BIGBOSS: Very nice GMT! What year is it? That particular GMT might be how I make my first foray into the world of vintage/older Rolexes.

Im pretty sure its pre '98, but it looks brand new and wears great. The only difference between it and my Sub is the weight and chunkiness really. I would love to have a James Cameron Deepsea but its HEAVY. I tried on the all black one when I was shopping for my Sub and I wasn't sure if I could wear something that heavy every day.

I honestly HATE jubilee bracelets though, I think they look like they're made for grandpas for some reason 

I love the cyclops though, I wouldn't have it any other way.

what did you expect with a white strap? I don't think it looks that bad though. Have you considered perlon?

Someone put a jubilee bracelet on their BLNR. Pretty cool, IMO...

I like the Perlon but I don't want to get rid of the factory Rolex clasp, I think that the rubber b has the edge in that regard. I'll probably order a Navy rubber b for the Daytona and an all black with blue stripe for the GMT.

Doesnt wear as big as my ceramic Sub but Im a sucker for dat Bred color way.

Would love for this to come with a ceramic bezel, in fact I thought the white gold version had that until I was at the AD and all they had was the pepsi. Luckily I passed as I found out the same evening we're expecting out first child and need to focus on other things than buying another watch.

This is exactly what ruined me

 

[flyknitlvr]

This is exactly why I refuse to have children... too selfish

Congrats though!

 

[illphillip]

Yo...but at least you're real about it. I got homies the same way. And respect it.

Some people have the kids....then realize they're too selfish. That **** is all bad.

 

[bigboss]

I feel the same way 

How old are y'all though? Im about be 26 so Im in no rush for babies.

 

[lazyj10]

I was ready for a kid when I was done being selfish. That was when I was 32

 

[206to813]

I had my first when i was almost 26... was no where near ready but got ready in a hurry. 31 now with 2 kiddos, 2nd one was planned, and now im snipped

Snipped ? You love going raw that much.

You never know you might end up with a new chick ten years from now

 

[206to813]

I dont care , if that happens, im done with kids, and by then ill be too old to go thru it again from scratcg

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

Your going to regret it homie, life isn't over when you turn 40

 

[filthyjiujitsu]

Worst case scenario. Vasectomy reversal isnt a difficult procedure.

Some of the fellas I know who discuss snipping, say they want to store some seeds at the sperm bank before snipping. Juuuuuuuust in case.

Smart way of going about it.

 

[206to813]

I have 2 kids, i dont want more...if my marriage fails, i wont want any more kids and it my marriage fails, which i dont see happening, ill be in my 40s or 50s and damn sure wont want kids.
Lets get back on topic

Lets get back on topic

I just bought a two tone Submariner Rolex last night , I'll try to post pictures tomorrow

 

[hadowajp]

Thanks, I'm 31 now and even though I never really planned on having any children I'm good with it. I'm just lucky it wasn't with some random. I tried to get snipped when I was 23 but the doctors said no. I'll still end up with a few more time pieces just can't go impulse buying them anymore.

That is absolutely beautiful.

 

[frank mucus]

Sandwich dial is one of the best.

 

[flyknitlvr]

Panerai really needs to give us a 40mm offering

 

[bigboss]

Hows it keeping time? Mine wasn't very good.

 

[206to813]

Keeps time great, no issues

And yeah frank mucus i definitely wanted a sandwich dial
