Hi Bob :-)

I'm sure an 15300 could be found well below your budget which belonged to fellow Purist however I do agree if you were to dive with it beyond 50m then it is an issue, about the dings, well I can tell you frome experience its pretty hard to do that unless you slam it into a door frame, or hit your car window really hard, so slam your hand against the table (done all those things LooL )

I used to think the same way about the Rolex Sub, its too common and all that but I can assure you it is not, chances of seeing it in the wild might be higher but it is not common, if you compare the number of Rolex owners with the global population (do even 75 million people every day wear a Rolex on a daily basis globally? i.e. 1% of the world's population). If that isn't rare enough then you can get a Vintage (1960s) Sub 5513 with a Gilt dial and then you have a very cool and rare piece relatively speaking.

In todays world if something is not available locally you can have it shipped in right?
