Why not a mid-size Sub, since and if...

TRF Friends,

If and since Rolex makes a mid-size yaht-master, why not make a mid size Sub like the Tudors of old?

excellent point! I think a mid-size sub would be a huge success!

Interesting idea. Wonder how well the Tudor mini Subs sold?

My previous watch was a mid size Tag from almost 20 years ago. Now it looks positively feminine. I cant see any market for a midsize sub except for women, and many of them like the larger sizes these days. Having said that if there was a midsize sub I'd consider it for my wife.

Why not a midsized Sub? TRADITION! Why mess around with an icon that "made" the brand?? Let all the "other" manufacturers make sport watches sized like clothing.

If you want a midsized sport watch... buy the YM. I have smaller wrists and I would not even think of not buying a full size Sub. Even my Beater watch, an Omega 2254.50 is full size, dispite being available in a midsize.

As it stands now, a 40mm watch is considered by many in the industry "mid-size" anyway!
