Hi all,
it's a pleasure for me to show you here my last watch with the crown on it ...

I have to admit, I never thought that this watch would have been part of my collection, I always liked it when I was young but I never considered to buy it.

All changed this summer when I saw the post by esm (yes Eric, it's all your fault

) with its beautiful pics ... so I decided to start saving money, I sold my Omega PO and few months later here it is !!!

I'm sorry for my terrible pics (taken by mobile phone), I know such a beauty deserves definitely better pics ...

So, HIS MAJESTY :"THE SUBC" !!!

Now the question for you is: do you believe that the (long) clasp is well centered on my wrist ?

Please let me know if for you the clasp sits fine on the center of my wrist or I have to move a 1/2 link form the "12" side of the bracelet to the "6" side ...

And now, I know, I have to remove all the plastic stickers ...

Final pic goes to my very very helpful toolkit I used to remove the links: I paid it 1,99 € and it works perfect (really the best screwdriver I've ever managed to remove screw on my watches ...)

Thanks again for all your great reviews and posts here that helped me in deciding to buy this wonderful watch !

Ciao

Looks good, and i take it the length of the clasp is that long to house the Glidelock system. Nice watch.

Good for you.......... It's a beauty.......

esm · 23 November 2010, 09:27 AM

Hi Engi,
The Sub-C looks great on you and I truly think that you have made the right choice. I'm happy to take the blame for it mate.

As for it being "the last crown".... I too agree that it won't likely to happen as we all aware of this addiction (in a good way!)

Great to see you enjoy it - hope you aren't in too much trouble with mrs Engi with your latest Crown.

Enjoy and look forward to see more pix!

Engi...

Welcome to the club. Doesn't it feel superb on the wrist? I am still amazed after only a couple weeks... just how well this watch fits.

Enjoy to the fullest my friend... and yes, the clasp looks very well centered.

Ciao!

Why don't you take the plastic off and enjoy the feel of cold steel against your flesh..................
