I am finally in the club with a submariner and datejust yesterday but with price increase.....

btw, any tips on maintaining such watches? Thanks!

Rolex watch are very reliable (generally) and doesnt really require frequent servicing
For exterior, just use the high quality lint free cloth provided to wipe away dirt or fingerprint
I wouldnt recommend rugged activities if you are wearing expensive watches
Eg tennis, rock climbing, diving (though the sub is meant for diving), should be avoided

They are made for this... go and thrash them... they'll survive longer than the owner with 5yr servicing.

the most rugged activity i do with my rolex watches is dinner and movies
If i need a watch for sports, it will be breitling or omega
Call me bias, but i protect my rolexes alot more

Quick question for the Sub experts:

Is it possible a ND Sub 14060 with the COSC dial but without the "ROLEXROLEX" chapter ring? which series will that be?

If i remembered correctly, Chapter Rings are introduced in 2008 for (M) series and above...

Do people generally go for the non-COSC dial or COSC dial (with engraved rehaut)? Will the price defer much becos of this?
