No Date Sub vs Green Bezel Date Sub

[scotttampa]

I've owned several great Rolex watches over the years. Now I have two on a waiting list at my local dealer -- can seem to stop. As indicated in the subject line, I'm kinda divided. Don't know when I might be in line to actually purchase -- that said, which model is more desirable? I'm probably gonna pull the pin on the first one that is offered; however, I'd like to hear what you guys would prefer if given the choice for one over the other. Welcome thoughts.

You know, those are the last 2 that I'm on a list for. Both are great. I like the pop of color with the green bezel, but also like the simplicity of the no date.

too bad they don't make a green bezel no date, huh

[ppierce]

No date sub as your first Green as your second.

[Krash]

I prefer the black dial Submariner, but having both would be great.

No date sub. Its a classic.

[S’portEye]

No date. Simple, elegant, perfection.

[EL Diablo]

I own both. I went no date for my first Rolex.

but I find myself wearing the Green a lot more since black Subs are everywhere.

I have the green bezel sub, it’s unique and different. I like it more than a black bezel. Black sub is great for everyday, but my preference was to go with something a little more unique.

I have both but everytime I put on the ND sub it just feels right. Classic and timeless design. You need both is the short answer.

oh yeah, this.

Either or for me, both are beautiful…

Cheers

LV love it

[Guppydriver]

I love the LV bezel. I also prefer no dates. I can see your being conflicted. I’d just convince myself that the first one offered is the one that is meant to be.

[Spoonage]

I had the choice between the 2 back in the day... Ultimately I went with the 114060.

[Rolexforthewin]

I own both, but certainly gravitate more towards the no date Sub.

[911cz]

No date for me actually.

Both are great, but the Mark 2 bezel looks amazing. My LV is getting more wrist time than my Pepsi.

agree, i would take the MK2 over the no date but if it is the MK1 vs No date then i will go for the no date. hard to explain unless you see the three of them in person

[Torshalla]

I own the no date, so I have a bias here… :)
The Sub no date is simply perfect. Works any day anywhere. Feels and looks great. It is a little less attention seeking with a black bezel and no date cyclop. That is what I love about it.

The LV is beautiful too, though more flashy I guess. It depends if you want your watch to be noticed more I guess?

Also, green is nice, but I love blue. If there was a stainless steel blue bezel, I would go for it…
So depends what colours you prefer.

No date sub gets the nod from me

[travisb]

LV for me but I could easily see owning both.

You're not buying it for me.

Just picked up my new Sub ND yesterday, and I must say it just looks and feels perfect! It’s going to get a lot of wrist time as well, and happy to have a watch in my collection too without the date function. Absolute classic.

Great shot. Bravo

Submariner ND for me. I like the LV's and have owned several over the years but always fall back to the classic.

Last year I had both and gave my no date sub to my son. Any day now I should be getting my new no date sub to replace it. I love them both but if I had to choose it would be the no date.

[TruthBalance]

No Date Sub. Love the symmetry.

[rmlovett1]

Personally, I like to be a bit different from 95% of the subs I see when I see them in the wild. For a Rolex Sub, I’d choose most any other iteration first before the standard black dial. Not that it isn’t a beautiful/iconic watch, I’d just prefer something other than what I see in the wild 95% of the time.
If I do have a black dial diver, I know…not that much difference, but the fully graduated bezel is enough for me, my choice would be… SD4K, SD43, or Deep Sea.

I can relate to this. That’s why I got myself a Bluesy and absolutely love it
