Guy's, I need your help. What would be your choice
Sea-Dweller or
New COSC 14060M Classic Sub.

I may tell you why I ask later.

frostie · 16 January 2008, 02:43 AM

If i where you i would go for the 14060M classic sub. It looks amazing

I'm with Frostie.

JJ Irani · 16 January 2008, 02:45 AM

Although I voted for the SD (only 'cause of the date factor), the no-date Sub looks sleeker and aesthetically has a much better looking dial.

Your call, pal.

Good luck either way!! You can't go wrong!!

JJ

SPACE-DWELLER · 16 January 2008, 02:46 AM

I'd go for the SD. More exclusive, IMHO.

Robb · 16 January 2008, 02:48 AM

I cant make that decision, its too hard!!!!!

timetravel125 · 16 January 2008, 02:51 AM

My vote goes to SD. Heft, date and style.

DSJ · 16 January 2008, 02:55 AM

Only because I already have a Sub with the date in the 16613, and I should have bought a 14060 last week when the price was right!

watchlady · 16 January 2008, 03:03 AM

14060M I got mine yesterday but am having it shipped to me!

kcmo · 16 January 2008, 03:04 AM

I voted 14060M...the dial of the SD really does look smaller to me (yes, I know its the same size as the subs) and I'm not crazy about the thicker case.

Baptistman · 16 January 2008, 03:11 AM

Congrats Lisa, keep the thoughts coming guys, will explain why later.

Honestly, Jon, if DATE is NOT an issue with you, then I'd recommend the no-date Sub in a heartbeat.

Good luck - JJ

I mean take a look at this beauty. It's a no brainer

mestreaudi · 16 January 2008, 04:11 AM

I´d go for the SD!!!!

Rafael.

SSD · 16 January 2008, 04:17 AM

I voted Sub. Its a modern 5513 in my book, I only wish for a domed crystal. For me, while excellent, they're quite different from each other, and its like comparing apples to oranges.

Baptistman · 16 January 2008, 04:22 AM

Ok Guys, here it is. I'm suffering from the "I want" syndrome. I love the SD, but I also love the slimmer approach of the Sub. Thats it, I can't afford another watch, so I have to either flip, or suck it in and be satisfied.

Downing · 16 January 2008, 04:28 AM

It's a tough choice and the one I had to make when I bought my first Rolex. I went with the SD because it was beefier.

If you think you prefer slimmer, go with the Sub.

Of course, there's no rule that says this has to be your last watch purchase forever...

What else is in your collection right now?

Robb · 16 January 2008, 04:32 AM

If you already have the SD then I would stick with it!!

SEA DWELLER

anything else is less

DC watchman · 16 January 2008, 08:54 AM

SD. I need to look at the date, although the 14060M is a beautiful watch.

Are you sure it is bulk or boredom that is pushing this decision???
