Best to have both if you really want the other. Save up and give it time.

I had this...




Traded it for this...




Then I went through a "panic attack" and sold off several watches to bank some money, including the DJ II.


After a while, I calmed down and decided to add a Rolex back into the mix...





I am happy to say I currently have my favorite of the three.

I agree with this. Please people!

The NDSubC is one of the greatest watches Rolex has ever made... So much so, when I chose a 10 year anniversary watch with a much larger budget, I chose the NDSubC because I knew it would still love it 20, 30, 40 years from now ..

can't agree more. It's your personal watch decision. You should go with your heart.. not somebody's opinion. like someone just said here, you will have chance to reverse it if/when you want to..

No. I'm afraid you'll regret it later if you do it

I bought the DJII blue sticks for a special milestone. While it is a truly impressive and outstanding watch, it lacked ruggedness and versatility. I ended up buying a SubC to complete the collection a year later and would recommend the same as it rounds off a simple collection. If I had to chose one, I would keep the SubC.

I don't think it's a matter of opinion. They are Rolex's official names for the two watches, as well.

And no, I would not trade my Sub for a DJ II

Good luck!
