Actually me, too.
I think a lot of the love for the sub is the overall hype about Rolex.
And clearly the sub is a great watch. But so is the SMP.
For me, I find the SMP to be better. It fits better, is less bulky, has nicely curved lugs and really provides all of the exact same functions of a sub. The build quality is just as good as well.
The only difference might be that the SMP is not an in-house movement. That means nothing to me. If it tells the proper time, I am all for it no matter where the movement comes from.
And oh yeah, I have the blue and the black SMP for just about the same price as a date sub.
