Icon10 My Rolex Submariner 16610

I have to say I now have my dream watch. While I own Omega PO, Omega Speedmaster Pro Moon Watch and IWC Spitfire, this Rolex 16610 is truly a dream come true, used Z series from Bob's Watches.

I would love to hear how it compares to the PO, I have the PO and think it really sparked a desire for a 16610LV. By the way I love the PO.

PO was my first luxury watch so I have a special affinity to it. When I saw it at the AD, I was truly inspired by it (I actually didn't notice it in Quantum of Solace). I think the PO is elegant and practical, while not as iconic as the Sub. The only Omega watch I consider as iconic as the Sub would be the Speedmaster Pro.
