Cool pics. The modern sub looks like an SD43 next to those.

Great idea and pics!

I like those 5 digits best...just something about the proportions (the six digit bezels seem slightly too big to me in comparison).

I don't think that the bezel is larger on the 6, i think just the insert, by a margin, while the knurled edge is a tad shorter than it is on its predecessors.

Great photo array. Interestingly I’m partial to the 6 series followed by the 4. The 5 series seems just middling in comparison. No pun intended

Great thread, thanks Andre. The aluminum Subs/GMTs are undeniably beautiful but I've also come to love my Sub C for what it is.

I think the 5 digits were the sweet spot of both references

agree! I wish Rolex would head back in that direction. You can see the switch from tool to jewelry.
