No question

Red 1680. Any modern non date sub 5513/14060/14060m.

Those are the ones I want. The reality is that is hard to beat a 16610 for daily wear.

This 14060M was a great favorite to me and the most comfortable on the wrist:

Green Sub with the 'maxi dial' nothing can compare to the power and supremacy of the maxi dial sub! (But I do like my 5512)

LV Sub for me because the Red Sub was not listed, I would kill for a Red Sub.

1680 Red isn't represented as an option in the poll, but that is the Sub model I'd vote for!

Also, you "ask" in the poll "Does the full gold Sub Date BLACK exist?"

Yes, it exists.

My 14060m [No date sub] is my favourite watch - I have loads others but nothing comes close.

I agree with Tim. 14060m w/o a doubt. It's my least expensive Rolex (and the only one I purchased used and not from an AD), but it's my absolute favorite. It's the classic no date design and has ties back to the original subs. Now, it's got me pondering if I should get a M-serial 14060m with the COSC.

I have always been very fond of the red sub, and the double red Sea-Dweller. I don't feel I will ever own one as they cost too much, and there are so many fakes out there. I would have to have someone like Jocke, Bo, Mike, Steve, or JJ at my side to ensure I was not getting ripped off with a Franken red sub, or red SD. Does not hurt to dream.

I pray that at the B. show in April, Rolex will re-introduce a double red Sea-Dweller, or a maxi-dial Sub with red on the dial. I would camp out over night to be number one on the AD list for both. Wishful thinking guys/gals think red at the B. show April 08.
