College grad gift for son...pics inside
I'd asked here what everyone thought, new or hand one down:
http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=276800 Decided to go bnib for my sons college graduation gift. Today was the day, I think he really likes it. Been smiling for hours. Sorry about the ipad quality pics. And of course the wrist shot. His new and my red sub, side by side.
