My New 114060 ND SUB C
I know this has been reviewed before but here is my $.02.
I have poor vision and have been unable to read almost any watch. When I saw the 114060 ND SUB, I said that is it. I got it a week ago Monday. I love it. I think the subtle differences from the old model are great. I can see all the hour markers and the hands just fine. I don't need the cyclops and date because I can't see it. The clean face is great. The new bracelet is fantastic. I had three links removed (6.5 wrist) two from the twelve side and one from the six. I made a small adjustment with the Glidelock clasp and the fit is perfect. The watch sits square on the center of my wrist and the clasp is centered on the bottom of my wrist. The blume lume is incredible. Best of any Rolex I ever owned. I have worn Rolex sport watches for 35 years and this is hands down the best. Very comfortable. However if you do not want anyone to know what you are wearing, you might want another watch. This one screams ROLEX. For a collection or your everyday watch, this is a must have. Unless you are are a race car driver, or time sporting events like horse racing, I don't need the Daytona with extra second hand, sub dials, push buttons, and hands that I can't read. I sold mine. |

Thank you one and all for the comments! I agree it is the perfect watch for me and could not be happier with it. There is nothing that I don't like about it.

Just perfect, it combines all the things we want, lack of cyclops and date give the dial and glass the perfect balance and let you truly see the face in all its glory. A absolutley timeless classic
