Incoming - The daily driver!

DavidSW strikes again!

The quick backstory ... I wanted to add a "do-everything" piece to my collection. Something comfortable, durable, timeless style ... I wanted something I could wear to my office or to the beach and not have to think twice about it.

My YMII is more of a weekend watch for me and my Chronomat is a little too much bling for daily wear. I do wear my PAM a lot (it's my other daily go-to) but it's not small and I have to wear it on rubber or leather.

I originally thought I wanted to get a Tudor BB Black but after trying one on it wasn't really much of a contest against the 114060. The style is great and the dial is beautiful but the bracelet/clasp, bezel, feel of the crown/winding mechanism all made the jump to the Sub that much more justifiable. The deep black dial, the simplistic symmetry, what a great watch!

New with stickers, the 5 year warranty, and a great deal from David sealed the deal!


Without further ado ...

Had it shipped to my office but wanted to wait until I got home to open it! What a long Friday ...













Sized and ready to go!

Looks great on your wrist OP. I love the perfection in symmetry. These modern renditions of the classics really come alive.
