114060 for me. Why? Just look at it. It's perfect.

But they are all beautiful, except the one that got all the diamonds that someone posted coupla weeks ago. That was a botch job if I've ever seen one!

Hulk is definitely a very unique masterpiece.
As you can see it in the pics above, the watch looks very different based on the lighting which is gorgeous and i'm loving this feeling of ceramic bezel and the maxi dials!
Of course, the glide lock is a amazing upgrade from the previous models.

any 1680x model...

I really like the smaller size and appearance of the 1680 models, red or white. Here is my current daily wear watch...

My Fav is the one I own. D-serial 16610. I almost bought Sub-C but it didn't sit well on my wrist. It was a bit uncomfortable.

I'd have to go 5513... It's got a very warm vintage feel (best way I could describe it) without breaking bank like older vintage models do. I've got a 5513 made my birth year on my want list as the watch that will complete my humble collection.

I am drawn more and more to the 14060 but don't have one. So for now I'll go with my LV

Favorite Submariner model, and why?

I like this one:





But I also like this one:





So, either of these are winners for me. Bought the date version first, but was still drawn to one without the date. Glad to have them both...but have a very slight preference for the clean, un obstructed look of the date-less version. The date feature can be handy, though, keeping me pretty torn between the two.
