Really, is there anything quite as iconic as a Sub No Date? I think not, what with many Rolex tool watches being fed on Steroids it's good to see that they haven't dared mess about with this classic, instantly recognisable watch. My affair with Rolex started in the 70's with a Sub No Date, I then went with a Plexiglass Explorer, that was followed by a Pepsi GMT Master then back to a 36mm Explorer, followed by a 40mm Explorer ll, then I considered going back to an Explorer but the latest incarnation is so big so I decided in Aug last year to go full circle and return to a 114060 Ceramic 40mm Sub No Date, I couldn't be more pleased and I am sure you will be thrilled with your Sub. I hope that by reading this I can save you a journey through the various models and I sincerely hope your watch gives you many years of pleasure. They don't get any better, believe me.
