My Second Sub . . .

Dear Comrades,

I sold my Sub D serial last year, and as soon doing so, I felt something was missing in my life. Well, as all you know, our timepieces are not only time display purpose, but also a part of our lives.

Last week I came across with this irresistible Sub T serial with drilled lugs at another forum. And I didn't hesitate to pull the trigger! You know it feels.

More importantly, I managed to slide this baby under my lovely wife's sensitive radars! Married watch lovers understand what a challenge to do so

Photobucket stopped working at work computer. Here is the link to my post at WUS:

http://forums.watchuseek.com/f23/ano...ay-776292.html

I will take many more fotos and post them for you later this evening. So, this one is my only Sub so far.

Now hunt for a GMT Master II Pepsi (With drilled lugs) starts. One is never enough, two is too few . . .

Thank you for sharing my happiness.

Very Best Regards . . .

Capt. Serdal

Congrats! My wife can't tell the difference between most of my watches so she rarely notices if I have something new. Another reason why I do not like the PCL's and Ceramic bezels!

Congratulations. Maybe you should make an instructional post on how to get under the wife's radar. Lol
That would be a post I would love to read. Lol

A 16710 is an excellent watch... I'm biased though

Dearest Comrades,

Thank you so much for your very kind words, and for sharing my happiness!

Dear Heath, you read my mind :-) I am going to start a thread later about how to go stealth under our "LOVELY" (!) wifeys' radars ;-) You will read my post(s) by keeping your breath, believe me! :-)

All right, here are some night dark fotos I took 15 minutes ago for you:


















I hope you enjoy the fotos. I will take more fotos at work for you, but this time clearer fotos. Promise!

Very Best Regards . . .

Capt. Serdal
