Newbie here :)

Hi everyone!

This looks like a great forum. I am based in uk and I love many watch brands but as you can see I only own 2 watches at the moment (not much of a collection really but should grow eventually) but my fave watch has got to be my trusty 14060M sub - i truely adore it :) I am 28 so prefer the "all round" stainless steel watch and who cares about the date when you have your phone anyway...

Here are some pics of my the dynamic duo together which I alternate between daily...and i just wanted to say a big hi to everyone

apologies for my crummy pics i just snaped them quickly off my blackberry...

Welcome to the forum. Nice Collection you have there! I personally wont buy a Rolex without the date. The cyclops is signiture Rolex and makes the watch more valuable. Thats my opinion though. I wouldnt say no if someone bought me a non-date sub.

Welcome to TRF and great watches you have there!! As for date and cyclops- if it was so signature Rolex it would have been on their first Subs!! Love the no date- a Modern with classic looks and lug holes!! Great VC too!!

Nice watches and welcome to TRF. I like the look of the no-date, the only problem I have is that a lot of watches in my "rotation" have a date so I get used to it being there then when it isnt I am always looking for it then having to dig out my phone after

Welcome!

I'm a new member as well. I own a Rolex DateJust. The rest of my collection is made up of 6-8 affordable watches i.e. Bulova, Citzen, Seiko, Luminox.

Enjoy the forums.

Both really nice, if you don't mind me asking roughly what does a VC like that cost?
