Sub ND??

Good Day All,

I have a Daytona on hold but now with the Sub ND being replaced, I am thinking of picking one up before they are gone.

What you think? Daytona or Sub ND? I could always get a Daytona next year but the Sub ND will be gone soon.

Take care,

Eric

I think you'll be able to find the 14060m for a little while yet. I would get the one you want the most first no matter which one that is.

I have a 14060m which I love, but also recently got a Daytona and I would say go with the Daytona.

You can always pick up a 14060m when you are ready. Get the one you want the most, if you truly wanted the Daytona--get it.

I think the randoms might get purchased up pretty quick considering they have the same movement as in the new Sub 114060. I already know a few guys jumping on them.

Very short run with the PB spring in the classic case.

I don't think the Sub ND will be difficult to find, it will cost a bit more in a few months time.

I sold mine a year ago, I wish I hadn't.

I don't think there will be a shortage of either. Buy and wear what you like and never look back :)

Sub no date???

Big price difference but I agree, buy the no date as you should be able to get a Daytona for awhile.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.

I think I am going to grab the Sub-ND on Monday. My AD is giving me a great price and I really want a sports watch for hiking and outdoors.

I am thinking I will still pick up that Daytona soon also, I really want one of those too.

they are incomparable.

Id say Daytona.

Current Daytona will also discountinue once it will be coming with a ceramic bezel (hopefully by Basel2013), this thing has no end....

Getting your first Daytona would be special - but if it's not your first then flip a coin.

The 14060M may be your first choice if you MUST have it new - otherwise if pre-owned is OK then again, coin flip.

My Daytona gets a lot more wrist time than my 14060M. That being said neither are really rare, go with what you like more. If I was spending your money I would go Daytona.

I'm not a huge Daytona fan, so I would say go for the Sub and keep saving for the Daytona. You'll have some $4000 left over from the Sub.

This is just my personal opinion. I like the 14060M a lot and even more since I bought mine.

I have been thinking about this all weekend and I am also thinking about a Sub-C, the date would be nice to have but the easylink bracelet is what I like on the Sub-C.

I would get the Daytona and save for the new Sub-C (they should be available later in the year).
