Funny I went through the same path as you very recently, I was never a big Rolex fan, and I'm not a diver, but liked the look and history of the Submariner. I considered the plain no date one (see a previous post a little while ago), which I didn't like when I tried it, didn't really like the Kermit either when i first looked at it, then fell for it, bought a 2nd hand, but as new one, and now love it. It does look much better in real life that under artificial light at an AD, especially on a cloudy day, the green looks much darker and awesome.

Well done, Cookies.
Huge congrats! I fear the Green Sub ( 16 610 LV ) is the last new Sub... Please post more pics! Best, Nicolas
Was worth the wait, no?
These are the best watches...The Watches we're waiting for. Aaaah, sorry, you spoke about Nuns? Best, Nicolas
Sinful to touch
And I thought I would never touch a rolex. I'll take some pics of the sub in my marine tank later.

exactly my sentiments
i won't ever wear a rolex in the other range, like the GMT or Explorers or Datejusts. Really enjoying my kermit now. Nice solid bracelet and very comfortable.
Well done, cookies.
...and excellent taste in masks, too. (That is an Atomics Frameless? Best mask ever. I have a clear and a black version, just got an OMS black skirt with separate lenses for night dives..not sure it'll measure up) This message has been edited by BDLJ on 2...
ah, it's acquired taste
Thanks for recognising the mask. I left it there on purpose. This mask is excellent for mask clearing and very peripheral in vision. Light and easy to store as well. I can't wait to use it soon! I'm glad you share the same passion and taste. Night dives a...
Got plans..
...for a nightdive off Mornington this Saturday. Just got a DiveRite700 torch and want to try out the umbilical with my gear (also changed from an Aluminium to a SS backplate, so trying out some weighting options...no more weightbelt) as well as the less-...
real soon
I gotta find a shark next time i go. I do diving around Singapore, and SE asia is a heaven for diving, with Tioman Island and Perhantian Island. Funny thing is I never saw a shark when diving, only 1 white tip juvenile while snorkeling. I look forward to ...
