The Rolex Submariner. Long-ish Term Review. Why I bought the submariner 3 times!

Ойын-сауық

The Rolex Submariner is the watch that made me fall in love with watches. Its storied history, prestige, and perfect symmetry will always captivate my heart. The reference 114060 became my infatuation. At one point you can even say it was my grail. In todays video I give a practical long term review of this beauty. I also talk about a bit of a love hate relationship I’ve had with this watch. Follow along with my mental struggle with the details that us watch lovers obsess about. Hope you enjoy the visuals, thanks for watching.

    I have 2 Rolexes. Each corresponding with the birth of my children. I've always wanted this Submariner though. Something about it not having a date window makes it look like a work of art. I purchased the black ceramic/titanium Omega Seamaster for the same reason. And yeah yeah, I actually did want and do love my Seamaster! 😅 My 45th Birthday is coming up. Maybe it's a good enough reason to finally get this Sub.

    Never cared for this watch at all. Saying that all Omega owners really want a Submariner is quite snobbish and obviously not true. It’s like saying all Rolex owners wish they were in the Patek club. Nonsense.

    Been using my '96 sub as and edc watch since 1998. It has gone literally everywhere with me, including to work in a Minnesota prison for over 20 yrs. I wear it on a nato, on the inside of my wrist, Just so inmates don't see it. Kinda risky, but only a few coworkers even know about it. Most ppl pay no attention to what kind of watch someone is wearing. My sub is kinda beat up and scratched (aluminum bezel back then) but still an awesome watch. Still looks great and has a ton of personality. Never been serviced and still keeps time like a champ.

    Things to consider: did you get your sub for retail? Are you emotionally connected to it? If so forget about it, because while you hate the clasp on the 41mm (which is exactly what I hate about the new 41mm) you’ll find a way to hate the shoulders on the 40mm 😆 it’s a sickness my friend. And you have it bad just like me. You can always find something to nit pick about any watch. I love the tapered case on the 41, but the wider bracelet would bug me. Just remember, you have a submariner, wear it, enjoy it, don’t let the details ruin it for you.

    I was going to add, I was super lucky to get the Panda Daytona at retail 5.5 years ago but that AD can’t sell me a Datejust now so built a new relationship with an AD and managed to get a DJ41 blue dial (fluted bezel on jubilee) as they said if I get the non sports model will help me get sports later. Even though I have smaller wrist the 41mm still just about works fine. So just have the two pieces (Steel Daytona and DJ41 blue) currently, for my next (third piece and won’t be adding for ages) would you personally go for the Submariner or the Explorer 36 or the Submariner? I prefer the idea of the Submariner (even though there are things that I don’t necessarily love like the clasp but can learn to live with these) as it’s a classic as I see it as a more of a icon but the Explorer..there is something pure about it that also makes it attractive even if sometimes comes across ‘boring’ to some….”

But awesome that you were able to snag that up before the hype, I’m on the list 🙃. As far as the sub vs explorer, it seems like you are leaning sub so it would be easy to recommend going that way. But the explorer would be a nice size change up from what’s already in your collection. I very much love the explorer, and would love to add the new 36. Yes it’s boring but it’s supposed to be. The design is perfect, it’s beautiful because of its simplicity. And the size is very classic. Explorer won’t turn any heads but your own. Ultimately you can’t go wrong with either. And at the end of the day you’re gonna have both. So which one do you want first? which one fits your lifestyle now?

Anyway, such is life! Makes sense about the Sub and the Explorer…perhaps best just to take which one they offer me first. Having two very young kids, a big mortgage etc…I’m trying not to go over board with my spending as doesn’t feel right hence trying to justify just getting one and the maybe another some years later. I want to try and have a compact collection of 3-5 watches that all get decent wear time….anymore I just feel is not justified as some will end up just sitting there and I could have spent those funds elsewhere, hence trying to be focused. But you are right…both are great. Probably if I had the choice, I would choose a submarine first just find it versatile and an icon. Many people in my industry (finance/banking) have one but still love it. Ultimately would be great to have a GMT too then I would have a classic everyday in the DJ41, chrono in the Daytona, diver in the Sub, dual time in GMT and I guess Explorer for any situation when looking to fly under the radar.

    @@ChristopherNegroni Thank you Chris...I am delighted by your comment. I have 3 picture frames in my living room and they are all 3 different angles of the Rolex Submariner. I love watches...a tudor bb58 is being a great way of me getting into this hobby of horology without braking the bank and NO buyers remorse at all. My next serious purchase will be the Rolex Submariner no date ( I hope 🤪) it will be worth the wait and struggle, I have no doubt! Thank you again Chris!!!

    @@luiscaballero5493 it’ll be worth it because you waiting patiently for it, worked hard, and it’ll remind you of that. Just don’t take it for granted like I do sometimes and forget that it’s all you really need. Side note the Tudor isn’t a cheap watch, I think it’s easy in this hobby to get caught up in videos of watches that cost exorbitant amounts of money, we lose perspective. The BB58 can serve a man proudly for many lifetimes. I hope you’re proud of the fact that you own that watch right now.

    Actually I dont think that a seamaster buyer wants a submariner. The seamaster is about the only diver which isn't some sort of copy of the submariner. I love my rolexes but I never considered a Submariner as to me that is the Rolex basically everybody who doesn't give a F*ck about watches buys to brag with. I do love the Submariner but because of this I woud buy other Rolexes before that one. I did buy a Seamaster because that is a great diver and it doesn't look like the most copied watch in history....the submariner. But I do agree with most of what you said here!
