I am always on the hunt or so it seems, but have found lately that my Sub C has scratched my itches in all the right places. Looks great in all attire, sporty, clean, incredibly accurate, quality craftsmanship, and I could go on. Having just turned 50, I don't see myself wearing BIG watches that much anymore although I still want a Pam of some sort. But this one just answers the mail. Having trouble with pics since photobucket changed, but will try and post some.

The sub is as good a "one watch" as there is. Though I still prefer the bezel options of the old GMT to the new, I think the ceramic does dress up the sub a bit. Hard to go wrong with one, enjoy.

Photobucket have enhanced the new screen set up. You can now see the photo code for copying, just like the old version.

Looks like they listened to the mountain of cries from users. :poke:

Must have been all the Source contributors ranting at the same time that made them change the format!

Had mine almost a year and a half now and I still feel that way about it. If there's a better 'one watch for everything', I have no idea what it would be.

When I go to the "links" I can copy and paste the code but the images do not come out on this forum. Seems to work on other forums though.. :poke:

It's the watch I could easily wear every day. I agree with everything you mention about the size, craftmanship, and accuracy.

I agree Justin. I find myself wanting to wear it every day. My Exp II still wiggles it's way in, but everything else has taken a back seat. :wink:

I have my SUB C on for a third day in a row - that hasn't happened for any watch for a long time!

Wow, sounds unusual.

On the Image Links box, did you copy the IMG code at the bottom of the list? Paste that into your thread and see what happens. You should see it on the message you are creating. If not, I don't kow what to suggest.

Thanks Jim, I'll try it again.
