Timeless, classic, tasteful, quality, just plain "class." Congratulations! I bought the same beauty in March, hope you enjoy it as much as I do. It truly grows on you, and when your not weraring it, you truly miss it. It also takes on different hues and looks; the more you wear it casually or formally. Enjoy!!

Congrats on a great watch. The good news is that between the two watches you were looking at there is no bad answer. I could not decide so had a Sub for 15 years and then switched to a GMT for a change. Well done again and congratulations. Now if you can just avoid the rising damp

You won't regret your decision, the Sub is a classic as you're most likely aware. Enjoy!

Congrats. I've owned several Omegas, Seikos, and a PAM but the classic Submariner Date is my favorite!
