3 weeks later… not connecting with my Submariner Date - moving on

[trailblazer68]

I guess thats the reason i prefer SD and exp (aka exp1) than sub and gmt, its not uncommon to notice sub and gmt within the same day..its a lousy feeling imo to pick something from the dresser thinking its special and next moment u see someone else wearing the exact ones.

I cant deny Sub and GMT are well-made watches but imo i prefer the more flavorful 5 digit ones simply due to the slimmer and lesser than bold 24hr bezel.

I see a lot of blue jeans. I doesn't cause me any angst.

when it's warm out there are weeks where i see at least one sub a day. when i went to vegas i saw 10 bluesys in the span of 4 days. maybe saying they're everywhere is exaggerating but they're definitely common. funny enough, i see considerably less datejusts

subs are like bmw m3s imo, they're not everywhere but you see them often

You know since this post I’ve started looking into moving my 126610LN.

It made me réalise some faults that are getting more and more annoying.

However it’s one of the best summer watch you can have. I surf routinely with it in summer and I would not dare do it with another.

what faults are you noticing? I came across the same situation over the pass couple of weeks.

All 11 series subs should be banished and eliminated.
Unless you’re a Hulk (or Smurf). Then you’re ok.

Had a submariner, sold it, just looked too...boring. I prefer a bit more character in the dials. I enjoy the gmts and daytonas much better.

I get the OP. Never warmed up to the looks of Rolex dive watches and GMTs since I started seeing them a lot on colleagues' wrists some 25 years ago. And I don't care if every other guy has one or not. The design is just not for me.
