Icon14 FedEx arrived with my new...

...Sub C 116610LN (Random). I love, love, love the Glidelock--GREAT improvement over my older Subs. Got rid of the Daytona SS for this one and couldn't be happier.

Yup, the old subs don't even come close to the quality of the new, they are in a whole new class now. Huge congrats!

I think I would prefer to wear a SubC than a Daytona...but then again its great to have the option of wearing a Daytona now and then.

However if I had to choose a single watch between the two the SubC would win because of the maxi dial and date feature. I also find the case of the SubC more comfortable than the GMTIIC.

The fine adjustment on the SubC bracelet is a real winner too

Congrats.

I don't understand why Rolex doesn't add the date feature to the Daytona. The Tudor chronographs have it, so it can be done.

I like the black ceramic bezel inserts. Not a fan of the blue.
