Just bought a Submariner!!

Hello all, this is my first post, I went out yesterday and bought a Submariner non-date, black face, black bezel with a G serial number.

I finally took the plunge and look forward to years of wearing and then passing it down to one of my kids.

I think this forum is fantastic and I look forward to reading and contributing as much as I am able as a first time owner!

All the best.

Congratulations on buying the submariner,

I'm in Perth Australia and when i visited the Authorised dealer yesterday the watch was $7300 auD that's £4,450, i can get at least 10% off that.
so just wondered how much you payed? or do you know the retail price in the UK, because i'm coming back at Easter and it will probably worth me waiting.
Thanks

It's that i prefer the non-cosc due to the 2 lines of writing rather than the unbalanced 4 lines.
I've been told the new ceramic updated 14060M comes out in april with the same updates as the Sub date.
