🔵Smurf.

If money counts, an oyster perpetual 114300 blue dial.

So blue is blue 🟦

It actually borne with an Oyster but I switched it with the Pepsi and I like it much better this way…
Years of memories and travels, I could never part with it!

I just sold my Sub 114060 because it wore to bulky and blocky on my 7 inch wrist! 

Holy moly aqua.
But very honest you told it now to the community.

Personally i am very straight to watch brands like brand A is bad and brand B is the best.
I kept always a carte blanche for the crown, while i cannot decide if i want to pay for the watch or the name.
Mostly i go for the watch instead to put money on the desk for a name.
But horological seen, the crown is both a name and the watch.
But before i become a kind of Shakespeare, Rootbeer.

I liked the idea of the Sub a lot more than the actual watch itself in every day practice. If I ever come back , perhaps I’ll try the 14060

Never looked back. It no longer brought me joy, so it wasn’t being worn. Off it went . Keep us posted

But it does seem on the clunky side especially for a time only. 

Contemporary and vintage!

…tool-watch company, I submit to you reference number 1655.

...and yes both bracelets are mandatory

And so if there was one choice it would be this one (choosing from what I currently own), but if it was a wider choice I think also a DD 36 in WG but with a special dial.
