Got a 2007 SS Submariner

Hello Everybody,

My name is Kevin, I recently purchased a SS Submariner a few days ago . I had always wanted one since I was just a kid. I didn't want to join this forum till I officially owned one. I researched very hard and found that the SS Sub was truely the perfect watch for me. The first thing I have to say about this watch is that it's pure quality and absolutely tough . Here are some pics of her (I know, I know.. she looks like every other broad.. but this ones special :))






Apologies, they aren't the best of quality (pics taken with a nokia n95 5MP) I'll have better detailed pictures up later. I hope to meet alot of Rolex fanatics and just really straight out fine people

Congratulations on the DateSub - you have a watch that will last a lifetime. Looks like you found a nice clean Z model - no RBR (Rolex Branded Rehaut) which is my favoured look also.

Enjoy it and wear it in health and safety.

Hi congratulations I hope.

Can I ask where you got your Sub ?
I hope it was at an AD. Tell me what you think guys isn't that a maxi dial.

Congradulations, Kevin, on the classic and possibly most popular Rolex in the lineup! A real beauty that can be worn anywhere and on any occasion.

No, its not a maxi-dial. She just has nice, full, round, uh, indicies! So enjoy it in good health!
