I tried on a dozen models, and the second I put the 114060 on my wrist, I truly heard the singing and that was that.

You so guessed it and you also contributed to the inspiration.
The 114060 is an absolute, masterful design of art, form and function. It's almost spiritual. This piece has a soul. I can't believe how good it looks and feels on my wrist right now. I just sized the bracelet... The guide lock is amazing. |

Thanks, everyone! I absolutely adorn the piece. Can't stop gazing at it.
Before this thread becomes officially dead, one last "decent" photo of my new Submariner ND with my Son's Playmobil mates.

It's a gorgeous piece. I wore it until this morning and switched to my Black Bay before heading to work. I thought about the Sub all day. Couldn't wait to get home and put it back on. I told my wife, I don't think I can take it off. It's a full-time piece. It's that stunning.
