Vintage 1969 Rolex Submariner

[Nicko]

For those of you who can get enough of these babies; this is probably my 10th and last Sub. Beautiful matching dial and hands. It's a 2.4 mil, one of the first feet first models, all original except for the plexi of course and the bracelet. I bought it from one of the best traders around, Jacek. I haven't really had much time to get proper pics taken. But I'll tease you with this one.

Looks amazing. I've been lusting after one for quite some time.

I can see why you traded for it. I'm a sucker for matching lume on the hour plots and hands. And the crown guards look nice and thick too. I know there were bumps along the way, but congrats on landing a nice one in the end.

Thanks mate, "bumps" is an understatement, every one I owned had something wrong and I couldn't bare to wear it. I sold, saved and waited for this one. I couldn't be happier with it.

In this case, Ralph might be wrong. It was a hell of a journey, but the destination is pretty sweet too!
