Finally Pics of my SS Sub Date

I bought my SS Sub Date about a a lil more than a month ago (thanks to Sphereman, again ) , actually I remember it was on April 5th. I haven't had a chance to post any pictures. Finally I got in touch with a camera. So here they are. Since Ziphe and I will be in Vegas in 2 weeks, we might as well take some nice wrist shots there too. Enjoy. I apologize if I'm not that great of a photographer.

hey.. Rickyslam.
Good to see you wearing your Sub in good health!

Have fun in Vegas...
Man.. I have not been to Vegas in 5 years or so. I should really take some time to check out some of the new hotels there. :)

Hey...congrats bud.

I'm still looking for my first Sub. I really want one from my birth year, 1975, but it seems to be VERY hard to find!

Congrats again!

Lovin' iT!

Yeah I love it. I was originally going to pick up an AK. But I decided to save up for a Sub. And luckily enough a month later Sphereman just to happened to have one for sale. We met up somewhere pretty close to Redondo Beach, CA and the rest is history.

I didn't believe him at the time but he did tell me that I will want to get another, and I've been craving for another one ever since.
