Appreciate it, Mike!! Enjoyed reading your story about your hectic week last week and am glad for you that you did end up getting the SubC. :) It's awesome that it did work out for both of us after all!

Congrats! Can't wait to see the new one!

I just sold my 114060 and it was my first Rolex and I never thought I would part with it. I honestly think it is the best watch, but hanging out here has me in the same situation as you

I fear for my future lol.

Thanks! I know exactly how you feel.. I could not find any fault in the 114060, and it's pretty damn close to a perfect watch. Just that, I liked the BLNR more and unfortunately I can't keep both :( this hobby is dangerous lol

What's next on your list now that the SubC is gone??

Basically it is an addition. It is no different to smoking, drinking, drugs, sport, cars, clothes - shopping is the same. It is a method of satisfying a deficiency in our life styles, mainly boredom or stress and it makes you feel good. The trouble is the feel good factor only lasts for a limited time before your needs take over. So you learn to control it or you become an addict. I've got a problem with too much sport, new cars, pens, clothes and watches....!!!! However, common sense makes sure I do it within budget and that I do not impinge on anyone else. To cure the itch, if it is unaffordable, find another addition that is good for you - sport?

Aaaand it has landed..

No pictures could ever justify how amazing this looks in the metal. This may be the cure that I was waiting for to not want any other watches. Wow!

Huge THANKS again to watchcollectorca !!

Congratulations on the BLNR, I do think you should have held on to the 114060 too. They are a perfect combo
