:che ers:

I agree, the Sub ND looks cleaner/simpler and if you like that look, its a big plus over the Sub Dates. I am looking at maybe getting an older model (a 14060) through a private sale myself

Keep in mind though that there may be minor differences in size.

The 16610 is always a great first. The LV isn't a bad choice either. The 16610 was my first. Even though I have more than just one, I still wear my first the most.

While I think JJ is great and a real plus for all of us .....Don't over look the Sea-Dweller it you come across a good deal!

14060 - Simple, reliable, great deal for the money.

Get the SUB DATE Black. It's really the watch to have. Cheers!

When I bought my first Rolex, I knew exactly which one I wanted, the 16610. I love it and wouldn't trade it for anything. Simplistic and understated beauty with an amazing history to boot.

Just bought a 16610 Sub - Date

therolexguy · 5 April 2009, 03:38 AM

I agree with JJ. The SS Sub w/date is awesome. Always has been, always will be. You will never regret that purchase. Then, as your collection grows (and I can tell from your post that it will, if fact, grow) you can add other Subs.......or whatever you want. Good luck and don't forget to post pictures next week when you get it.

I guess that I haven't seen a sub yet that I didn't like, but for purity of design, I have to go with a 5513 like this 40 year old:
