Sub C

A bit of a simple question but thinking of getting a sub C here on this forum but considering they have not been out long why are so many people selling them this soon??????????

Not sure - they might be too large for some folks who prefer the non-maxi case.

I love mine!

I think there is ALWAYS a lot of flipping with watches. Some people on here buy a watch and never get rid of them. Others wear them as the flavor of the month! There are also the sellers here that are in the business of moving watches. Nothing wrong with the SubC at all. Have at it!!

I am amazed by quick flippers as well...but it happens.

Other dealers here get them from ADs returns etc.

The Sub C is the best Rolex I have ever owned, go for it and don't let the flippers give you pause.

Buying and selling is a bit of disease sometimes, lol. It's all part of the hobby. Regardless, the SubC is an awesome piece and you can't go wrong with it. Just be glad you can readily find a fairly new one on the sales board for much less than list at an AD.

I'm keeping mine. It's the Sub with the features I've been looking for a long time.

I flipped both of mine...LN and LV ceramics... The LV the green just wasnt for me, with the dial and the insert and both being different greens I just could not get over it... Passed it on...

The LN, I actually miss as I loved the watch howver I felt it was too similar to my GMT ceramic and therefore opted to keep the GMT and make some room for the SD I just acquired.

Great watches, feel great on this wrist, the above are just my reasons, go get one I am willing to bet you will love it

If lots of people are selling it, then it must mean you'll pay a good price?

So go for it and congrats in advance!
