Rolex xmas exchange

Hi all,

So I had a thread going asking you guys if I should exchange my Milgauss GV for the Subamariner 116610LV ALL Green Ceramic.

Well I have made a decision. The entire watch (Milgauss) is pretty much just pollished with the exception of the bracelet which is a combination of brushed & pollished. Which will scratch alot more than the SubC.The Submariner C Green is all brushed with the exception of the PEL's. Plus I wanted the the SubC all green to start off with, but I felt it wouldn't go with anything. And I am having a problem with the Milgauss as well. So I am going to do it. I should have gone with my gut to start off with. So all good to go!

- I will be exchanging the Milgauss for the SubC 116610LV ALL GREEN.

What do you guys think about that???

Yep Sounds like I will be going for that one. I will have to wait a few to get it. SubC LV's all green are a little rare. So hopefully soon here in the next couple of weeks!

I can't deal with no date function anyway so for me it would have been an easy decision!

So wait, was this Rolex a gift to you?

If so, I'd talk to the giftor first. If you bought it for yourself, then go ahead, take it back and get what you love!

Kind of, and kind of not... A family member gave me money to buy a watch of my choice and I added in some of my own money as well. So it is totally appropriate.

Thanks for watching out though...

Oh you bet there will be one!!! Oh yeah!

The dealer had to have it shipped from another location out of state that they own. Should be in town within the week or so.

Big time can't wait... Christmas morning all over again!!!

I really like the SubC 116613 Blue TT. It is a really nice as well. But that SubC Green is just something I can't resist.

Every day I wait I want it even more and more. It needs to come in fast so I don't go crazy and sycho.

You'll love the Subc LV....the dial changes color with the lighting from bright green in direct light to black in dark....never get tired....I was looking at a Milgauss LV, but thought the Submariner was the superior watch in all aspects....took the LV back. Good Luck & Cheers
