SMP vs. Non Ceramic Sub

Went out for dinner with some friends last night and one of them was wearing a SS sub circa 1995, I was wearing my coaxial SMP Bond. We switched watches for a few minutes and he admitted that my SMP felt much more substantial then his sub. He was very impressed with the dial, bracelet and caseback of my SMP.

I know it is not fair to compare a new SMP with an older sub but with a new sub costing twice as much as a SMP, the Bond is a bargain!

yes, the Rolex sub is boring , thats what makes it different , Omega PO at $4K MSRP offers more and cost less , yet because of Rolex AD and Rolex marketing the buyers are willing to pay for it.
Its all about resale value .....
