It seems that most folks here prefer the 2 liner, but I'm a rebel and prefer the 4-liner. Probably because that was my first Rolex.

You should buy what you like.

I use to favor the 2 liner....but after seeing it IRL.....it looks a little too clean for me.....like something's missing. So I vote 4 also.

Both are great, but I would take the 4-liner myself. Better balance with the top lettering (including crown).

I prefer the 4-liner with engraved rehaut and random alphanumeric identifier, and the Parachrom Bleu hairspring.

Hey, I just checked the card, mine's a G series also. I noticed that the model # on the card reads only 14060, no 'm' mentioned. Does that mean it is not a modified movement?

Hmmm, I don't know Jack, I'll go check mine. You mean on the warranty card? I can't believe that a late G serial isn't an M.

Mine doesn't show the M on the card either but it does show it as 14060M on the hang tag.

2 liner T<25 is what I've got; any variant is a nice watch. Mine was recently serviced so under a warranty which I doubt it'll ever need. It's currently on a leather NATO and ready to be switched back to the bracelet for the summer.

Half of 4 is a tad more balanced.

So, not only is there the group of Sub purists, there are the two liners, the 'm' crowd, and now the G serialists. Maybe my wife is right, it's only a freakin' watch.
What have I gotten myself in to ?
