Birthyear Sub. The search is off!

I've been looking for the right 16800 from 1983 and as of this friday the search is over. Extremely happy with this one - I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Thanks for all the nice comments, guys. I'm really enjoying it! Damn, I've missed a matte dial Sub for far too long.

Catching the last daylight.
