Hulk, due to the fact it is so unique and not many seen in the wild. I love mine after 3 years. If you decide it is not for you, the watch is very easy to flip as there is always somebody who desires one.

No date. You have dates on the other two.

The no date is classy (arguably works better than the BLNR in a suit) and also a little more inconspicuous. Gives you the option of not wearing a cyclops, and only those with super vision or know rolex will recognize it.

Beautiful watch

I currently own the GMT 116710LN and my next Rolex would be either new Explorer 214270 or classic Sub 114060. So to me, easy choice, 114060 please :D

If you want a classic Sub go for a 5 digit 14060 or 14060m. If you want a 6 digit one (for the glidelock!) go for the classic 114060. It's the sub in it's purest form. Fully balanced dial and the modern expression of what it was always meant to be.

For sure. The last sub of its kind. Holes case, original dial and case and chronometer certification! This will never be available again on future subs. If I had one I would never sell it.

Now finding the right one at the right price is half the battle.
But if you need shiny & new, then yeah I agree with some of the others, 114060.
Agreed.

+1 for 114060. The more watches you own the more it is difficult to keep the date correct. Good Luck!

I have the 114060 as my daily wearer... I think its great.. wears well. I like the clean look/ don't let price stop you if you want the date/ its only about 500 dollars more.

I had the SD, was a great watch but was heavier/ the date was so small I needed my glasses to see it. When I retired I wanted to replace my SD but the 9K plus was too much, so I went with the SUB ND... very happy and never missed the date... got an iPhone for that.

Be Safe JIM
