Got the call 126610LV - Green Sub

Was on waiting list for Daytona forever. Tried on my friend's Sub and decided it wore so much lighter than my SD43. So I switched my name on list to "Starbucks"...sorry to those that dislike nicknames. After a bit over a month at local AD, I got the call. I like that the green MK2 bezel looks light and dark. I guess wait times are coming down.

I was concerned with the color change of the bezel; however, it pops (as my daughter says) and looks fantastic! Congratulations.

Thanks to all for the well wishes. I agree with your daughter...thr green really pops and looks very different than my black bezel on matte black SD43. At 41mm, doesn't feel small (all my watches are 43 to 49mm). But it is noticeably lighter than SD43

Huge! Congrats. I just got one too. I did have the MK1 and sold it to my SA and love the newer color better.

Congrats! Does the green bezel change that much in light? Would you consider it similar to a BLNR in the sun vs a dimly lit restaurant?

thanks again to all for the well wishes. I got at my local AD...a bit of luck. I think these AD's try to sell to local buyers. My Daytona wait list for years really helped me I think. My brother in law has the BLNR, and I think the colors do change on both watches depending on lighting. The sun light really lightens the colors. thanks again all

Congrats! Looks incredible. I have an SD43 & I’m on the list for that one too. One month is fast, but if you were on the list for a Daytona, you must have a solid spend history.
