Get the DD40 for all gold. I saw a person wearing an all gold blue sub and maybe it was because we were inside with eh lighting but it looked lackluster. The DD40 on the other hand always is recognizable and very appealing imo. Im going to be getting the YG DD and then a two tone bluesey which imo is the best thing for a sub where you get the durability of a sports watch with the SS and a nice finishing touch with the gold so you can dress it up.

The gold sub all the way! The blue is amazing!

Sub

ducfrog · 8 May 2018, 06:31 AM

Tough choice, but since you have a ss submariner already, I would go with the yg DD. You can’t go wrong with either, just be aware of the very limited adjustability of the DD bracelet.

I ended up with both in the collection.

DD40 with silver dial over the champagne. But champagne with baguettes over that I would say. YG blue Sub is a beauty though

Yellow gold blue SubC 116618lb.

Sport vs Formal. All gold I would do formal. I might consider a Daytona in gold.

lecorsaire · 8 May 2018, 09:04 AM

It comes down to owning one of the most iconic sports watches in existence vs. the classic, flagship Rolex which is able to be dressy as well as sporty. It really depends on your lifestyle and what environment you’ll be wearing the watch the most in.

Day Date but its not an easy choice haha

TickTockChuck · 8 May 2018, 10:13 AM

The DD40 in YG with the president braclet is very iconic and special and would provide some diversity. It's also a great watch to mark one's passage into the later years when you reflect on your accomplishments more. Good luck and Cheers!

Both are awesome and hard to choose! I was in the same situation and I went with DD40 but saving for the gold sub!!!!

GolfGuy · 8 May 2018, 10:51 AM

Tough call but DD40 for me

Hoaf · 8 May 2018, 12:57 PM

Day date is the best pm Rolex hands down and then buy a ss sub on top that way you have the best of both worlds

Pkim024 · 8 May 2018, 01:35 PM

DD40 all the way...

Gold Sub

HAL330 · 10 May 2018, 11:03 AM

Without a doubt, the 116618LB Blue Dial YG Sub... by far my favorite Rolex... inclusive of the Daytona and all the hard to find SS models..

HAL330 · 10 May 2018, 11:06 AM

plus I feel like the gold DD is just too much of an "old man" watch... always see guys in their 60's wearing those.

To the OP:, it's a really tough call. Both watches are obviously extraordinary. After you give your son your sub, this will technically be a one and only. To me, that's gotta be a sub.

If you were to keep your 14060 I'd say to get the DD40, you'd have an amazing two watch rotation.
