Sub 14060M COSC and Exp II black face

I know this is a stupid question, but just wondering of which one much better for daily wearing? Sub ND COSC 14060M and Exp II black face.

Sub... It is always useful to be able to set the bezel as a reminder!

Explorer II is better. It's thinner and lighter hence more comfortable to wear daily.

Alternate days. These are, IMO, equivalent watches. Now, ask the Explorer/Sub v. DJ and you'll get some responses.

I miss having my GMT with the extra hour hand and date function but I do love the look of the Sub. I'd alternate watches each day so they both stay wound and showing the correct time.

Both are extremely comfortable. That said, the Exp II is slightly more comfortable due to its 20g lighter weight and low on the wrist.

Both watches are very nice but they do have different attributes. If you do not need to know the date then the Sub would be perfect and of course if you want the date feature go with the Explorer II. I happen to own a Sub ND and wouldn't trade it for the world!!!
