114060 and the glide-lock bracelet

[mr_gray]

Hi All,
hoping that a little wisdom could be shared here. I am looking at the 114060 sub. I'm also looking at about every other sub out there as I seem to have become obsessed. I do not, however, have any interest in the metal bracelet/clasp. Whether that be the older style or the glide-lock. It is not that I have anything in particular against Rolex bracelets, just that I prefer the idea of wearing any watch on rubber/leather as opposed to metal.

So my query is, would it be foolish of me to think that if I bought a 114060 I could offset the relatively higher price (versus say a 14060(m)) by considering selling the glide-lock clasp and bracelet?

I have tried to price the glide-lock clasp/bracelet combo but found little to base any predictions on. Is there much of a market? Enthusiastic endorsement (of the glide-lock clasp at least) by many who seem to think darkly of the new cases leads me to believe there may be a market. The only prices for these I have seen seem astonishing ($1000+).

For those currently lucky enough to own these newer submariners etc with the glide-lock, do you believe I will be reluctant to part with the glide-lock should I also be lucky enough to own it?

Any thoughts along this train of thought from the learned members on the forum would be greatly appreciated.

cheers
Steve
