- This video is long overdue, sorry for the delay! Life gets very busy sometimes, and editing unfortunately was put on the back burner. But on the bright side, I have a lot of content to work on.
At the time of filming this was my latest acquisition. I took this gem on my summer vacation to celebrate our anniversary. So this video sums up the buying, and wearing experience that followed. I hope you enjoy the shots.

Since I’m from Greece plus I’ve bought same model 5 days ago (in the idea is 70th anniversary and will be highly collectible) your video gets 1000x thumbs up🎉
I don’t see 1000k thumbs up! 😆 haha! But this is my fav comment so far. My favorite vacation also, can’t wait to go back.
@@ChristopherNegroni 😂 I’m glad you liked it . I also have amazing memories from Santorini! Next time you go there you need to go and eat in 1800 restaurant in OIA.
@@dinamiena6186 I just bookmarked it 😎 I will 100% do that next time. 🙏🏻
Be very gentle with this watch. After a month of buying I was in keparsia and noticed my lume pip fell off. Under the loupe I saw a small dent in the ceramic bezel, didn't even see any dings or scratch close to it so I don't even know where I banged it.
@@Jsmashfq interesting 🤔 I would bet you definitely banged it at some point. Unfortunate.
Negroni honestly has some of the best videography in watch fam!!!
Gringa quit lying! I watch your videos 😅 . Thank you 🙏🏻
Are you kidding? This channel is horrible. Only 3 K subs because it is horrible. And those tattoos look ridiculous.
Bro I’ve been bringing my 4 year old son into the ad the last few months waiting on this one. Literally picked it up this week. It is such a special piece to have. Good timing with the video!
That’s awesome. Glad to hear similar experiences. Wear it in good health!
Congrats and welcome back! The watch is beautiful and great video as always!
This is the most entertaining watch review I’ve seen since James Stacey’s famous Tudor GMT review for Hodinkee. Your video is nicely put together and just fun to watch. I got this watch from a local AD two weeks ago. I’ve been on the list for “a” submariner for years, and since I didn’t specify which type of submariner, I got the call because I was next on the list when this came in. My first ever Rolex, and it’s a beauty, and your video makes me appreciate just how special it is.
What a compliment 😅 I know exactly what review you’re referring to, thank you very much. Congrats btw 🐸
Criminal that you only have ~3k subs. Great camera work and content. Congrats on the new piece!
Slowly but surely 😎 it’s hard in such a small niche. Thank you 🙏🏻
Congratulations on your new watch 🍾🥂. I’ve been waiting for this watch for 2yrs now from an AD managed to pick up another model from them in the meantime. I’ve started to give up on popping in visiting the AD but this video has just motivated me 👍
That’s what they want, no such thing as giving up.
Good to have you back Chris - loved the beautifully shot video - Greece such a stunning Country and a great choice of watch.
Cheers Kam (London)
Had a blast there. Thank you 🙏🏻
I thought I wanted/needed a 114060 no date sub in my collection to appreciate and adore like you do your green sub, but after watching this video I am reminded I already have that.
I purchased my first luxury watch in 2018. It is the non wave seamaster 300m co axial black dial. It has been on my wrist for the most important moments of my life including proposing to my fiancé, and then again at our wedding in the summer, On various holidays and the honeymoon! It is my perfect companion for me and this video helped me remember that.
Last year I purchased a DJ41 azzuro blue which is stunning but I would sell that in a heart heart over my trusty SMPC
I had a similar experience with my 10 year old daughter and the two toned bluesy submariner. I was considering the full gold bluesy, but my daughter loved the two tone. She went with me to the AD to request it and several months later to pick it up. I wear it on vacations so she also has memories with the watch. I plan to give it to her one day.
Great video and thanks for sharing.
That’s beautiful 👌🏼 plus she saved you quite a bit of change 😉
Mr Negroni thanks for an epic video about your new sub. Bloody loved it!
Myself and my family have also built something similar as you and your daughter. We always make visiting the AD a special day, catching up with our AD contact, drinking the champagne, talking about life and obviously watches. Then we always go to the same restaurant after picking up our latest Rolex acquisition to celebrate in style.
From one Negroni lover to another, thanks for always delivering on epic content.
Sound Avery familiar to how we like to experience watches and life. It can be a fun hobby. Thank you!
Amazing video. I too take my daughter with me on all my AD trips. She's always game to charm the crew. Picked up my MK2 Sub with her as well. Enjoy man, it's a stunning watch. I completely agree with everything you said, the green tone on this watch is much nicer than those of the past. Keep killing it.
Thanks for watching! Great that we have parallel stories 😎 🐸
Love how you can enjoy this hobby with your daughter!
I feel you bro! I cannot take this watch off!
🐸🐸🐸
Glad you're back brother! Wonderful video.🙌
Thank you 😊
Congrats! I have worn a 11610LV every day for 15 years. This new MK2 is looking good! That lime green 😍
Definitely reminds me of the original Kermit. I think it’s a nice nod to your watch. Has your bezel gotten lighter? I love how those age a little
Happy Anniversary big guy! Obviously your Rolex looks pretty great out in the water. But your wife was sporting a couple of watches that I’d like to see better up close.
Congratulations on your new Rolex, it’s a beauty for sure 😊 thats so cool that you are already making great memories and I am sure will see many more memories and mile stones reached.
That’s what it’s all about CWM ✌🏼
This was my wedding watch and for 1 year my daily… sold it for no reason as my collection was growing… and happy got a 2nd time from my AD and I will definitely keep it. Sometimes you realize the value of a watch, after it isn‘t any longer there.
Good lesson to learn. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone
I just got the call from my AD for my Batman last week and I waited three years for it also
Congrats 🎈🎊🍾 a watch for life
You must really really, really love that watch making such a beautiful video around it 😊 soon this will be my next daily watch ! It is perfect.
It’s a great watch 🐸
got it as an early birthday (next year) gift! lots of these pumping out of ADs past couple or months. it has been on my wrist since late September. congrats
Nice 👌🏼. Thank you
Very inspiring-thanks for sharing- every watches has its own story to tell❤ I just got one today and I’m excited to have it delivered tomorrow❤️
Congratulations! 🐸 welcome to the club
Always enjoy your videos, bro. Great job!
Much appreciated 🙏🏻
Great vid as always! Really captured the feeling of a watch like this.
I try 🙂 thank you!
I love watching this review, watched it at least three times now! This is the watch I’m gunning for next. Got my deep sea and batgirl. This beaut will be next! Thanks again for the review, you got a new fan in me. Keep up the great work!
That’s awesome. Hopefully you get the call this year 😎 thanks for watching always happy to have new viewers
I prefer the darker green on the mk 1 or the sprite. It looks more sophisticated in my opinion.
To each their own 👍🏼 I’m not very sophisticated, I like the bright green 😎
I have both , sold mk1… mk2 is far handsome
MK1 and Sprite are my favorites.
@@OmarAlohaDude I have
@@OmarAlohaDude nice one two punch
Congratulations on a stunning watch, love the video so well done dude!
I appreciate that 🙏🏻
Awesome video. What an amazing watch. I just got the call for this watch from my AD, can’t wait to collect it later this week. I have a Batman but get the feeling I’m going to be wearing this as my daily watch. Keep up the great videos!!
It makes for a perfect daily 👌🏼 congratulations! 🐸
Unexpectedly was able to pick this up from my AD yesterday, and loving it so far. Can’t wait to take it into the water!
Congratulations 🍾
Another banger Negroni!!! Starbucks sub is a killer…Keep ‘em coming!
Thanks Boston 😎
I dont like the green bezel but I do love the effort put into this video and these b roll shots. You killed it.
I appreciate it 🤘🏼
About time I always check to see if u have a new video!✅✅✅🔥
Congrats bro! Thanks for sharing!
I have the exact same MK2 and love it as you do. If there is anything better than a Sub it is Sub LV.
This is by far the best watch video I’ve seen please do more. 🔥
Thank you! 🙏🏻
congratulations on a stunning watch that green really pops , love my 124060 no date the size fit is perfectiom imo and a watch which was my grail and never thought id own ..enjoy in good health and making many great memories with it
Thank you sir 🙏🏻
The Vibe of your video is just beautiful! Could not imagine a better review!!!
Thank you very much! 🙏🏻
Enjoyed the Video, very nice photography and the Greek Islands are a perfect backdrop to show off the LV. Thanks for the vid.
Thank you for watching!
I watched this video without seeing a view/subscriber count. Amazed when I checked at the end to see you didn't already have 250K+ subscribers! Great video.
Help you me get there! 1 sub at a time. Thank you!
That's an amazing story connected to an amazing watch, great video!
LFG Negroni! Great video and congrats on the piece man. Looking forward to the 🐼 video
I’m working on it 😅
Your channel deserves more subscribers! Keep it up man
It’s haaaard 😅 thanks 🙏🏻
This friday i'm getting mine. Thanks for this review. Perfect👍🏻
No problemo. Congrats 😁
Congrats! We need a little YT Short comparing this LV with the Sea-Dweller 116600.
Noted!
The case design on the SD4K 116600 is perfection … short and elegant lugs
Great video brother and congratulations for the whole family . I’m promised that watch on January for my 40th birthday but who knows because my list is BIG, hey Chris can you make a video how to make a good Negroni, to be honest I have never had one 😢, great content my friend
Well I hope your AD comes through for you. Keep them accountable. And as far as the negroni video, I made one already! It was an episode of “watch Chris drink” something I used to do on the channel.
Check out the episode here - th-cam.com/video/fhL2tAl6ryw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Qkq-4iFiT0y34puR
I have this and a BLRO GMT, great watch, the green bezel and black dial brings such great balance to the watch and quite versatile.
Agreed. Great 2 piece combo
Solid piece. Nice with the green bezel. My similar one - among modern ones - is the Omega swords hands - titanium or steel, blue or black. Very same idea as the modern Sub. Neither the Sub or SMP is a collection piece (except if 50 years old) but definitely top-level go-to pieces.
Could be a collection piece 🤷🏼♂️ who knows. Important thing is you like the watch and you wear it. Thats why I bought it
Amazing timeless piece, happy for you… that will be my watch one day ❤
Good luck! 🐸
The best review of the MK2 on TH-cam. Really gives me the chance to see the watch properly in all lighting conditions. I'm in a serious dilemma between this and the GMT Batgirl for my first Rolex. Can never seem to finally decide. What is your opinion on those two?
All depends on what you’re looking for out of this watch. I’ll assume you don’t care that one is a GMT movement with a date vs a three hand with a date, because if you preferred one movement over the other, I’d say go with that. But orherwise, the GMT is easier to wear daily, it’s actually a slimmer watch, smaller clasp. The sub is no nonsense, glidelock is great if your wrist swells and shrinks a lot (hotter climates). So really think about what you want this watch for. I can’t decide for you. I have both 😅. Thank you btw
@@ChristopherNegroni Thank you so much for the quick reply. I'd love to have both of course, maybe some day. Also, I like the idea of GMT movement, but you're right, since it's my first, the most important thing for me this time around is design, character and versatility. If I could see them in person it would be easier to decide I'm sure, but my AD doesn't have them so I have to kind of decide based on photos and wait around 3 years for each (if neither of them gets discontinued).
Awesome video man ! And great watch of course !
Thank you!
How do you only have 4k subs?! Great video, the production is on another level. Nice watch as well! ❤
I don’t make enough content or upload consistently 😅 but thank you for the compliment. I appreciate you watching!
Love your videos so much! Your collection must be insane now. You have more than most ADs 😂 Have you ever mentioned your profession? Genuinely curious and slightly envious 🤪 AWESOME VIDEO 🔥
I’ve mentioned it before in a Q&A. Feel free to dm on IG. Appreciate the kind words.
@@ChristopherNegroni wats ur instagram account name
I will be buying this watch soon I already own the gmt sprite so will be perfect to add to the collection and also totally agreed the lighter green is way better then the old one !!!
Nice one, upvoted! ❤
im waiting on this exact watch. i will get the call within three monts from today. have been waiting for an aditional 2 months. i had the 40 mm no date sub as my very first real wacht but i sold it and regret that. currently wearing a 41mm rose gold DJ with jubilee. thinking of selling that one and getting a 36DJ in steel.
I like how you actually wear the watch, kudos
It’s my daily
I just got the call for this exact Sub today from my AD. Been on the list for about 9 months. Pretty stoked as it’s my first purchase from my AD
Congrats! 🐸 welcome to the club
Nice. Congratulations.
I found this video randomly and when I first saw the coffee being poured over the submariner I questioned it…but by the time I saw you drop the green bezel sub into the cocktail I was a fan 😂. I think I’ll drop my BB58 blue in a drink tomorrow just for fun as I wait for my AD to call me for my sub!
I have a video back in my archives for members only where I too submerged a bb58 blue in a drink 😆 what a coincidence
Your channel is moving mate. Congratulations
Still chugging along
Really cool video man 💯
I’m going to try my luck at a particular AD this Friday. Heard great things about the AD. Wish me luck!
Good luck! Be persistent. Don’t disappear afterwards
I have the Mk 1 bezel (my preference) and i love this watch. All the perfection of the regular submariner but with just enough splash of color to make it not boring
I agree, great pop of color
Thank you for this
BEAUTIFUL WATCH BRO GOOD FOR YOU 💯
Congratulations 🎉
Great video man!
Thanks Diego 😁
Great vid as always, Chris. The real world footage is what sets your vids ahead of most other youtubers. As far as the watch...as someone who owns an mk1 starbucks, I really wish they kept the 20mm bracelet while slimming down the lugs. 21 makes the whole watch look too big, especially on someone with under 7 inch wrists. That's my only complaint and why I wear my pepsi and batman more.
Lastly, just something to note...I moved the half link to the 6:00 side since I hate looking at the side of the clasp when my hand is on the steering wheel. I think it makes the watch look better from the wearer's perspective. Peace!
Thank you! I try not to make the same content as other TH-camrs, so that means a lot. I agree the new sub is a little big on most people, but if you had to pick a model besides the seadweller that should be a little oversized, wouldn’t it be the badass diving watch? In a way, it’s more of a tool watch because of the heft and size now. I agree with you in the half link, I’ve try just about every combination of links, I just personally can’t stand looking at a half link 😅
Keep up the great work man, new sub here!
Awesome! New sub! Thanks for joining.
I love this videos with similar titles. It's a Rolex Submariner no matter which color you choose, they're all certified dive watches and they're all good. Thank you and until next time...
Well said!
So good 🔥
Thanks Michaela 😁
What a beautiful watch for your daughter. She has earned it! 😊
It’s all in good fun 🙂
I'm sure some day she would love to wear it, I know I would!@@ChristopherNegroni
Great and funny video - thank you. May I ask you, how many links do you have on 12 o clock (I see 4 links at 6) and what is your wrist size? Thanks. Cheers.
That’s correct. About 7”
Got mine two weeks ago. I like this one better then the last 116610lv
Much more wearable 👌🏼
Sucha wholesome story. What a daddy daughter bonding and memories to carry forward
Makes this watch very special to me
Great vid 👍
I’ve got the same watch and I plan on going to Greece in June 2024 👍My wife and I are having our wedding celebration since we didn’t have a chance to celebrate due to the war in Ukraine. Looking forward to our time in Greece with the entire family and close friends. Looking forward to wearing my MK2. Great video.
Awesome! You’re really going to bond with it all year next year up until that exciting trip. Congratulations on the watch and the marriage. And thanks for watching
I love the Starbucks watch! Great video bro. I just got a DJ rhodium diamond dial and this watch will be my next definitely.
Congrats 😆 looks like you caught the bug, I’m sorry 😂
watched this review a few times stunning scenery and a grail watch..doesnt get any better
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
@@ChristopherNegroni great content mate and style to it 🙌
Hulk has entered the chat
badass camera work 💯nice watch
Thank you 🙏🏻
Great, great Video man!I've enjoy a lot. Best regards from my 124060. Abrazo.
I appreciate that! 🐸
Just tried this on yesterday at the AD. It looks really nice and the green goes well with everything
Wearing it today 👌🏼 love it 🐸
@@ChristopherNegroni wear it in good health brother! Love your videos by the way. the videography and style of your review is on a professional level.
@@invalidgamerid I really appreciate that. I’m still a novice, and just kind of make what I want. I’m happy people watch and enjoy my content.
Awesome video. A man and his watch. ‘Nuff said!

Great video. thanks

Thanks Tim G 😎
The best starbucks video I ever seen👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥂
Thank you 🙏🏻 🥃
Very nicely expressed. Falcon delivers!😉
😎😎😎 thank you brotha
Love ur video style. Keep it up bro.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I have both the 41 and 40 and I prefer the 41. I would love the green. Nice
What a lovely, sweet video...
Very nice watch. I’m currently waiting on this watch from the AD. I registered in March 2021 while picking up the Batgirl. I was in the AD last week to find they are still getting people this watch from the year 2020. So it’s been for me 2 years 8 months. I don’t believe it will be this year. It’s a frustrating game to have to play with the ADs. I have bought 3 models from them in the last 5 years. The AD must be getting seriously low numbers of this model.
Yes and no, they have to be selective about who the sell the desirable models too. Just remember, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
would NEVER have looked twice at this watch…. until now 🤦♂️❤️
Sorry 😅
This is the only watch which I would consider buying back right now. Though I had mk1. I’m either or.
Uh oh the thought has crept in 😆
Well done, live powerfully!
Live powerfully 🤔 I like that
Just picked one up. Feel like it’s the only watch I will need for the rest of my life. Curious if they will
Discontinue it now in 2024 and go back to the other shade of green
It’s wishful thinking, I don’t think they will discontinue it. But Rolex is very unpredictable. Congratulations 🍾 🐸
I passed on a no date waiting for one of these bad boys…may be a while but the green is just too amazing I need it and resale a lot higher than the no date doesn’t hurt just in case you need cash.
I prefer the Mk1 though
Makes sense. 👍🏼
Hey bro! I stumbled upon your channel and i am loving the content. Im on your pepsi video now. Im just curious, if you had to choose between either the pepsi or starbucks, which one of the two would you choose?
Im asking this because I myself am torn between the two.
Depends. Is it your first Rolex? What’s in the collection? How big is your wrist? Do you want a GMT complication? Do you like glidelock? Does the bigger clasp in the sub bother you? What I would choose may be different than what you would choose. Thanks for watching btw!
@@ChristopherNegroni Super appreciate you getting back to me! Its gonna be my first Rolex. My current everyday is a Tudor Pelagos 25500tn. I am more inclined towards the Pepsi but I am afraid it might be too flashy for me to wear everyday? And it being my first Rolex, I was hoping I could wear what i get everyday haha. What do you think?
@@Pankydinky depends where you live. What does your everyday look like? It’s louder than most Rolex, but I still find most don’t notice what you have. Be vigilant and smart about your surroundings and you should be fine
