Congrats!! I remember getting mine, the AD had 1 employee, (the owner) he sized it for me, as I stood at his showcase, put it on, the box etc. went in a shopping bag, and I was on the subway back to work. The best lunch hour I can remember. July 1985.

Congrats! Cool they threw in a watch winder too. I feel like in the current market they don't have to give any gifts at all haha!

I was planning on getting one eventually, so that was a real treat.

Anyway, this is my Submariner. There are many like it, but this one is MINE!





Perfect for Oktoberfest this afternoon

Congratulations!!!

Looks great on your wrist and OMG that pitcher oppsss mean mug of beer looks delicious

Thanks everyone!!

Yea I turned out pretty lucky that 40mm fits me so well. Seems like the perfect size

It's my yearly Oktoberfest tradition, half black lager, half pumpkin beer. They call it the 'black-o-lantern'

Of course it's huge. It's one of the most iconic sports watches on the planet.

I remember buying my first sub. My hands were shaking so bad I could barely get it out of the box. Congrats!
