Sub LV or Seadweller 4000 on nato anyone

All,
After much soul searching i think i have decided on my next Rolex. I want a dive watch to compliment my S/S DJ, S/S GMTiic and S/S Daytona. I will then have most bases covered with regards tool watches.

I fancy one of the previous generation of divers and have narrowed it down to either the original Sub LV or the Seadweller 4000. I like the idea of having the flexibility of putting on a Nato band for a different look.

Could you post pictures of these two watches on nato's please as well as let me know which you think it better and why given the make up of my current collection.

Thanks all
Nick

I tried my SD on a NATO and IMO it was a bit too top heavy.
I find the Subdate is ok.
Between the two I'd go for the LV if you want to use a NATO or the SD with a bracelet.

ps. The 14060M Sub is excellent on a NATO and I wear one weekdays.
