Pulled the trigger today on the ND Sub Ceramic

I feel like I did nothing the past few weeks looking at pictures and comparing all submarine models. But in the end I'm happy with the 114060, the maxi dial really pops, the glide lock strap is a just lovely to get a good fit. I've always been partial to classic styled watches with leather straps but it feels natural already

Quick cell phone wrist picture and a side by side shot next to my first mechanical watch.

Thanks and I did! I dropped by an AD along with window shopping ALS, IWC, Panerai, JLC, and VC as well. Rolex AD was super friendly and let me try on the SD4K and the TT Gold/Black Sub. The maxi case sits on my wrist with juuuust enough of a buffer on both sides, super stoked
