The Sub is a great watch and at list good value, but they're so widely recognised, relatively common and so in demand that I just can't be arsed with them anymore. I treat my WISdom as a quirky hobby and wearing something that anyone with a bit of cash has/wants takes some of the fun from the ownership and with current used prices and lack of supply I've seen it as a good time to walk away.

Having had my rant, I would recommend that if the OP can keep the Sub for now and try a Panerai (or 2) then do so. I whole heartedly recommend the PAM233 as a first/only Panerai https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/top...ink_source=app

Cheers.
I feel almost the same way. I was 100% Rolex fanboy until I just received my first Panerai. It's opened my eyes to a whole new world, and I've been looking into 233s!

OP - I wouldn't sell the Sub. Definitely add instead.
