214270 vs 14060m
Hey guys I'm in need of advice, I understand that there are already a few posts between the 39mm explorer i and the sub ND hopefully if I could explain why I'm having a hard time choosing I could get answers that could help me choose (if that even made any sense... haha)
I've had my eye on the Explorer I 36mm 114270 for a while already, but now my local AD said that they've discontinued that model and all they have is the 39mm. I really like how the 36mm fit on my small wrists and how its easy to slip under a shirt cuff (cause I was really looking for a smaller watch as a dress watch without being a datejust... sorry guys i really don't like the cyclops). I tried the 39mm Exp. and somehow it looks a little weird to me, like the dial got bigger but the bracelet and hands stayed the same size. Maybe I could get used to it but I don't want to end up regretting it if I don't get used to it. Does anyone else think the changes they made feel kind of incomplete? Now I'm also looking at the 14060m Sub ND also cause everything seems to be in proportion, Bond pulled it off in a tux, plus its an iconic watch. However, i already have a dive watch (Omega Seamaster Pro Chrono) and it feels kind of redundant to get a Sub and I won't even consider giving up my Seamaster cause I got it from my father prior to my wedding so its got sentimental value for me. Also, the sub is so popular that everyone I know with a rolex has either a DJ or a sub. Plus I worry about the risk of buying a 6k+ watch and have it mistaken for a fake. For all the sub owners out there do people really ever think its something else but an authentic Rolex cause the design is so popular and widely copied? What do you guys suggest? Which one would look better in a suit? And which one would hold more value? The common yet iconic Sub or the rare yet more discreet Explorer? |
