Yep, sound so crazy I know. But I think blink is not my thing. I do LOVE Bluesy, but I think I choose a brand new Sub ND COSC M serial in around USD 4,239.- than a pre-owned Bluesy D serial in around USD 6,413.-.
And I decide to flip my Expy II D serial in around USD 3,043.-. I dunno is good or bad dicision to flip my Expy. But no flip it no new Sub ND. Please your advice and comments here Gentlemen. Thanks Guys!!!

Best Regards, TR.

P.S: Tomorrow I wanna call my AD and ask 'em to keep it. I wanna buy it as soon as possible. Thanks.

Well i love the ND sub, but remember once the expy II is gone it wont be coming back- so take time and think about the decision

toph · 15 April 2008, 12:10 AM

Why not sell the sub date instead?

mic6 · 15 April 2008, 02:17 AM

Since you already own a SS sub i think you should choose a bluesy now.
Just my opinion

Chappy · 15 April 2008, 01:54 AM

congrats on your choice , flip it and grab the ND COSC , i'm hearing on this forum that they may get hard to find .... I love mine and give it great scores for style ... bondlike style that is ....

briantheartist · 15 April 2008, 02:08 AM

Personally I wouldn't trade in the explorer II. With all the makeovers could you even imagine what they have planned for an update to that model? I think they will comletely redo it making the current model worth holding on to.

Norm · 15 April 2008, 02:18 AM

Congratulations on your decision. You certainly did your due diligence by surveying some of the best Rolex experts I've ever seen here on TRF so enjoy your new watch with no regrets.

Norm

SPACE-DWELLER · 15 April 2008, 05:04 AM

I think you made an excellent choice!

It's the last untouched Rolex!

I myself am very tempted at getting one.

Scarface · 17 April 2008, 08:18 AM

I prefer the Cyclops, but - still - great choice

I already have the Subdate, so I go for Sub ND.

boa2 · 15 April 2008, 05:46 AM

Just to help with your decision...

Jimbits76 · 15 April 2008, 06:11 AM

If the economy settles here in the UK, I'm thinking of picking up a preloved 14060. You can get them here for about £1200-£1800. As Bo has said they are untouched and remain the classic Rolex. I'd probably buy one and keep it away until my boy is 18 or 21. I just get the feeling by 2028, the Sub as we know it now will no longer be available BNIB.

I wanna buy a new one, because I wanna keep it for a long time. Maybe I wanna give to my son too someday, who knows? Thanks anyway for all comment.
