I have seen when people when posting subs and GMTs saying they have the maxi dial. What is the difference between a Maxi and the other dial?

Bigger markers and fatter hands. You can see this on the Green Sub vs. the regular Submariner.

Thanks, I was not sure. So not all the current (2005 up)subs have Maxi dials?

Thanks for the images. I see it is a very noticable difference.

I prefer the standard dial

Only sub with the Maxi that is currently made is the LV, aka Kermit, aka Anniversary,

The black subs are all standard. There are some older, Maxi ones

Thanks everyone. That clears it up for me.

Before I used to as well but the Maxi dial kinda grew on me, love it now after comparing.

I would love to get the lv with the maxi dial and put a black insert in it.now that would be sharp.
even better-lv with a ceramic black.
I dont want any comments about my taste in watches either..

Correct!

You could put an LV maxi dial (if you can find a spare one, mind you) on the normal SS Sub Date like Jocke did. Or get an LV and exchange the green bezel insert for a standard black one if you want a "standard" Sub look with a maxi dial.
