Hello,
I want to buy a new Rolex Submariner..which one would you choose as daily rocker??

Thank you

Etschell · 22 January 2018, 05:22 AM

james bond, sean, never wore a date. it is that simple.

Gerardus · 22 January 2018, 05:26 AM

If you do not need or use the "date function" then the ND is the one!

dba · 22 January 2018, 05:27 AM

Neither actually, a 16610 would be best.

hbombkid · 22 January 2018, 05:33 AM

Go with the date. Yep I know can easily look at your phone etc. Weird always had a date watch then I did not when I had a Panerai and was very surprised I missed the date. Now I having a Sub C date I do catch myself looking at the date.

FTX I · 22 January 2018, 05:41 AM

114060 got my vote but I love both and wear them frequently.

jimcameron · 22 January 2018, 05:42 AM

16800

brandrea · 22 January 2018, 05:42 AM

For a daily, I’d need the date

masterdinh · 22 January 2018, 05:44 AM

Date all day! I want a 116610LN so bad.

You’ll use the date function more than you think.

As you get older the date function becomes superfluous, as I can't read the date on my datejust anymore without fumbling about looking for my readers, and by the time I've found them, I've worked out what date it is anyway. The joys of getting old!

Agree or a 14060

Brny11 · 22 January 2018, 05:50 AM

116610ln is the perfect watch. In a few months I went from 114060 to 214270 and finally ended up with 116610. I can say this is the first time I am happy. I also believe the modern iterations are superior to the 16610 in nearly every way other then the 16610 wears lighter. However, the 116610 has the glide lock with is amazing.

Easy decision to me. If you have multiple watches, 114060 is nice. As a daily, go 116610. Of course, just one opinion.

No date looks so clean, its what a tool watch was meant to begin my opinion. Spartan, and does exactly what it was intended to do: tell the time....

I prefer a date feature. So 116610.

ckaynyc · 22 January 2018, 08:46 AM

After having my Sub Date for 6 months, can’t go without the function. ND looks awesome and symmetrical but the Date is very functional.

lecorsaire · 22 January 2018, 09:00 AM

The NDs look better due to the cleaner dial, but the Dates are more practical. I rely on it daily. The only watch I would make the exception on is the Daytona. If you already have a Rolex with date then the 114060 is fine.

BNA/LION · 22 January 2018, 09:02 AM

116610 LN

Unless you don't care for the date...

mattonthewater · 22 January 2018, 09:06 AM

14060. Not a fan of the maxi case.

Wrist Watcher · 22 January 2018, 09:07 AM

I had the 116610LN for about five years and recently picked up the 114060. I prefer the 114060. It just looks better with the clean and symmetrical dial.

If you can't remember the date, pick up your cell phone and there it is. And I much prefer the six digit models over the previous versions.

sco · 22 January 2018, 09:10 AM

I love / need the date. So 116610 for me...

AboutTime · 22 January 2018, 09:16 AM

I would choose the 114060 but I'm an old retired guy and seldom need to know the date.

Seaswirl · 22 January 2018, 09:17 AM

I prefer a date on my Sub as I have several watches without.

datejust24 · 22 January 2018, 09:20 AM

Agree that the 14060M is the way to go...the maxi case just doesn’t do it for me

doboy007 · 22 January 2018, 09:26 AM

I want a ND badly. I wish both LVc and BLNR have no date :)

superdog · 22 January 2018, 10:09 AM

for a sub, I prefer no date.
