Something Amazing Happened!
I've been a member here for over a year, researching the iconic Submariner.

i pulled the trigger on a LNIB 16610LN about a month ago deciding on a late issue model vs. ceramic Submariner from a trusted seller here.

Here is my first "wrist shot":



The amazing part of this thread is that the watch was running 2+ seconds a day fast, according to time.gov. Now it has been right on nuts for 5 days running.

I am amazed!
