Great choice. That, or something like it, will be my first Rolex. Has that one been serviced recently?

brandrea · 20 June 2015, 03:51 AM

Excellent choice indeed

MCO1 · 20 June 2015, 04:04 AM

Awesome choice....wearing mine today. I don't believe I will be letting mine go.

AK797 · 20 June 2015, 04:35 AM

Yes! I'll go and have a look today!

Andad · 20 June 2015, 06:32 PM

Good choice John.

My 'K' 14060 from about 2001.

Excellent model.

polaris72 · 20 June 2015, 10:05 PM

Way to go!

JoeyT · 20 June 2015, 10:14 PM

The no date is a pure classic. Love them

travisb · 20 June 2015, 10:24 PM

A Sub would be a great start to a collection or as a one and only!

eeh100773 · 20 June 2015, 10:36 PM

Smart, uncluttered, elegant. Can be worn in any circumstances. The classic sports watch.

ragingcao · 21 June 2015, 12:26 AM

Great choice. Well done. Now go get her and post some pics afterwards.

sea-dweller · 21 June 2015, 12:40 AM

Great choice! The 14060 was my first also!

WWC · 21 June 2015, 12:46 AM

Never tired of saying the same thing... Can't go wrong with a sub! Good choice my friend. Congratulations!

Jack T · 21 June 2015, 12:54 AM

What do I think?... Who would say 'no'?

usergiovi · 21 June 2015, 02:52 AM

Perfect choice !

Mr. K · 21 June 2015, 03:17 AM

Sub is a must in every collection. IMHO

Jaycnyp · 21 June 2015, 05:34 AM

Do it! Wait sorry I'm a chronic enabler or so I'm told.... It is a great watch.

Allectus · 21 June 2015, 05:47 AM

Nice. A Dive Watch is always a good choice for a first "real" watch.

GsurgBM · 21 June 2015, 06:24 AM

Great watch.

Oyster99 · 21 June 2015, 06:36 AM

Love it, good start!

watchwatcher · 21 June 2015, 06:41 AM

How can you go wrong with a sub for a first? Or second, third...etc.

subtona · 21 June 2015, 06:42 AM

great choice

T. Ferguson · 21 June 2015, 06:51 AM

A Sub is a good choice for your first Rolex, with or without a date. Should you end up with several Rolex watches you might as well start with one that you'd probably acquire at some point anyway.

The 16610 was my first. Not really that I chose it as my first Rolex so much as it was the watch I wanted. I wasn't really wanting a Rolex; I wanted a Rolex Submariner. Of course, after that I was hooked and then the question did indeed become which Rolex I should buy next?

Boaters · 21 June 2015, 06:59 AM

I ended up geting this new from a AD! What you guys think?

cht · 21 June 2015, 08:31 AM

^^^I would have went for the sub, personally, as it has a more rugged/masculine look.

But that's just me!

Enjoy your new watch! And don't freak out when you start noticing scratches all over the PCL (polished center links) on the bracelet as they are scratch magnents. Seriously, you look at it the wrong way and a scratch will come up, that;s normal!
