I've been used to a 45.5 planet ocean so right now the Sub feels pretty small however hopefully soon it'll feel completely normal. I hope!

Awesome.
Subc rocks and so does that Omega. That's a winning pair any day making it difficult deciding which to wear, nice problem to have.
Enjoy in health.

Congrats! I thought the PO8500 might cure my itch, but I held off and I'm saving for the SubC. Only problem now is NOT buying something in the next few weeks until I can get myself another Sub.

Congrats, I had a 44mm Breitling and an AP when I got mine and the subc did wear smaller but you soon get used to it and it certainly isn't small at around a 42mm feel.

Looks great on you. I got the same watch (my first Rolex as well) a couple months ago. After about 2 weeks it became really comfortable - I still love mine like it's new.
