New to me 16610

Stopped by an AD while out of town this week and found a nice pre owned Sub. Came with box, papers, recent service and a 2 year warranty. I thought it looked great for being a 2005 production.

This should hold me over while I wait for my BLNR.

Best and most accomplished sub ever. Rolex will revert back to this design soon. When they do, these legacy pieces will skyrocket in value.

Very nice! Here's mine.



Can you give me more shots of your Cylops window? I just wanna take a closer look at that magnification.
