The date since your Daytona does not have one is my first impression. However, I do prefer the no date overall.

No date - I'm just a "no date" kinda guy.

How important is having the date on your watch? That'll answer it for you.

I like the Sub and that would make a nice no-date duo there.

Keep the no date. More and more I feel the cyclops doesn't belong on the Sub. If you must have the date, might as well get the GMT.

Alternately you could flip both subs into an sd4k, which I would prefer to either.

Everyone's going to give you what they have or like... It really depends on you if you like to have the date on your watch or not. I like having date, hence sell no date!

If the date isn't an issue, keep the ND. Cleaner looking IMO.

I'd keep the date. Unlike so many on the forum, I like the cyclops.

To me, ND is THE watch. Not THE Rolex. But THE watch

Yes! this is a great plan, no date sub, just like the original. Get a GMT with date!
