Which 11610 (ceramic) Sub would you get?

I got the black 11610, and I love it, but now I am catching myself wanting a green one, too. I am trying to reason with myself that it probably would be redundant and I would be struggling to decide which one to wear when etc. What do you guys think?

I voted black but truthfully neither of those!

I have a hankering for the TT in blue :)

I voted for the black one, but I would also get a new ceramic green bezel as well.

if it was the discontinued I would say the 16610LV, not the black

if it has to be the new model I would go for the black ceramic

I have had both for one day.

Before I got them I was 99.9% sure I would prefer the LN.

But once I saw the LV 'life' I was a gonner. That watch is the most beautiful steel Rolex ever made.

I have kept wearing the LV since I got it and all my other watches are in the safe. And normally I like to switch. The dial is simply breathtaking.

I voted for the Green Ceramic ...

I am however torn. If I were buying for the short term I would get Green, Long term Black.

Not sure why I feel that way, I think I may get tired of the Green. Black just goes with everything and is all business. Green is fun !!!

I will probably buy the green one. But I wish to see in person and try on my wrist first. I thing it is a big departure from the traditional looks of the Sub, but I like it a lot in pictures.
I need to see it in person to be able to decide!
Best regards, Abel

Fell in love with the black first, but after seeing some awesome pics on this site, I would be infinitely happy with the green!

Get the LV and buy a black insert! Best of both worlds.
