Just picked up this F serial 16610. Very pleased with this watch and great to have a Sub again…my first “nice” watch was a 16613 bluesy which I wore for about 10 years. I decided to flip it for a Subc and i never quite bonded with it. After trading the SubC and going through 2 more watches (explorer, DJ41) I’m finally back to a Sub. Maybe I’ll hang on to this one for a while!

16610 from 2004 (if I recall). My gateway drug to collecting. I lasted until 2015 before taking the next plunge (Speedy Pro).

Was having a hard time adjusting to the 5 digit bracelet…the large clasp just felt too bulky under my wrist. So spent sometime this afternoon trying some strap options. Going with the Zuludiver …reallly comfortable and looks pretty good. Also wanted something I could get wet so leather’s out of the question….here’s a pic

If you are talking about the large flip-lock clasp on a 93150 bracelet, I also find it awkward on my wrist. It may be sacrilege, but I have been known to wear a vintage Sub on a 78360, which is basically the same oyster bracelet with an ordinary clasp.

Yes, the flip lock. I don’t recall having the same problem with my SubC (which I sold sometime ago), but I know they’re not even in the same ballpark in terms of quality. Not sure why it would be sacrilege as you say, but it sounds like you e found an elegant solution. Kind of liking the 16610 on the strap for now. But I may look into getting a different bracelet at some point (if I can stomach the high cost!)

Ahh, yes. Your post farming makes much more sense now.

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt since he joined in 2019 and his posts don't have that same tone as a farmer.

Typically I would agree. But, as discussed in another thread, he has raised some red flags

I just found that other thread. Disregard anything I said in the past few minutes (and give me another post) 😉
