Interesting order you placed those in.

So subtle and so huge at the same time :love:

For the comedians, the new one is on the right ;)

Ohhh, I see it now. They made the lugs 0.5mm thinner. I guess the hype was justified after all ;)

In Rolex world it’s huge no doubt. Other brands no one would notice. Like For Omega, where every year Speedy or Seamaster or Planet Ocean looks completely different or rolls out some ass clown variant, no one would notice slimmer lugs ;)

Perfect sub I’ve been wanting. So small but the right differences for the right upgrade to the squared subc.

Art, you know I kid. Enjoy your new Rolex when you get it. Just remember to at least buy it dinner after you lick it's lugs.

That’s funny. The old Tudor subs I had all had twinlock.

At least this release has been entertaining for the memes on IG.

I'm so depressed that my 114060 has become obsolete...

Butthurt Kermit owners :lol:

Nice minor improvements, I wasn’t a fan of the wide lugs. The size increase is nice (assuming its in the case and bezel, dial is probably the same size). Except for the 21mm lugs, I like it... will wear the same as the old watch. I like the model with the green bezel a lot. The prices posted in this thread are ludicrous for what the watch is (a three hander dive watch), in my opinion.

Congrats to everyone who likes it :cheer:

New case, new movement. Maybe the exterior changes are subtle, but they will probably address a lot of the maxi-case complaints. Assuming the issues with the 3235 have been resolved, it's nice to get some upgraded tech. And I do like the green bezel/black dial variant.

But I'm not a buyer unless I win the lottery.

All of this.

Kermit is nice but I’d have to dissolve my entire collection.

There is mention of improvements to the bracelet on the Subs.

It'd be nice if they gave them DSSD clasp, but no biggie

The Subs look better and I'm glad that Rolex finally acknowledge that the green on green LV was butt ugly. Now maybe the Rolex fanbois will figure it out that a dull ugly green ceramic bezel juxtaposed with a lush green dial sucks.

I can't believe I'm considering buying a Rolex.

If I can even find an AD that can get one.

As suspected, the crown is Triplock and it was a misprint online. It’s been corrected.
