41mm Submariner Poll

Curious to poll the masses, apologies if this has been asked before and I failed to find it upon searching.

Assuming that you do not own one of these already, which 41mm submariner would you choose at MSRP, speculative values notwithstanding (with intent to keep indefinitely)?

Cheers!

**EDIT: added a key with my best attempt at succinctly describing features for each model no.**

124060 = no date
126610LV = date with green bezel
126610LN = date
126619LB = white gold blue bezel
126613LB = two-tone (YG/Steel) with blue bezel/dial
126618LB = solid YG with blue bezel/dial
126618LN = solid YG with black bezel/dial
126613LN = two-tone (YG/steel) with black bezel/dial

I had my pick of the litter (admittedly, I'm not a fan of or in the market for PM).

I voted with my wallet

Haha apologies for that, I resorted to the model numbers to ensure total clarity in the poll but it is admittedly an eye-sore. Hopefully they're arranged somewhat logically at least.

I could see adding a 124060.

Well done not using all the nicknames!

Since your poll didn't require that I could actually PAY for my choice, I went with 126618LN. :-)

All new Submariners are great watches but I prefer the old 16610. I have no desire to update perfection.

Love it! The LV ranks very highly for me.

Haha thank you! I added the descriptive/defining features in my first post to aid in selection for those less familiar with the model number(s). I tend to avoid using nicknames for fear it would cause confusion, if nothing else. Great choice !

Apologies, I added a key with the descriptive features to help hopefully!

Totally understandable! 16610s are hard to beat!

I don't feel the need to update my 5-digit 14060, but I΄d buy the 124060 at MSRP if I needed to replace it (and could find one). No-date is the way to go for me!

I had a pick between any SS (ND, LN, and LV) and went with the LV. It was an easy choice.

I voted no-date as I'm waiting for a text (hopefully in a week or so) from my AD for one of these. I will follow-up if any success.

Great choice! The added functionality of the date is definitely convenient.

That's the ultimate combo! I prefer the 126610LV to the 16610LV aesthetically, but the 14060M is something special.

Good choice, probably would be my pick of the three too!

Fingers crossed that opportunity comes for you! Post pics if/when it happens!

Thanks to everyone for the votes so far, really interesting to see how the numbers are stacking up.

I have a GMT LN but would be happy to get this too. It’s simply the best dive watch in the world.
