It is amazing to me how little the no-date sub has changed over the years, and your picture just proves it. I guess that is a FACT

Yes,
but not necessarily better! The new DD is too big for me, elegance has gone, but that's only my personal opinion. Tom |

You should have a pic of the deepsea next to it...
:( Too bad your sub dial and hands were redone/don't match. |
