Mine was a Bi metal (TT) Datejust with the ubiquitous champagne dial, jubilee bracelet, and plastic? glass, circa mid 80’s.

brandrea · 3 August 2018, 09:05 PM

A 16660. Still kicking myself for selling that one

RHIII · 3 August 2018, 09:26 PM

Got my first 1990-91 - and it was a 14060.

To this day still my favorite Submariner.

Submariner no date, 5513 maxi dial, in 1977.

Jace · 3 August 2018, 09:54 PM

Two tone date just. 1993. I should have stopped there.

My wife got this one new for me as a gift when I finished residency in 1988. I still have it. This is a recent picture. It’s unpolished.

A 1675 GMT Pepsi used around 1986. Paid 700 or 800 dollars. There were 6273 and 6265 that we’re less and the dealer said they would make a good deal on those Bec they wanted to move them!!

Bought it a few weeks after proposing to my now wife. Figured I spent so much on the ring I may as well get something for myself too.
I still need to get it engraved. I’ll have it forever

Finslayer83 · 3 August 2018, 11:02 PM

114060 as I thought it was stupid to pay similar prices for a 14060M.

Then realized I still looked at 14060M's.

So I made the trade.

1999 (23 years old) , 36mm SS Datejust, oyster bracelet, smooth bezel, rhodium roman dial. Managing retail stores and grinding it out to earn bonuses to accomplish the goal of purchasing it!

jms_w · 3 August 2018, 11:51 PM

In ‘09 I bought my 16613 and then my 116710 a few months later.

Exactly... After that episode, I totally stopped wearing them in rich neighborhoods, considered by myself, risky places here in SP where specialized Rolex gangs can spot one easily and "tag" you.

Lame....

scarab1st · 4 August 2018, 02:01 AM

Daytona 116500 white dial, April 2017. My boss saw me browsing through some Tag and Sub at chrono24. He told me to go straight for the one I really want instead of inching my way to it with models I just settled for. I said ok. He helped me find one and I had my Daytona the following day.

hai.tranhr · 4 August 2018, 02:16 AM

Mine is DJ2 41, smooth bezel and white dial. I bought it in local AD in May 2018z

I bought my 116610 with money from the sale of an ATV I owned for 10 years, and a diamond I found in 2013. I have three main watches, and while all are special for their own reasons, the Sub is my favorite to wear most days by far.
