Hi guys and Girls
I joined last night after the purchase of my "Holy Grail" Watch -
A Black Submariner 16610 V Series.
It was a 40th Birthday present to myself and it will come in useful this year as I'm off on holiday and will wear it diving throughout.
I have to say, I Love it.
I have decided to wear it everyday possible, for work and all other everyday tasks.
I will remove it for really damaging duties, but on the whole this is now my main daily wearer.
I'm wearing it right now..........

I did try the Sub C but as i only have small wrists decided the 16610 was the one for me. Classic and really comfortable.



Matt
