5513. otherwise go with the date ;)

Cato · 9 March 2018, 03:13 PM

I like the date because I can never remember the day’s date. The cyclops is also classic Rolex. I like my Rolex looking like a Rolex - loud and proud.

BUT, you want something understated and already have a GMT that has a date. The ND is super cool among watch enthusiasts.

MARGARITATIME · 9 March 2018, 03:23 PM

I went days trying to figure out which one to get. I have other watches with the date so figured ND would be a good choice. I rarely ever use the feature so it made it easier for me to decide. As a plus the ND looks better with the symmetrical dial. People associate the Cyclops to Rolex so that could be considered a positive or negative depending on your views. Either way both are great choices.

Both great, wore a date for many years, now because I switch watches every few days. I prefer no date, I enjoy setting the time and going.

douglasf13 · 9 March 2018, 04:10 PM

Date?? I can barely handle not having the Day these days, let alone the Date.

VicLeChic · 9 March 2018, 04:26 PM

If you can live without date, then 114060.

dreyep · 9 March 2018, 04:29 PM

ND. You can always work out what date it is by counting how many days it's been since Christmas or any other convenient reference point. And who really wants to confront a goggle-eyed freak every time they consult their watch?

Pattyb69 · 9 March 2018, 04:35 PM

Ive owned Date and No Date. Loved them both but they are gone now. No idea which one I would choose if I had to buy again. Sorry but I'm no help at all

Alex6340 · 9 March 2018, 04:38 PM

I would go with the date. You will miss the date very soon on the ND

That’s basically like saying everyone should pick a slantnose over a big-eyed Porsche 911. It’s a hallmark of the brand.

I think when you already have a watch with a date, it would be better to get a no date

abbassmaki · 9 March 2018, 06:15 PM

ND. It will look more different from your TT black GMT. It has also a dressy character than your casual/sporty GMT.

Nearly almost everything on it is off. The cyclops magnification, the date font, the lume pips are too bubbly, the fonts on the dial are all incorrect, I'm not even sure if ceramic subs came with swiss T<25. The pearl pip doesn't look correct, the markings on the bezel spacing are all wrong. The solid end link fitment looks bad, and I'm pretty sure the crown looks shoddy too.

Both okay, but I prefer a date.

thetimemachine · 9 March 2018, 07:30 PM

I’m not a big fan of the cyclops on dive watches. Hence I would lean more in the direction of the ND Sub.

In case a date function is needed, I would suggest to consider a SeaDweller (one of the previous models).

But, in the end it’s up to you and it’s your choice. ;-) Enjoy the process.

What? Really? It's not mine. He bought the watch overseas. I'll have it checked out at the local AD. Thanks

q8rolex · 9 March 2018, 08:27 PM

no date

Onequik135i · 9 March 2018, 08:48 PM

I had the choice between both at my local AD & chose the ND without any hesitation.
