Such a silly question.

Of course it is.

Brucie D · 6 March 2016, 03:31 AM

Both times I've gone in to buy a sub I left with something else:

It will be neat to see what I get next time I go in for a Sub ;)

Yes!

FTX I · 6 March 2016, 03:34 AM

For me Hell Yes!

RichM · 6 March 2016, 03:34 AM

It was for me. As a matter of fact, it's the Grail watch in my small collection.

sgmgolf · 6 March 2016, 03:34 AM

Always thought it was a yes for me but as I got older I have come to realize I am more of a GMT kinda guy.

Viffer · 6 March 2016, 03:36 AM

No.

Buy for yourself, not what a random group of people on the internet want you to have

Agree. If it floats your boat, that's great and have at it. But I have kept passing on it when I have purchased the watches that are in my meager collection.

T. Ferguson · 6 March 2016, 10:48 AM

If collecting Rolex, then yes. The Sub is kind of like the navy blue suit in a gentleman's wardrobe. No matter how many suits you have, one of them needs to be navy blue.

Time Collector · 8 March 2016, 11:46 AM

Not only a must, but a main stay.

KrismanX · 6 March 2016, 03:38 AM

I think if I went for a sub, it would be vintage. Now when money is no object to me, then I will have a sh'load of pieces, and a Sub would definitely be there.

Definitely not top of my list, but it's on there.

TheRolexKingofLV · 6 March 2016, 09:53 AM

For a "collector" I'd say yes because it's an icon...for the rest of the world, buy what YOU like

tkdgod · 6 March 2016, 03:41 AM

Only sub i would add is the smurf

red1108nyc · 6 March 2016, 03:42 AM

Yes - old or new!

kirksingleton · 6 March 2016, 03:42 AM

It is for me!

Askewww · 6 March 2016, 03:43 AM

Nope I hate the sub.

carreramay · 6 March 2016, 03:54 AM

Nope. Not for me. Don't dive and never will (not that that matters). GMT is a must for ME. Fun and useful when traveling.

Daytona88 · 6 March 2016, 04:13 AM

Not for me...yet. I think I am more likely to go with a GMT before a sub.

Black Bay Dan · 6 March 2016, 04:15 AM

I have a Tudor Black Bay but will not rest until I have a minty Rolex Submariner 16610LV

KenNethcole · 6 March 2016, 04:29 AM

Yes, my fave watch by a large margin.

dmitrii_ · 6 March 2016, 04:30 AM

I say yes, Sub got a lot of ppl into this thing to begin with. Must have.

VinnieVegas · 6 March 2016, 04:32 AM

I hope to own a Submariner, but don't particularly care for the submariner date.

I think a 14060, 14060M, or a 114060 is important in a modern collection.

Yeah.....I think everyone needs a sub. I have a SDc and I still crave the LVc or the Subc.

cdmorenot · 6 March 2016, 04:58 AM

Every time I go to buy something I end up getting a Sub. So yeah, you absolutely need a Sub.

anothernewphone · 6 March 2016, 05:03 AM

I love my Daytona. I think it's interesting, classy, and the perfect fit for my wrist. .... buuut I still love the Submariner Date, and I'd grab one in a heartbeat if the deal was great. I'm trying to keep my nose down and save for a Day-Date, though. AP has almost swayed me, too.

mjclark32 · 6 March 2016, 05:09 AM

davegct · 6 March 2016, 05:13 AM

To me it depends what you mean by "collection". Some people may want to collect variations/vintages within a particular Rolex line and so if Submariner is not that line then no. However a Rolex Sub seems to be today's standard sport watch and will likley hold its value better than some others.
