If you had to pick one SubC, SubC Date, or SDC and why - poll attached.

Let's see what our members come up with - moderators please help set up a poll if possible. I tried.

Thanks - Joe

I picked Sub C because:
- it was my first
- cleanest aesthetic
- heritage

I can't really decide between the 114060 and 116610LN. These two are my favorite watches, but I had to vote and Sub-C was my choice.

Sub C, it's clean and classic, to me it's literally perfect, a true modern classic

Sub for sure, because I already have one (non C, but I'm not changing) I like the clean look of the dial.

For me, the Sub takes the cake for the glossy black dial, clean bezel, lack of cyclops and 12.5mm profile.

SDc: less popular (see poll), classic case portions, nice heft on the wrist, and no cyclops.

Chaps

I prefer the look of the pre ceramic, it just looks less blingy than the ceramic.

Sub-c Date- I like the classic Rolex look with the cyclops and find the date feature is very nice to have. Since I don't want an all black watch, you can also get it in different colors.

I have a SubC and it is going next week for a SDc. The Sub has lugs that I cannot get on with as the case is too square where the SDc looks like as the non ceramic does and better proportioned.

tough one

I prefer the aesthetics of the 114060 but I really do use the date often times multiple times a day. I use the date function far more than a chrono or GMT function. The combo of the date, WR, bulletproof case and general all round good looks, make the Sub date unbeatable for a daily wear

Now, the LN vs. LV.......that's another thread!!
