    Subs are fantastic watches, I’m a huge fan. Here’s my 4 liner purchased from orig owner B&Ps as well as my 1680. I keep one in the rotation at all times.

    I really love the combination of plexy and a glossy dial underneath. Found this one in Houston, spend 20 years in a safe before i got it 2 years ago. Transitional from 1985, got me from first sight.

    I’m looking to buy this 5512. My friends tell me to skip it. But there is something about it that I love.

    Here’s my maxi mk4, unpolished on a later 93150 bracelet. I also have the original.

    I agree if you’re asking for opinions...this one has too much damage from moisture intrusion. That’s why the lume is dark green, tritium is flaking and hands have lost lume material.

    Mine - hands and bezel may be a later replacement - which I’ll sort out one day.. with my Speedy 145.012, my perfect dive watch and perfect chrono - the last two watches I will ever sell.
