Classic and Beautiful my Sub C

I received my first new Rolex today, a Sub C new with all the plastics still on. I bought this from a trust TRF forum member and I couldn't be happier. The only thing I wish is that the case were a little bigger. And I can't believe this clasp so cool. I am currently happy :)

Congratulations and don't worry about the case, if you still find it small after a couple of weeks you can always get an SD or DSSD as well!

If it suits you, try on a Deepsea at an AD and see how you feel about it.

Nice choice.

Do you always wear it so far over your wrist?

Looks uncomfortable.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Do you mean because it looks tight in the photo? I have been messing with the clasp to set it to the best point. Thanks for the help.

Congratulations! Your Sub C suits your wrist and in my opinion is the right fit. I got mine on Friday and I'm loving it. Best decision I made all week.
