I went, I saw, I bought!

A new green Sub.


My good friends, Leila and Mehrdad, from the Rolex AD in South coast Plaza called and said the new green Sub was in and I should come and take a look. I was hooked!


The very cool Glide-Lock bracelet.


The green dial has a curious property of changing color from metallic green to nearly black depending on the intensity of the light and the light's source.


All in all, a VERY cool watch!

Thanks for everyone's kind wishes. Actually, on the warranty card the watch is referred to as an "OV." Kinda interesting.

Thanks for the info, wonder what the "O" means? The L was for Lunette.

Eric,
Is your card the same as this one? It states 116610V?

Congrats on the new "Hulk"!! Man, new SS Sub and OV Sub in one day. It's overwhelming!

Btw, to the OP, you'd get more hits if you renamed this thread "The Hulk is in the house!" but maybe you like being low-key, which is also cool.

Maybe they keep them in the safe and the folks on the call list have to ask for them? I assume for the time being, demand will far exceed supply.
