I am thinking to add a classic simple piece for weekends.
Choice is in between the blind sub 14060M 2 liner and the Explorer I 214270 t-Rex.

Opens to any blind sub 2/4 liner and ExpI t-Rex / lume 3-6-9
I wonder which gets more love here on TRF.

Rocco21 · 28 October 2016, 06:03 AM

I would go sub 4 liner.

jmolsberg · 28 October 2016, 06:05 AM

Both would be great

goldenpauls · 28 October 2016, 06:06 AM

Sub 14060M 2 liner ...........

Old Geezer · 28 October 2016, 06:06 AM

sub....classic and simple.

The Libertine · 28 October 2016, 06:09 AM

Either one would work; however, as they are completely different in style and appearance, really depends on which one you like more.

KrismanX · 28 October 2016, 06:09 AM

You answered in posing your question! Simple, classic. Sub. Either will be AMAZING to own; but I am particular to the quintessential class of a Submariner. 2-liner

When I have my way, I'm adding a 5513 bubble Mk1

Explorer is beautiful

mjclark32 · 28 October 2016, 06:37 AM

11-10 in favor of sub as of right now (I just voted sub)

Gerry62 · 28 October 2016, 07:07 AM

Submariner

Thuilln · 28 October 2016, 07:51 AM

The 214270 was my first Rolex, and the 14060M my second; I prefer the Sub.
Maybe if I had a 36mm Explorer it would be different, but I feel 39mm is too big for that watch.

toneafficianado · 28 October 2016, 08:04 AM

I voted for the sub as I have a 14060M. Love it.
It could easily be an "only" Rolex.
Not sure what you mean by "blind" sub. Do you mean the 2 liner?

sea-dweller · 28 October 2016, 08:23 AM

Either!

ryansoulsit · 28 October 2016, 08:43 AM

Explorer please.

I think he means Lonely as it has No Date.

Get the short handed Explorer so your weekends look longer! :p

(joking aside, both beautiful watches. Sub gives you the rotating bezel that you can use to time parking meters, etc., when doing weekend things.)

Speed · 28 October 2016, 09:56 AM

I love no date watches for weekends.

cyclops means one eye. so if it has no eyes then its blind

T-rex because the new 214270 has longer arms and T-rex have small arms :D

I chose the sub but honestly its 51/49.

[QUOTE=japenney;7103360]cyclops means one eye. so if it has no eyes then its blind

I know those who can see, yet they are still blind! (Thought I'd get philosophical)lol

Dr. Robert · 28 October 2016, 11:14 AM

I vote for the explorer you can wear it casual or dress.
