a sub is a no brainer, whether it is your first or 100th, IMO.
All the best!

That was my first choice in 2000, a 14060. Still wearing it today, never letting it go.

Can't go wrong with a Sub..

Two liner is two lines of text, 4 liner is four lines of text on the dial below the hands.

A fine choice. My brother just got his first and picked the 14060 two-liner, also. Excellent!
