I have wanted a 114060 No Date SUB for several years, but could not justify the cost of the genuine article. After waiting for months for the VSF 114060 I finally received one back in July. The irony in this story, is that after wearing my genuine Tudor BB58 I found the VSF 114060 just too big for my wrist. I have only worn it three times. I am on the fence if I should sell the VSF 114060 because it just sits on the watch winder. Still, it is an awesome looking watch.
How noticable it is on the whrist?

Wear it for a few weeks and see how you feel. When I first put on a Deepsea, it felt and looked way too big. A couple of weeks later, I couldn't take it off. Then I bought 4 more.

If Charlize Theron can wear a 44mm x 18mm Deepsea and have it look good, I reckon anyone can rock a Sub.

Show us a wrist shot. I bet it looks awesome.

I have a geniune Breitling Seawolf Chrono Avenger Titanium that I got back in 2010. 44mm x 13mm. I have worn that watch for years, but it has been sitting on my watch winder for the past couple of years. I just got so used to the smaller and lighter watch size. This is why I am leaning towards selling my VSF 114060 No Date Sub that I purchased from Puretime.

What happend to this thread? It feels like Im on reddit.. same questions is ask over and over and over again..
Reddit still takes the cake for the absolutely dumbest watch questions I've ever seen...EVER... If I was driving at 2pm headed north should I buy a clean DJ or a VSF for when the sun bounces off my forehead in my Honda Accord.

I personally think it isn't necessary, but haven't seen one in the flesh. Other members say they're much clearer.

I don't have a gen 114060 but do have VSF, and I have a gen 116610. Cyclops aside, I can't tell the difference.

Here's some gen and VSF Sub Date pics. And there's a lengthy thread on the Deep Crystal here.

Hey just another question. For a VSF sub, is the turning of the dial rigid? Or similar to a gen which is smoother. As I saw a few comments about a rep dial falling off or needing to switch the dial. Thank you!
