Here’s a picture of my “core collection” that I wear in rotation often. The other is my expanded collection, you’ll see a few pieces that are there but I pretty much never wear them. And yep, I have the Explorer I covered. What I really want is the YM RLX. Maybe I’ll have to wait a few years for it… I’m going to try on the subs next week and compare with my BLNR in the flesh and on the wrist. Interesting conversation. I’m a watch guy and I can probably name at least 10 differences between the BLNR and the Sub, and I can easily spot the difference between the two from across the room on someone’s wrist. But yes I also see all the similarities and I want diversity (plus a reason to really grab one piece over another when deciding what to wear). |

Looking at your collection it seems you tend towards moderately sized pieces. I see you have a BB58 - this in itself nicely complements the Batgirl in my opinion. You will find the modern Sub wears larger than your BLNR on Jubilee so be prepared for that.

I have a 116610LN and a 126710BLNR (both on Oyster) and I still notice plenty of differences between the two. I wouldn’t sell either.
I would personally opt for the no date Sub (or the LV if you already have black dial options) to add further differences. |

I have asked myself the same question. Still wrestling with this.

A sub is a classic and always a worthy addition My BLNR is on Jubilee so it does differentiate it, a lot |
