Incoming (Post Flip) Sub-C

I ultimately decided to flip the DJII for the Sub-C Date. Although the DJII w/fluted bezel is a great watch, I was just a little too flashy for my liking. Here is to many years of enjoying the Sub-C.

Frankly, while there may be no such thing as the one perfect watch - the SubC comes as close to it as I've ever found.

Congratulations on the Sub C!!! For me I did the exact opposite; I found the Sub C equally flashy although lacking in character as the only way the insert changes is through cracks which require replacement. I also found the Sub C not nearly as comfortable. I'm glad I made the change.
