Just picked up a ND sub

Been writing of late about my search for a BLNR and LVc. Was offered a BB58 but didn’t feel right and I chickened out.

Yesterday I decided to pick up a lightly used 114060. I’m very pleased with it so far and look forward to handing down to my son who is 10.

I guess my quest for the above will have to go on hold until when an AD can find one at list as I can’t stomach the crazy mark ups . uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/58503bb03f63372e012bb3c84c1f2754.jpg[/IMG]

Great watch! Just as good as a BLNR or LVC in my opinion. In some aspects even better.

Congratulations. A true classic and a beautiful and well balance watch. I have owned several over the years and have always loved them. I have a 7.5-7.75 inch wrist and when the SD43 came out I changed up. I miss the ND but somewhat redundant for me. Enjoy.

Congratulations, Mark. That will be an awesome heirloom to pass on. My 20 year old son told me that he has dibs on my Smurf. He's gonna have to wait.

Awesome piece congrats, that’s definitely gonna be my next pick up. I’ve got a Sub date and Blnr but the no date has been calling me. Enjoy the journey
