Sub without question

AK797 · 9 July 2018, 08:53 PM

Somehow the JLC faux vintage lume doesn't work for me, otherwise it is a nice watch.

Submariner

nikanarani · 10 July 2018, 02:17 PM

The Sub looks better on your wrist.

Justindo · 10 July 2018, 02:32 PM

While I love JLC and chronographs and I like the looks and layout of this watch, I really dislike the fauxtina. For that reason alone, I would probably go with the Rolex, even though it's common and doesn't dress up well.

Sub

woodsworth · 10 July 2018, 02:52 PM

Tremendous respect for JLC... but in this comparison, I'd keep the Submariner.

If it were a Polaris, you'd have a different answer from me ;>

Robbyman · 10 July 2018, 06:01 PM

Those JLC chrono movements are delicate at best. Check it out, lots of problems.

Brew · 10 July 2018, 06:08 PM

Already have a belly button, JLC for me.

Sub Date. Can't beat its versatility and style.

RMC12 · 10 July 2018, 07:31 PM

Sub for sure!

Rolly.BT · 10 July 2018, 07:32 PM

You do understand this is a Rolex forum?

Submariner

1William · 10 July 2018, 09:31 PM

I really like the JLC and in a multi watch collection it would get a lot of wrist time. Between the two, the Rolex Submariner wins hands down. It is hard to beat a Rolex Diver and if I had only one it would be a either a Submariner or a Sea Dweller.

_speedmaster_ · 10 July 2018, 09:39 PM

The one you like the most.

I always kind of laugh at these "Rolex v another company" threads. You're on a Rolex forum asking members (some of which own multiple sub iterations) if the sub is best. I'd also wager over half the people commenting have never even seen that JLC in person.

rushca01 · 10 July 2018, 11:47 PM

If those are your only two I would say sub for sure. If you own Rolex’s I would consider keeping the JLC as it is less common than the sub. Either way first world problem.

beshannon · 10 July 2018, 11:50 PM

JLC>Rolex

However, Sub over this JLC

PLNYC · 11 July 2018, 12:07 AM

I’d keep the sub

Woody · 11 July 2018, 12:09 AM

I think the JLC is the nicer looking watch but if it was me I know I would keep the Submariner........it is a Rolex!!

mulgogy · 11 July 2018, 12:15 AM

Ive owned both Sub and JLC DSC, kept the sub. JLC never got enough wrist time and I found it prettier in the box than actually comfortable on the wrist. I tried hard to convince myself otherwise too. I dont miss it.

Psijason · 11 July 2018, 12:49 AM

Sub for sure!!!!

Daytona. All my neighbors have a sub

droptopman · 11 July 2018, 08:19 AM

That JLC is a cool watch with some neat features. However, do not care for the faux patina. Plus I love Subs, so Sub it is.

superdog · 11 July 2018, 09:21 AM

JLC in a heartbeat.

I was surprised this was a choice.

Rarely do I see sokome with such good taste.

That watch exudes class.

The Joker · 11 July 2018, 09:32 AM

Be different, keep JLC

BzKneez · 11 July 2018, 10:14 AM
