[@Leftystrat]

Just bought one. The 114060.Love it. The maxi case is sooo comfortable compared to the 5 digit ones . Tried on the new one but found the dimensions better in the 114060 with a 7”5 inch wrist. Weird sizing on the newbie

[@blueshirtbuddah1665]

A great comparison video Guy! Thanks as always.

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks Bruce, glad you liked it.

[@martinkaplan1805]

Great, thorough and well balanced review. Thanks!

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks for watching!

[@mpikers]

Thanks for making this video, best comparison I've seen of the old and new subs. I have a 114060 and I had the chance to try a 124060 last weekend. I agree with almost everything you mentioned in your video. Overall, the changes are VERY subtle. I like the slimmer lugs but I'm not a fan of the wider bracelet and larger clasp on my 6.5" wrist. Also, shout out to DavidSW. I traded in a watch with them last month and it was a seamless process. I'd happily work with them again.

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks for watching! So you decided to keep the 114060 then?

[@mpikers]

@@JustBlueFish Yup, sticking with the 114060 for now. I like the new one and I probably would have picked it up if I didn't already have a sub but there just wasn't enough there for me to "upgrade". The 114060 is almost 3 years old and it still keeps nearly perfect time (+2 secs over a two week period). For me, the only changes I care about are 70hr power reserve (which actually isn't that big of a deal because I usually rotate through my watches) and the slimmer lugs. But I REALLY didn't care for the larger bracelet and clasp of the 124060 ( have a flat 6.5" wrist), if felt more like a cuff than a bracelet. I know we're talking millimeters here but when you have a small wrist, they make a big difference. That's what ultimately made me stick with the 114060.

[@JustBlueFish]

Makes sense, I’ll be sticking with my prior generation model for a while as well.

[@erwinleen4321]

Another quality review from you, thanx mate. grts from Belgium.

[@MannyZ28]

Excellent video Sir! I agree with just about everything you said in the video. I have a 2019 Bluesy which I bought brand new in August of 2019, and I will most likely trade it in at my AD for the new model. I love the white writing on the dial replacing the gold for a nicer contrast, I love the new proportions of the watch and the wider bracelet. While I really like my current watch, to me at least, Rolex fixed everything that was "wrong" with the old model. Thanks for the great video and keep up the good work!

Another AMAZING review, thanks for not using any background music. May I ask which camera (and lens) you are using?

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks buddy. I use a Canon EOS R and a 24-70mm L lens, and an 85mm macro lens for a few close up shots. But honestly the lighting is more important, and a bit of color correction and grading in premier while editing. For lights I use an Aputure 120D as a main light, and an Aputure Tri-8 for a second fill light.

[@anthonystevens8683]

A very comprehensive 1st time review Guy, you can only make a 1st impression once. I pretty much agree with most of your observations and comparisons between this and the last model. I'm a symmetry nut so needless to say I'm not the biggest fan of the date and cyclops as to me it just keeps drawing my eye to the date when I look at the face. Don't get me wrong I don't dislike the date version I just prefer the one without. I was on the AD list for the 11 series but last September it was replaced by the new 41mm version, I then registered interest for the new one and ultimately got the call that a no date sub 124060 would be available if I was still interested. The outcome of that is obvious and to my mind money well spent. The bezel action is a significant step above any other diver watch I've owned, the finish is superb for the price as well. The biggest surprise was that this watch is so comfortable on the wrist and in my mind actually wears smaller than the dimensions suggest. Now, If I'd got the call earlier with the 11 series would I consider changing (I'll not call it an upgrade) to the newer version? Probably not, the extended power reserve is nice but not a deal breaker as my no date version does not need the date resetting if not worn for a few days, a quick wind and a twist of the crown and all is well. From a clasp perspective the glidelock is great but if I'm honest I prefer the push button extension on the Omega Seamaster more but that is really picking at nits. Thanks again Guy for a great review.

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks for watching and for the feedback Anthony I appreciate it. I tend to be a little obsessive about symmetry as well actually, but weirdly the date on the Sub doesn’t bother me. Dials with offset power reserve indicators and sub dials tend to bother me tho. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@anthonystevens8683]

@@JustBlueFish I agree with you on offset sub dials as they just off balance the dial. I came close to a purchase of a Grand Seiko Snowflake with gold markers last Christmas but although I loved the step less seconds I had trouble looking past that power reserve indicator. I guess it's just as well as I recently got the call for my Oyster Perpetual 124300 silver dial for a lower cost. If I'd purchased the GS it would probably have very little wrist time now that I have the OP. The OP has perfect symmetry and the same 3230 movement as my sub. I guess I was very fortunate on this occasion.

[@JustBlueFish]

Awesome, I’d take the OP over a Snowflake as well, not that the Snowflake is bad I do like it. But design wise, the power reserve isn’t the best look and the OP is a simple but great design.

[@simonwright6882]

Hi Guy, in your opinion do you think the new model will work on a 6.5 inch wrist?

[@JustBlueFish]

Well, the lug to lug is 48mm which probably would work fine but it will be a bigger watch. If you like some wrist presence sure.

[@Teymurphell2]

Have both 116610ln and 126610ln. AT first could'nt dicide which on I like better. The more I look into it, I do prefer 41mm Submariner. The dail looks more legible and bigger. Nicer more elegant lugs. Does'nt look as blocky looking. I have an 8 inch wrist, Before I had to ware my 40mm sub loose on my wrist because bracelet was not wide enough, now it fills in perfectly.

Oh, and the bracelet taper is so much better…..👍. The 32 series movement issues were and are reported but not as significant as other new issues movements always seem to have that pop up.

Why crystal glass on 126610 pops out more out of the watch than on 116610, the difference between them is huge? On 116610 it is almost whole inside, while on 126610 it is a couple of mm out of the bazel

[@chi-towncalifornia5916]

The new Sub is only 0.3mm wider than the 116610, so it really comes down to the bracelet widening.

He bracelet does make most of the difference for sure.

[@jtwu8931]

The new movement has a much improved reserve time

[@JustBlueFish]

I don’t think you answered this question definitively, Would you upgrade a pre- ceramic 16610 to the new 126610? That’s my current dilemma.

[@JustBlueFish]

Assuming you like/want the new model I’d say this. Given current prices and availability, no I wouldn’t. If at some point the hype relaxes and availability becomes normalized, I would upgrade sure.

[@ron74555]

Depends on wrist size. On my 6.75 in wrist, the pre ceramic wears much better. I found the new 41 to be a bit too big. If you have a 7 in wrist or above, the 41 is the clear winner in my eyes.

[@qd6qIvV]

I agree the 116610 is a great watch - But make no mistake, the change in proportions of the 126610 are improvements/corrections to the previous model. The changes are subtle but the transition from case to bracelet is noticeably better with the new sub, there is much more flow to the watch...Great review

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks for watching buddy!

[@Agent-vj3ns]

True. The wider bracelet help to more evenly distribute the case weight too.

[@Agent-vj3ns]

I there a reason they don't drill the lug holes?

[@Tonysoprano497]

Own both and of course both are fine watches . I do like the changes . Wasn’t sure about 21mm bracelet when first announced but the extra mil I feel gives it a little more uniformed look . The bracelet also just makes it a little more planted on wrist. Although it has to be said the 40mm is also a good wearing watch but the 41mm is fantastic wearing ..

[@JustBlueFish]

Ya the new model is very nice, I like it, it feels like it's just a bit better in terms but the design. But I'm happy with mine and will sit on it for a while with no regrets.

[@johnthomas424]

The last generation is with the ceramic bezel started from and the maxi case. However, they have discontinued that so it is a rare commodity. I have the 116613LB which I love and also I have the new 126610LN which I also adore. They are both Keepers in its own rights. Who would agree???

[@AcmeRocket]

I would strongly disagree that it is a rare commodity. There are millions in circulation. It's quite possibly the least rare luxury watch in history. Kind of the opposife of rare.

[@theenavybluemonster]

21mm lug width is a turn off for those who like to change straps. Even though the bracelet is great, it’s nice to change things up.

[@navegandolejanooriente6268]

I own the 114060 and 124060 (finally after a 2 year waiting list), 114060/116610 wears a little more comfortable than the new one but I have 6.7' wrist so take that into consideration. On a side note, the great thing about the no date Sub is no one ever ask me about it, unlike owning date Submariner or GMT where I get a lot of comments about the watch. Just something to think about.

[@WatchGeek]

Great review as usual!! I went to an AD to try one on, and on my smallish wrist it somehow sits better than the older supercase model. I think they made subtle changes but ones that make it better. The longer minute hand that now finally reaches the markers, the thicker hour hand that now looks more cohesive with the minute hand and the slimmer lugs just make it more streamlined compared to the "boxy" feel the supercase gave me. It is the first Submariner I would like to get

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks buddy, glad you had time to check it out. The new streamlined profile on this one is definitely a move in the right direction, but at least for me, the new slightly bigger bracelet does make it feel a bit bulkier - not that it’s significant or necessarily even bad.

[@unwhack]

I wish they would size down the whole thing, like pre ceramic proportions with a ceramic bezel. Or introduce a smaller line like Tudor. I love my maxi case sub, but in all honesty it looks very large on my and most people’s wrists and the whole big watch trend seems to easy off a bit in the last years, with a lot of sub 40mm divers showing up on the market.

[@DarthJabba504]

The biggest difference to me is the larger hands with more lume. Big functional difference for me.

Regrettably selling my 116610LN as I picked up a 124060, however I do think the last gen has more character and fits better on my wrist, and is even more elegant despite the wider lugs.

Hour hand seems much beefier on the new model

[@4034miguel]

Of course it is just my opinion: I think 4omm is the best size for all wrist size. In my particular case, it is the maximum I can wear (small wrist here). Another consideration is the design: I tried different watches of 41mm and while some looked big others give the impression that they are smaller. But knowing that a watch is 40mm, I am sure it will fit me perfectly. Thanks for a great review.

Just sold my 114060, and waiting on the 124060 from the AD. I think Rolex basically fixed everything that was wrong with the submariner. By the way, I would stay away from Davidsw if you’re trying to sell a watch. They offered me WAY less money than other dealers for my watch. They don’t want to pay fair prices, but their prices for their watches are insane. Definitely better dealers to do business with

Congrats on the new Sub hope you enjoy it. That will be an exciting new arrival. Regarding DSW I sold them my Explorer 39 a while back and was very happy with the transaction, went super smoothly and the price was good. They didn’t know who I was or anything, but it went great.

What an absolute mistake lmao

[@whereRbearsTeeth]

@@ChromeXuGames why?

[@jimmyg8656]

where is a good place to sell a Rolex? I have a 114270 M- series I`m interested in selling to get this Sub

[@JustBlueFish]

You can sell directly to DavidSW, Exquisite Timepieces, or any other reputable watch dealer. While you won't get top dollar you will get a secure and hassle free transaction. If you need to get top dollar, you accept risk, but places like Chrono24.com are watch selling marketplaces.

[@leeonr]

is the submariner any more water resistance than explorer?

[@JustBlueFish]

Yes, a lot more. The explorer is only 100m WR. The Submariner is 300m.

[@leeonr]

@@JustBlueFish i had to ask because i heard that many watch companies claim their watches are ____m water resistant but are not, and some watches actually do better job at keeping water out than others.

[@moon3173]

the new seems larger bc of the larger lug-lug dimension. Nothing else. true diameters are about the same (different by 0.2-0.3mm)

The go to watch for people who aren’t really into watches.

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks for watching buddy!

[@nathanf1934]

@@japanwatchconnection haha I actually own one now.

[@jimyelverton3062]

I enjoyed your impressions and comparisons to your previous model submariner. I have the new 41mm no-date Sub myself. For me personally, the biggest everyday noticeable improvement Rolex made was adding AR coating to the crystal. I like looking at the dial. It's good being able to clearly see it. I look forward to more of your videos.

[@anthonystevens8683]

I could not agree with you more. My thoughts exactly.

[@JustBlueFish]

Thanks for watching Jim, and for the comment on the FB Page, I replied to your thoughts on the AR crystal over there!

[@bryceraymond7690]

I think the 116610LN looks bigger More proportioned the 126610LN is a swing and a miss, They went backwards on this watch. They made it look like the 1980's with a big bracelet. Sorry not impressed with the 41 still excited about my Rolex Submariner 116610LN. I also purchased mine from the, Authorized Rolex dealer. Thank you for the video Guy.

[@chrisb5986]

I tried to buy a Submariner from DavidSW, but alas I couldn't.

[@JustBlueFish]

Why’s that was he out of stock?
