous (I can't say the same for the carpet in the background though!;) )
