Bling bling!
Met a buddy of mine last night, we got to talking about watches and he let me try on his new piece. Not my taste but it's what makes him happy. He got a Breitling he told me he got a good deal on it. His father in the other hand picked up a new in stock TT Blue Sub with lug holes. Breitling is too big and flashy for my taste in my opinion. I figured I would share to compare the size and style of my beloved daily Sub C.

Need advice, my first Rolex...14060 vs 15210 vs 16570
Hello all,Longtime lurker here. I have always been fascinated by watches and as I have aged I have fallen in love with the history of Rolex. I currently have an Omega Seamaster 2531.80 which I plan to keep. But I can't hold out any longer and want to get my first Rolex at the ripe age of 38.Aiming to keep it under $5,500 so looking at pre-owned Rolexes as the best bang for my buck. I currently have my eye on either a Sub 14060, a Rolex Date 15210 or a Rolex Explorer II 16570.Never realized the range of different emotions one goes through when getting ready to purchase their first Rolex. I love the Sub, cos well its the Sub. Love the Explorer II because of the value of what you get for what you pay. Love the 15210 for its simplicity and classic simple look.Would love to hear some opinions on which of those 3 you guys would lean toward.
