I am at a crossroad.

Seriously thinking whether to move the Submariner (2001 14060M) on.

That's a surprise Scooter. Do you find yourself just wearing the NF on a daily basis, so the Sub gets no wrist time, or are there other factors?

Since I bought the North Flag in October 2017 I have worn the Submariner about a dozen or so times.

You can appreciate my dilemma, I'm sure.

That makes sense. The NF is a watch I have admired and thought about buying many times.

If you aren't wearing the Sub, let someone else have the pleasure of enjoying wearing it....after suitably recompensing you first of course!

Don’t do it Scooter!
You have on you’re wrist a piece of the watchworld’s treasure. IMHO the sub is the greatest watch ever built. I know, a little over the top :lol:
Not only is it a fantastic investment peice but will be hard to re-source. Pre-owned and grey dealer prices are mental, in London anyway.
Keep it scooter unless you need to release funds of course. One things for sure, you won’t have trouble selling it. :thumbup:

I totally agree that it is a great watch and everything you say is spot on.

Antony

Pros: It's the perfect 10 for me from Rolex.

Cons: I'm just not wearing it.

It's probably that simple.

Should I decide to move it on I have notified a high flying member that he has first refusal.

@Scooter: It's a good time to be selling - prices are ludicrous, and I believe yours was serviced not long ago? I love mine but don't wear it every day, enough to keep though.

Anyway, I've been practising my French on the locals...
