Great piece! I think it should be worn with shorts and flip-flops though, that is the proper way to sport a gold Sub! :-)

Many congrats!

Thank you John.

It really is an amazing timepiece and one of the best YG Rolex models ever made in my opinion. Even much more stunning in person, if that is possible.

From the bottom of my heart, I truly do hope that you get this reference one day. As Neil said before in one of his posts, you of all people will be able to appreciate this reference the most.

My plan is to be there, Steve, just as long as nothing goes sideways in the new year in terms of scheduling. Will confirm this on the Vegas GTG thread in early 2016.

Don't know if I am going to bring all three. I travel with only one watch.

Thanks, Patrick.

I think I am done this year and the next too.

We need to see more shots of yours too. After all, it was one of the first ones on this Forum that caught my eye.

Sorry Eric for taking so long to get to this thread; it's my first opportunity to get to the forum since I posted in the WRUW today; the new Sub is fantastic and giving me a bit of desire which isn't healthy and would also cause me to pay my buddy, Adam, $50 for a lost wager. So it's not going to happen but never the less, your watch is a beauty!!!! Congratulations!!!!

Don't worry about it, Lee.

Thanks for the compliments on the Sub. It really is a beautiful and stunning reference. Not to sound like an enabler (we have enough of those around here ) but you should really try one of these on at your AD and go from there. Hell, I'll pay Adam the $50 for you if you pick up this bad boy.

Spoken like a true friend but losing $50 to Adam from me or someone else is a shame that would be hard to bear. But seriously, maybe some time in the future. And thanks for being a great enabler!!! Congratulations again on the beauty!!!!
