Congrats and welcome to the club! I always like when somebody just randomly hits up an AD and gets a piece right then and there…The way it should be…

Walk into an AD, ask if they have what you're looking for and get it...is this the way to do it???

Thanks everyone! I was not on a wait list but did have previous purchase history with this dealer on 3 other watches, it was totally random but couldn't pass up the opportunity

probably my favorite feature of the sub is the glidelock system. It has come in handy so many times for me

its just a different bracelet, just buy the bracelet separately
but if offered, i might double up and trade it for something in the future

No…It’s the same watch…Just spring for the bracelet separately if you want the change up…Use the funds that you’d spend on the Batman to buy another piece…

Speaking of Pateks.
Tried on the black Aquanat with the rubber strap. By far the most comfortable watch on my wrist. Might start saving up for that.

I've also tried on a steel 5167 and my impressions were they are cool for retail but not even close to being worth the ~$50k or whatever they are going for.
As far as plain steel watches on rubber go, the 4500V is the one IMO.

really wish they made the overseas is smaller sizes like the royal oak
they have one for laides but the dials orientations different, just put the damn seconds on the 6 o'clock or remove it altogether

Just copped this watch... Nothing crazy but simple and casual
