Help me decide between these two subs??
I'm considering the purchase of one of these two subs.
Yes, I know they are very different and I can only afford one of them. Truthfully, I like them both about equally and it doesn't bother me that the TT is a little more bling than the understated SS watch. What it comes down to, for me, is which represents the best value based on their state, condition, possible future resale, etc. The watch is complement my silver dial 36mm DJ as a nearly-every day carry watch. I want it to work equally well on the weekend, or under a suit cuff when I don't want the DJ on my wrist. Both watches are selling for almost the same money (the stainless one is slightly more expensive) The two-tone Submariner is from 1991, ref 16613, and has the box and papers, including the original bill of sale dated 1993. Last serviced at RSC in July 2019 and unworn since then. I don't know what, if anything has been changed on the watch, or whether 1993 is vintage enough for changed parts to even matter (?) The steel Submariner is from 2004, ref 14060, and has no box or paperwork. Supposedly it's never been serviced and is likely due for one. Neither watch has appreciable bracelet stretch that I could tell. Any advice or input is appreciated. This is the only pic I have, though I do have a much higher resolution copy I can look at if needed (too large to post here). |
