Poll: Sub date v Sub no date

Both are popular here, so just a straight up which do you prefer.

No date for me. It will be the one I pick up. If they did a hulk no date I would choose that over the black though.

No date. More balanced and no cyclops.

No date. You don't need to know the date 600 meters under water

I vote for the date, but I agree with others that the no date has a clean look to it. Unfortunately, after looking 1,000,000 pictures of a Sub with date and a cyclops, the most talked about watch in the world, I've been brainwashed into thinking a Sub should have it.

I voted date.
The balance and lines of the ND are flawless though.

I wonder if the poll results are reflective of ownership. Sub Date must outsell by a very wide margin.

I love my No Date, but I do find myself looking down at my wrist for the date when I wear it.

I've always liked the sub w/date. Something about that bubble that makes it everything. Go figure

Thats is my next non date purchase. Love the ceramic. I wore my buddy's 116610 for a few hours yesterday. That ceramic looks so different depending on the lighting. Always changing.
