Incoming! New to me 5 digit sub!

Some of you know I have been going back and forth on this for a bit, but found a perfect example of this reference and had to grab it!

Congrats. Amazing watch. In the market for a TT sub. I find the blue on the 5 digit such as yours to be much more rich in color. It’s mesmerizing.

Enjoy! Hard to beat the 5 digit Sunburst dial in the light.

The bluesy is and always will be my favorite two tone watch. Congrats on the new acquisition.

Blue never looked as good on a Rolex as it did on the five digit LB.
Congrats.
