Onwers of a the 116610 and 114060
If Rolex does announces a slimmed (lug size) Suc C for Basal, will you be selling your maxi case?

rmlovett1 · 23 February 2018, 10:12 PM

Yes I would

Max16013 · 23 February 2018, 10:12 PM

I think most people with the 116610 enjoy their super cases and its probably a large reason they went for that over a 16610.

I’d hold and I’d buy the new version

Danwealth · 23 February 2018, 10:23 PM

I like the slimmer lugs in SD4K and Deepsea; but the lugs in the SD43 is too slim for my taste, I like the maxi lugs in my 114060 much better than the SD43 lugs

*♂️Maxi guy! I have 3 modern day SubC. I don’t think I’d sell/flip any of them. I prefer the fat lugs.

Fat lugs for the win. You want thin lugs buy vintage

beshannon · 23 February 2018, 11:10 PM

At this point I would not be selling anything in Stainless Steel

DoctorA · 23 February 2018, 11:31 PM

I hope they don’t mess with perfection!!

HL65 · 23 February 2018, 11:39 PM

No

jrs146 · 23 February 2018, 11:47 PM

I wouldn’t as I have the LVc and my guess is if there’s a major change to the Sub the LVC gets discontinued or changed. I’d keep the LVc as I really like the watch.

I won't know until I see the next-generation watch.

droptopman · 23 February 2018, 11:52 PM

Most likely no, but I would have to see it in the flesh. Initially did not care for the supercase Subs, but have grown fond of them and wear two regularly.

enjoythemusic · 23 February 2018, 11:55 PM

When on an Everest black strap the larger lugs, etc the 114060 looks just right.

Big, balanced, and solid. JMHO YMMV

AK797 · 23 February 2018, 11:55 PM

11%? What happened to the thin lug mafia?

sco · 24 February 2018, 12:18 AM

I bought my 116610 because I loved it. All of it. It just doesn’t matter what comes out next. I’m not giving mine away....

Seaswirl · 24 February 2018, 12:29 AM

I’d prefer thin lugs, but not enough for me to see my SubC Date. Not enough of a difference for me based on the mock ups.

mailman · 24 February 2018, 12:35 AM

No

dr35mm · 24 February 2018, 12:35 AM

I will keep my Sub C Date. If the lugs and case were an issue for me, I would have gone for the 16610LN.

Just my opinion, but I think they are in the minority both in the general population of people buying Subs as well as on this forum. 🤷*♂️
However the minority may be the most vocal. Hehe

Maxi case is perfect if they made a slimmer case I would not be buying it

thomaswentworth · 24 February 2018, 02:15 AM

I voted to keep my maxi case, but I would look very seriously at getting the first run of a new slimmer version without hesitation. It would be nice to have the first of the slim cg and lugs produced in something like a decade.

This. Especially as I have green sub

FTX I · 24 February 2018, 02:21 AM

No. I like the Maxi Case. Perfect match with bracelet and clasp.

nmb · 24 February 2018, 02:35 AM

I would have thought you would have done a poll for all Subcs,after all it would more than likely affect every variant and would probably start with precious metal versions meaning it could be another two years before it happens with the steel models.
Personally I hated the Subc when it came out but couldn't pass up on the glidelock and chromalight(yes I wear it in bed).I have grown to love the maxi case but certainly would not loose my smurf blue dial for a thinner lugged YG model as it would have the sunburst dial

Easy E · 24 February 2018, 03:32 AM

I like my No Date and LVc as they are.
