Do it! Can't go wrong with a gold sub!

Black is nice too... Look more serious.. Seems not as popular as the blue.

Good luck and looking forward to your incoming !!

Is this a moment in time for congratulating? Or just making sure it's a good thing?

Tough choice! Was easy for me though, I'm a nut for blue so sub was the only choice.

That and I'm one of the deluded waiting for the ceramic Pepsi!

Anyone know the weight of the 116618 with all links in the bracelet and how it compares to other Rolex goldies?

I believe it is 12 links on the gold sub? However I am not positive.

Thanks everyone for the great photos. Keep 'em coming if they're out there. It's significant motivation!
