His post not only celebrates a new addition but also offers initial impressions and promises a deeper dive into its features, providing valuable first-hand insights for potential owners and enthusiasts alike.

Got a surprise text at lunch to say my new Submariner was in....despite a busy evening (which I also won my golf round so luck was on my side today smile ) I managed to pick her up.
Here are a couple of pics of my new toy which I'm VERY happy with smile
I'll get some better pics this week but I couldn't resist getting a couple of quick pics to show you all....

My usual dealer wasn't there today so he had left strict instructions that nobody but me touch it and to put a bottle of my usual champagne in the bag smile

More and better pics to come soon.

Yours,

Andy.

You are on a roll. Literal birthday or fictive. If so happy birthday from a fellow Leo. Bill

many years ago..!! I'm only missing the Daytona but it doesn't really appeal for some unknown reason. This new one is so vastly different to the GMT it was easy to justify and completes (!) my classics collection...all the usual bases covered but all a little different at the same time. Thanks my friend, Andy PS - I must confess the birthday is Oct but I have to justify it somehow..!! Plus this arrived early as I was expecting it around Sept/Oct :)

but this was for my birthday but has arrived early, it was due to arrive Sept/Oct, and we all need any excuse to justify our toys :) Very pleased and the bracelet and glidelock clasp is a thing of beauty...I'll get some pics of that soon. Yours, Andy.
