Hello all my first Rolex was a DJII as a gift from my in-laws as an engagement present. I wore it everyday for a year.

Then I purchased my 114060 Sub and wear it all the time. My DJII is lucky if it gets 5 hours the whole week.

Has anyone else had this happen?

Bought any other watch 1st and then once getting a Sub it's like it's the only watch you own?

I'm crazy about my 114060. I never get tired of it and don't want to wear anything else.

it's such a beauty. I might as well get rid of my others.

My first was a Planet Ocean, a beauty, still love it, but then came my Sub and the Omega started to gather dust.

One month ago I picked up an Explorer I, now the Sub is gathering dust! Such problems.

My first was a 116233 TT. I then bought the Hulk. I now almost have to force myself to where the DJ!

You made a great choice! Go sub!

I wear many of my watches equally. At least for me, there's no preference for the Sub.

KBM · 4 October 2013, 01:49 PM

Yep, the sub does have that effect.

Every new watch gets a honeymoon, at least in my case.

I bought a 14060M in December of 2011 and I have to admit that it dominates my wrist, but the others get their time too and each time I switch to one of the others, it's just like falling in love again. Each is a masterpiece in its own right.

You don't have to worry about having a favorite and when the time comes, you'll find a time that is right to wear the DJII again and you might even develop a pattern for wear, but in the meantime, just enjoy your Sub.

And congratulations. The 114060 is my favorite of the new Sub line.

Exactly! But I have to admit, my 14060 has probably had more wrist duty than any of my other watches.

Get the DeepSea and you'll forget the sub but never forget the DeepSea it's that good

I still think that if there was to only be one, it would be a Sub.

I have the exact same Datejust as yours in your avatar. My only go to watch that is all purpose for everything. I thought about the Sub also but the Datejust has the same movement and durability without the heft. Nice choices.

I've only worn my DOXA and my Seamaster for a couple of hours each after getting my Sub. I still give them a monthy wind and will wear one for an hour or two but that's pretty much it. I feel like I'm cheating when I put another watch on...

Cc1966 · 4 October 2013, 10:51 PM

I put them all in equal footing in rotation, but I have to admit that Sub day has at times become Sub week!
