A special day...Submariner Date 126610LN
So today I picked up my Submariner. This is my third Rolex but the excitement and thrill of collecting this piece was no less enjoyable than the first and second time.

I am really proud to own a Submariner, its a watch ive seen growing up in Bond films, on adverts, and as I got older, on the wrists of colleagues and the great and the good.

I am so glad the wait is over and I can now just enjoy owning this watch for the rest of my life.

The AD experience was incredible as always, I have bought four watches and each one from the same person who I first met back in 2016 when I purchased an Omega.

I always aimed to get a sub before I turned 30 and I'm pleased to see I managed it at 28. A happy and joyous moment and a day ill never forget!

Had to wait until late fifties to get my first Rolex but it was well worth the wait.

Congratulations on the Submariner Date, the Sub is an awesome watch. The AD looked after you very well which is always nice to see.

Enjoy your watch in the years ahead.
