Incoming: Third times a charm!
I have a sickness. For whatever reason I flipped a 114060 Sub not once but twice... well I have finally added one back to the collection and it is not going anywhere!
Note to mods: If for whatever reason this watch gets flipped please ban me  Welcome home:

Awesome. It'd be tough for me to flip a classic like this.

I'm glad you got your baby back! I believe it wasn't the actual watch but the timing in which you had it.
Timing is crucial.

I've flipped a ceramic subc three times as well, but from date to no date to green... but to do it over the same exact watch is just wrong.

Such a clean and classic reference. I had one that I flipped to grab my BLNR. I added an LV to the fold as well and still miss the 114060.

Not to ruin the party BUT I've rebought the same watch on 4 different pieces. All 4 of them were later flipped again. There's a reason you parted ways in the first place. HOWEVER, this might be different..... but I doubt it. Enjoy it for now and IF you flip it, don't tell us so you won't get banned.

Welcome back man! I too flipped it once, but as soon as I got it back I realized it's not going anywhere (unless of course I sell the used one I have now and buy a brand new one lol.)

Good decision but I feel left out.
I only bought mine once. Enjoy wearing it once again.
