Right!?
Great video, you have explained the new sub with great detail and it shows how perfect this watch is. Your compassion and excitement about this watch is also spot on. Excellent job!
I always appreciate and adore your passion man. Also, the stache looks great!
I pause your video to clean my glasses. At the beginning there, you were getting pretty excited. I wanted to see what the excitement was all about. I then resume your video, and when I see it, drool hit my keyboard. And I also love how your nerding out about it... great stuff!!!
Great video Nathan, love the motion graphic details on the sizes just great quality in content and description.
Love the passion and excitement team, I love my hulk but the new sub rocks, design and cohesion with lugs and taper looks better !
These are exactly the kind of videos why you are my favourite watch channel. Well presented, high quality, informative yet nerdy but the good kind of nerdy. Keep it up!!

Thanks Sebastian!
Appreciate the painstakingly detailed take on sizes. Perhaps its only us smaller wristed folks who are that sensitive to size changes and tend to obsess over details like these. But I think watch manufacturers should also take note and focus on lug to lug measurements instead of diameter alone....I think a 46mm lug to lug on these oyster cases could be a good middle ground for the larger and smaller wristed folks.
Awesome video! Love the enthusiasm and attention to detail. Geeking out FTW !!!
Awesome video! The new Sub looks great. I Still love my 114060, and I got it at retail!
Finally a proper in depth review! I subscribed 👍
What an awesome review, great pictures, love it! Great job!!!
I tried on the previous maxi case version and the new 41 mm version at an AD recently and I agree that the updated Sub is awesome! You really have to try on the watch to best see how it fits. There have been a lot of concerns about the larger bracelet and clasp but when you actually compare them in person, the difference is minimal (it is definitely not much larger in person compared to the usual zoomed-in video footage that everyone has seen). Great video and keep up the great work!!
Great review and loved the excitement taking a first look at the new Sub.
Great video , loved the genuine enthusiasm 👍👍👍
2020: 1 mm taper and .3mm larger bezel....untold drama. 2030: AR coating on the crystal. Everyone is selling their 30k subs to trade in for the new 40k AR coated sub. 2040: 2030 the pre AR crystal Subs are now worth 70k and the post AR subs 50k 2040: the Sub moves back to 40mm but the we are still waiting on the 2030 post AR crystal Sub to hit the ADs.....

Great review. Love that enthusiasm!
Great video. Would love to see a similar one with the oyster perpetual.
Great video and comparison of all three. I own the 114060 and the new124060. I agree they wear about the same on the wrist, but for some reason the 124060 seems to feel slimmer on the wrist (wears lower). Not sure if that’s jus a visual thing or what. All in all I love the watch👍
I owned a Rolex Air-King since 2003,and I FINALLY saved up enough to get my Submariner. I absolutely LOVE this watch,and I do prefer the ceramic bezel...it really gives it some POP!
Thank you so much for an amazing video and actually going over all the measurements. Keep up all the good work and I can’t wait to see the next one. Quick question if you had to personally pick between two green submariner’s the Hulk or Kermit pre-ceramic which one would you take?

That'a a tough one Luis. I really enjoy the green dial on the Hulk, but the Supercase is less desirable. The Kermit is such a great watch, but I think is not nearly as impressive as the Hulk. If it were up to me I'd get the Kermit and the bracelet and clasp from the 116610. Thanks for watching
Great comparison of the Subs. Please do another video about dial and bezel size. And time graft measure the movements of the new Sub to the older 6 digit. Stay healthy and safe. Please put the new Sub up for bids on the website. Nathan and staff all the best.
What’s the length from end link to end Link?
Perfect video, exactly what I wanted to see ☺️
flavor of the day. THe 114060 will be sought after in time. Blocky is not bad.

Great review & comparo!
Great video. For first time Rolex watch buyer, any advice on buying one without over paying and waiting too long for it. Thanks.
Awesome video! Any chance you could compare the new sub case dimensions to the current gen GMTs? The new GMTs have the re-profiled super case with more elegant lugs than previous iterations of the super case. Would be fascinating to compare the current gen sub and GMT!
Great vid! What are the weights of each? With bracelet, and without bracelet (ie just the head) if possible.
how does it 1) Sit and 2) Feel on the wrist?
Brilliant video.super excited about picking up the new submariner in the very near future 👍
BTW, I used a caliber like the one you are using, plastic, and it did leave some marks on my new watch. I now electric added tape to the tips, just an FYI.
I have a request. Whenever you get your hands on a new Explorer 124270, could you do a size comparison with the older models 14270/114270 like you did with the old and new Submariners 🙏😬🙏
Man, which glasses are you wearing?? They look awesome!
How'd you get it under the mat without looking at it? Removed your eyes then put them back in?
Nate if all of us. You can feel is passion for these watches.
I didn't like the 116610LN or 114060, tried them on at the AD, they looked stocky on the wrist, almost square. The 126610 however is now like my SD43, perfectly proportioned. I love it.
I just got one and it's amazing, the perfect watch.
The super case is a good idea because you can actually look forward to polishing it
What’s about the dial/watch face? Just enjoy to see how exited you were 😅🤙🏼
I like the black dial one.
nice review, though sorry but the differences to me are minute. I like what Tudor's doing a lot more. I'm just praying for a bb58 GMT at this point
If I wanted to put a jubilee bracelet on this the new sub 41, would the jubilee of the datejust 41 be suitable? As I know, is the only jubilee in the actual catalog with 21mm width
Great review!! My go to guy!!
Awesome video! I own the previous 114060
Nice review, 41mm is so nice and proportionate. My favourite watch❤️
Thank you for truly tell us the SD43 is the best of them all... but personally if the secondary market or reseller price I go buy the SD43... nice video as always
Great job!
I'm so excited to know what is the model watch you worned during taking this video?
Great detailed.
Late to the video but an excellent review! I was fortunate enough to only have waited a few months at the AD to get one :D
why is the 12 marker and the top of the crown logo spaced further apart?
What is the dial size on new vs previous?
Great video. My grail is the 14060M
Crown & Caliber is great. I bought an Omega Globemaster from them and I can’t wait to do business with them again.
The Maxi case 40m is a great price on the great Market l bought one and l love it.
Thank you for a thorough and comprehensive review. I enjoyed watching it while holding the new Rolex 124060 in my hand 🔥 Thanks again 🙏
Great Video! Measuring it Across the case From the bottom left lug to the upper right corner lug what number does it give you? id like to know the number of the measurment. Thank you

Hey Louis, Here's a comparison of that measurement: 14060M - 52.4mm 114060 - 54.1mm 124060 - 54.1mm Hope this helps!
Weighed both models 116610 vs 126610 with the same number of links. New model is heavier by 2.2gms only.
It would’ve been great if a 5512 was included and compared in this video. Does anyone have a 5512 that could provide measurements to compare with these models? Please include thickness and any other details you’d like. Thanks in advance!
Nathan is the man....good stuff brother!
Put my Sub beside the new one and could not see much difference. Mine is the date version with the 3135 movement and keeps within 1 second a day. Did not trade.
Can you pls compare the weights including all the links?
Fantastic video
Great video, the 124060 is perfect..the dial just pops..its the easiest to read.
Are they all the same thickness?
This new sub is 🔥. A real nice evolution of the model. Now let me gaze at my 116610LN a bit more.
All you missed was weighing the different references. Which is the lightest? How does the new movement effect weight, etc.
You missed measuring the case thickness as opposed to the watch thickness. One of the most important dimensions for how the watch will wear.
I just bought this watch (124060) two weeks ago. I am very happy with my purchase (11.5 month wait time from AD)

Acquire one yesterday, on demand from a private seller, waited zero time and paid just under 20% over retail plus tax.
Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t watch diameters measured like a tv? Diagonally? Wondering if that would make any difference in the measurements. Also fantastic content.

I know the videos about the sub, but that datejust looks better on you. :)
Will stick to my 16610 , was not a fan of supercase, new one looks better, but sure it has an insurmountable wait list again.
the best video about new sub.
A perfect watch you cannot buy if you do not spend money on the watches you do not want.

@Sharon Plume Yes, that's true but not the primary goal. More likely that they are looking to maximise sales from repeat customers or make peiple buy more to get what they actually want. I went into the largest ad in the uk, a large chain of 3 brands that sell most of the rolex supply in the UK. They said I had to have bought a rolex via them before to be on the interest list. So I asked, if I buy an op now would you put me on the list, she said yes but there is no guarantee I would get the no date sub I asked for. I'm essentially doing the job for them, 2 sales for 1. In no way does that prove I would be real or a flipper, it just helps them get rid of stock. Its bundling or trying to hook people to be regular buyers from them. Even the op could only be a colour that wasn't really in demand. So they control most of the uk supply and rolex knows whats going on. At least she explained the situation properly and registered me incase. Also tried the rolex boutique on bond Street, same...he'll register me but said my chances are zero. Didn't even bother with saying much else and waited for me to leave. One thing I can guarantee you is that the flippers have a purchase history and put themselves on every list in the past. No new rolex customers until you have bought some things you don't want, then maybe. That increaes the grey market cost which is way too much considering the high horology you can get at that price. Asked if my family would want anything or if i would like a datejust instead. Thought the buyer makes the choice? Play that game with a few models (daytona), but all of one style (steel sports) really takes you out of the game. Just an awful experience but its not her fault, the company enforce it. Went into JLC, Omega, blancpain and grand seiko since to see the alternatives. Treated with respect and actually got to try on some stunning pieces, the sales people were knowledge and enthusiastic about thier products rather than gaming sales. Plenty of alternatives and I've narrowed it down to 2. The one major concern with wearing a rolex was being a target in london and the 'is it fake/youre just flexing 10k' rep you get with wearing a sub. That risk is higher than ever now the cats out of the bag and high end fakes are everywhere. The brand seems to be for those that to want to display wealth, i was simply interested in a classic dressy diver so I'm not their target market.

Unless you live in the right country and have the right connections, just got mine at retail price from AD... the only one Rolex Swiss sent to the store.
The changes are just what I was hoping for, but the truth is I’m probably going to keep my 1997 model I bought new 23 years ago since the chances of me scoring a new one from my local Rolex AD is pretty slim, which sucks. I’d gladly put a deposit down and wait 2 years for one, but that’s not how it works unfortunately
How does it compare to the 126710BLRO?
Great and informative video! Can you confirm if the rotor in the new 3230/5 movement rattles when actively wearing on the wrist? Can you please compare the 3130 and the 3230 to see if this rumor holds up?

It’s definitely noisy compared to the older one. They used ceramic ball bearings in the rotor axel that make the noise.

i just got mine and it does the same noise… i went directly to the AD and they told me it’s normal with the new movement and people are scared and they got the same concern before… strange
love the no-date sub
Anyone know which size/model datejust Nathan wears? Size looks spot on. Sub, granted it’s a sports watch, appears much chunkier IMHO.

Nathan wears a 36mm Datejust Ref. 16200. Thanks for watching
I would get excited if I could get one at retail but grey market is where most of us will be getting one.
REF. 14060M has the best dial since it doesn't have the words "SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED" on it. It looks less busy and more clean.
Bro brought out his calibres, 💩 about to get real and I’m liking it!!!
Still prefer the vintage subs this ain't that bad
Forget the watch, sick mustache bro!!!

124060 really is the perfect watch.
The bezel looks correct, dimension is correct and all the markers and hands are correct, the dial is also correct. This is the best rep I’ve seen, where do you get it ?
Great video - thanks. On the dial of the new sub, on one I inspected at an AD, the area immediately around the centre, where the hands meet the dial, there is a slight impression, or ripple (ie the dial is not absolutely flat). The same seems true around the date window (on the date version I viewed). I cant remember seeing that on previous references. Is that same impression on the watch you have, and is it not there on the previous

@@sgoody1 It is definitely there you are correct. I think it is probably a change in manufacturing and not a flaw. It was consistent on all there new models which if it were a flaw I would presume it would NOT be as consistent. Just speculation though. And good EYES man!
the ABSOLUTE best 2020 release Submariner is the 126619LB.. you get the best of all... a color bezel, stainless sport look, and sold gold luxury and heft!
Bring back the 16610. It had the best overall shape for the Sub.
It is pretty much the same watch. You can barely notice the boxy case of the previous model on the wrist. I think they should have left the bracelet dimensions untouched. Also movement wise it seems like a huge upgrade but the only major difference is the additional power reserve of about 20 hrs. Only usefull if you leave it unworn for a weekend.
What about the movement being much louder ?
