Rolex Submariner...The Best Watch In The World!

[@detonator2112]

You're absolutely correct. I've owned 15 Rolex watches over the years and various other brands but I always end up wearing my 16610 Submariner most of the time. It's just... well.. perfection. Cheers, keep up the good work!

[@tfh-rw9vb]

Wow, thanks! This is the real me. This is who I am.

[@pauluk2109]

You can’t beat a submariner and I never actually used to like them until I tried one on and felt how solid and well made they are. Dunno what it is but after getting my sub I also have this mentality now that everything I buy should be worth buying, maybe because it’s something that will never be worth less than what I paid for it. It’s actually made me value money more in a strange way. Maybe it’s just me 😂

[@mikec3454]

Picked up my 114060 from the AD last month, what an amazing watch. I owned a mid-90s 14060 several years ago and the new Submariner is in every quantifiable way a better watch.

[@richardperrettwatchmaker]

Agreed. The later models with the 3135 is just such a good versatile and business like watch. The 3135 engine in a submariner case is the best out there. Great video Eric! Richard

[@WorldsStrongestFan]

Just got mine after an 8month wait, the 2020 Sub Date! Still in the safe at the AD in London until I can go pick it up after lockdown😊💪🏼

[@mikemorris5493]

You absolutely right! I think what watch I can use of any time in my life, only sub can go everywhere but only black SS ,better 3135 engine ( very strong ,log time service interval, easy to fix in any watch service.)+ always money with you .

[@WatchEric]

Correct

[@robs.3409]

[@Fredrikwatchesandartwork]

Alan date. I ❤️ my Rolex sub 16613 Bluesy.

[@Soorma1988]

The Date will give it away from 20ft that you are wearing a Rolex. But I mean wear it for yourself not others

[@pauluk2109]

I have a no date 114060 and chose it because I didn’t want the hassle of setting the date if it runs out of charge. The thing is I do find myself looking at it to check the date sometimes so I’m considering getting a sub date in the future as I miss not having it, something I didn’t anticipate. Saying that though, the sub no date is definitely a nicer looking and more symmetrical watch.

[@walkerb1734]

My only issue with the Sub is that it seems everyone owns one. Just lay attention the next time you’re at an airport, Disney, etc (if we ever get there again!). The Sub seems to be on every other wrist

[@CJ-rb3do]

I bought the 114060 no date a few years ago and it’s one of the best watch buying decisions I have ever made. As mentioned, it goes with every occasion and is a joy to wear. If I had to sell my watches, I think it would be the last to go.

[@LarryKippings]

Proud owner of a hulk and a no date Sub. My recommendation is to get one now with the maxi size lugs, especially if you are of a bigger build. I believe that when the updated Sub comes out with the new movement (likely early 2021), then Rolex will revert back to more traditional smaller lugs. And the hulk will be discontinued. Get one now! The world’s greatest every day watch.

[@Alex-lx2pg]

Nothing to argue here. Eric hit the nail on the head with ALL of his points presented! I love the Submariner, especially that all YG with the blue dial! 😍

Nicely done video Eric! I have a 2 tone gold and stainless sub black dial purchased new in 1990. This has been pretty much my daily driver. By the way, who makes that watch role your sporting? I like it!!

[@gzinecker]

Disagree with showing the Blancpain as sub-inspired. Correct me if I am wrong, but the Fifty Fathoms came out before the sub, so it would be a stretch to say that Blacpain took design cues from Rolex.

[@WatchEric]

Yes and you are correct. 100% You would be surprised how hard it is to find a nice pic with more than one dive watch. lolol It's like an easter egg for the knowledgable. you found it.Thank you for watching!

You‘re right, Eric! The Submariner is simply the best!! I bought my no-Date-Steel-Sub two and a half year before, and I never get bored!!!

Eric - There is something about wearing the Gold Sub 3:35 timestamp that differs from all other watches. It's just THAT SEXY of a watch. Best watch ever made and looks good on anyone's wrist!

[@WatchEric]

Very very true

[@TheMystro1971]

The ultimate modern Sub is the green bezel LVc “Starbucks”. It’s absolutely perfection in form and function. I dive with it as well as everything else from waterparks, upscale variations, etc…. It’s the one watch that just works in every environment. I have owned a lot of Sub’s over 3 decades and the Starbucks has just enough green to “pop”. My Hulk was just too much green over time and actually limited it’s versatility to me. The 12 series Sub case and bracelet eliminates all the blocky mistakes of the previous generation and seems more of a natural evolution of the classic 60s Sub.

[@truthteller2605]

Hey dude. Took me awhile to find you. I found you because someone mentioned your new channel in the comments of crm. People tuned in to hear you not those uptight blank blank blank.

I bought my Subbie in 1986. My cousin got it in the PX on the Ike while in Europe. I save birthday money, cut grass and put a few bucks away for about five years. When I got it, it was the closest to Christmas I had felt in years. That watch has been on my wrist almost every day for 34 years. After 3 major services and so much wear I was ready to retire it and put it away. Being blessed over the years I can now afford most any of the Rolexes that I want. I wanted to buy a Redline Dweller but I had no idea of the games the ADs play. I am not going to pay over sticker for anything. My brother said, man you already have the watch, fix that Sub up. So I took it to the AD and said I wanted the works including buffing because I don’t give a shit about patina. Six weeks later she comes back. When they took it out the bag I actually teared up. The watch was absolutely new! I could not tell it was my old watch. All the old markings are gone. It is just beautiful. New crown, bracelet, bezel, and now keeps perfect time. Only now I wear her once or twice a week. I never really knew what I had. I told the AD that if he got the Sea Dweller in, I wouldn’t trade even up. I don’t care about its value or what it’s worth, it’s now part of my patina and I’m so proud to own it.

[@bobbydazzler1780]

It’s the Rolex icon. And the most copied design language in the watch business for a reason. I’ve got steel for an everyday tank and a Bluesy for a weekend banger. This watch now evolved to perfection. Doesn’t miss a beat, doesn’t let you down, wears like silk on the wrist. Been skiing, mountain biking, swimming and hiking with mine. Life proof. And a fidget spinner to boot. Does it all and feels just right. When you screw down the hatch its ready to play if you are. Just don’t let it down with a quiet life.

[@frankyf8439]

I was a submariner in the Royal Navy I had to get one, I got the pre ceramic 16610 1990 so easy to put on a nato. Love this watch

[@paulchislett902]

I agree I think it’s the best Rolex overall as it can cover so many bases, dress it down or dress it up its that versatile and let’s not forget like Eric said it’s at a price point where more people can enjoy it!
