TOG stuck in rush hour...

traffic..very gloomy rainy day today here and Calgary, AB and while I was stuck in traffic..decided to take my phone camera out and took some quick shots of my TOG in the wild.




Before getting home went to visit my cousin and took his F series 16610 to bring it to my uncle next week. He inherited it to his Dad as he is looking into a new watch. I'm starting to really like the 16610 again. I was thinking of trading my TOG for this Subdate...





Have a great weekend all,

Andy

I'm a fan of the Sub-Date more than the TOG, but the red second hand on the TOG is pretty cool looking.

Enjoyed seeing the TOG shots, not a lot of them around and they're great IMHO. The red seconds hand really pops! A Sub and a TOG would be an excellent combination...

I was using the Nokia N95 phone camera. Doesn't work as well as a normal digital camera but still takes great shots

The TOG is a unique watch, and if there is any way to keep it, do so and save for a new SUB. I think the sport/dress combo of the TOG is just loades with class and daring. So I would hang on to it, and you will not regret it. I am a believer that the grass is never greener with a Rolex. If you have one, love it, and then give it a sibling.

Exactly, Hamilton - they're amazing photos.

Your TOG looks really slick, well done.
