Submariner or Submariner Date. The definitive survey.

[Justinmg]

I love the look of the sub, but I want a date. That’s why I think the SD was the best because no cyclops.

No Date Sub

Get Sub. ND and later on get new Kermit.

I’m biased (114060 owner). I like the simplicity of the dial and the symmetry.

If I need a date my iPhone works wonders!

Which one do you want? The Submariner, more faithful to the original or the Submariner Date, more practical?

It's gotta be the date for me. While I love the classy look of the no dates, I need the functionality of the date. I recently purchased the new 126610LN and I absolutely love it! I actually used this super helpful guide when I was deciding which Rolex Submariner to get: https://www.bobswatches.com/rolex-bl...ing-guide.html

Love the sub the best. But from personal experience if you have the sub, have a complement date (sub, datejust, GMT) as well. I guess if I only had one, would do the sub date, but really prefer the submariner better. Very clean look, special.
