A couple of christmas presents!

A good christmas! My wife upgraded my SS Sub Date to a Bi-Metal Sub Date as my xmas present. In return, I brought her a Ladies datejust diamond set dial with a bi-metal jubilee bracelet and jubilee dial. All in all a good christmas.

Two fantatsic watches, I liked my SS Sub but I cannot think of another watch I would rather have than the blue faced bi-metal sub.

Sorry the pic is a bit blurry.

My wife has been giving me grief for years because I had a Rolex and she didn't (8 years to be exact!). This year I decided to surpise her, she saw a blue faced diamond set dial a few months back and thought that that was what she was getting!!

I don't think I will ever change the blue faced Sub, in my humble opinion it is the best looking watch!

You survived 8 yrs?

I agree about the T/T Blue Sub being the best looking watch.
