[QUOTE=Karbo;5483286]You shd try the SD116600 : old style + modern upgrades = my daily wearer




SD116600 is indeed a nice watch, but I meant "Non Ceramic" & old school bracelet.

I too went through the same decision making process, ended up owning both :)

I equally love both, more on the new one side, but the old one is my daily wearer..

hard to say..

I have both. I love the 14060 when wearing my white or blue long sleeve shirt with a tie. The perfect size for a dress shirt and classic coolness. The SubC just looks better if wearing a polo or short sleeve shirt. The bigger lugs, ceramic and maxi dial just give it more presence when more of your forearm is exposed. The 14060 is just better in a business suit that basically only shows itself when your sitting at a conference room table, lunch or at your desk. As for the feel. Honestly they feel the same to me. But then again I wear a DSSD on weekends. So everything seems lite. haha

My 14060M feels awesome on my wrist, it is not too light and not too heavy.
However my subC feels and looks heavy and bulky.
I also love the matte bezel on the 14060M.
Some people say that the 14060M tuna can bracelet rattles, but it fits very well.
Although all the upgrades from the SubC models are much better I prefer the old style.
Just my opinion.
Agree about the bracelet - I like the tuna can for lightness, and the rattle doesn't bother me; I also like the weight and feel of new bracelet and the easylink - I guess my opinion changes depending on the watch...
