freddy333 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Its a beauty Dave - New from an AD, second hand purchase? Do tell Ditto.
thealphabeta Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Posted April 6, 2009 It is brand spanking new yes. Its from an AD also. Its true, such a timeless appeal that really works with anything. Im finding it strange to wear after my Steinhart 47mm or 177H, feels tiny.
sconehead Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Good choice, I was luckily in the same boat recently and was split as whether to go for a new or vintage (when exactly are they considered vintage anyway?) I eventually decided on a 168000 transitional, original dial, hands, bracelet and insert. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I'm currently enjoying mine... Here's some pics, not as well taken as yours though...
thealphabeta Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Posted April 6, 2009 Good shout mate. Yeah its nice to have a real deal huh! One you can keep forever and pass down to kids etc...
jmarin.72 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Very beautiful watch Dave.Wear it well and in good health mate. There is no match to a gen Sub. Cheers John

freddy333 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 when exactly are they considered vintage anyway? Generally, if the crystal is Plexiglas, it is vintage.
thealphabeta Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Posted April 6, 2009 Lazarini - nice watch . Great pictures too
lazarini Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Lazarini - nice watch . Great pictures too well thank you kind sir Laz
Stephane Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 This watch has something special .... I waited for my 47th birthday to get a gen but it would be the last one I would sell... I really share your joy geting it on your wrist. How about posting ours as Laz started ? Ok, I'll follow Laz
Ronin Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Most excellent. Wear it well. Interesting, from the picture, the pearl looks concave...???
thealphabeta Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Posted April 6, 2009 I think thats probably just the lighting, its not.
