My first Sub!

x3no · Mar 4, 2015

Hey guys, I bought my first ever Submariner 16610 on Monday. It's special because it is my birth-year 1989, L series. I can't stop staring at it, and although its not anything special to most others, I hope you still enjoy the pictures because I love it!

Congrats! Omega is my favorite brand, but my Sub is my favorite watch, if that makes any sense. Enjoy it!

Awesome- congrats! my first sub was (is) also a 16610!

Very nice! Someday I'll treat myself to a Batman. I really am an Omega guy but I have a Datejust my parents gave me when I graduated from university the year before you were born.......

Thanks, I got it from the great folks at watches24seven.com. Awesome, good luck in your hunt! The people I bought from were painless, and highly recommended. They could possibly source one for you too.

Love the watch!

Thanks, me too! I'm hoping the tritium on the dial follows next and starts to turn as well, so it will all look uniform. 😀

That's awesome- timepieces like that are the best, simply from the story behind them.

Hmm I don't think so, I'll have to check under magnification later.
