I had no intentions of buying a Sub C.....
until my AD called my about 2 hours ago and I saw their one and only black Sub C in person. Yes, I bought it. Today is my wife and I's wedding anniversary so I don't have time to post pics but WOW is all I can say. Again, I had NO intention of buying another watch but the new Sub C really is an upgrade. I think I have been pretty vocal about not liking the cyclops but with the new maxi dial, the cyclops blends in and doesn't ruin the watch for me like I thought it would. Wow is all I can say.
If anyone is turned off by looking at the pictures of the new Sub C as I was, hold off on your opinion until you see it in person. Particularly the black one. Wow. |

Dan,
Three years? That is fantastic. May you continue to enjoy your wife, and your watch. My Black Sub-c is in layaway... 10 week countdown in progress... I've decided to wait the 10 weeks until I see it in person... it'll make the day more memorable. Anyways... multi-congrats in a mega way. |

It'll grow on you, when, I first got into this hobby five or six years ago I COULDN'T STAND the cyclops, within two years I learned to accept and appreciate it. (and within 30-40 more years my eyes will begin to appreciate it)
