Check out this Thread I did a few years back re SubC vs SDC. I still have both and funnily am toying with getting another SubC LN (probably ND)

They each have their merits - I reckon the ND will be a great choice for you.
I found the opposite. I traded in my No date Sub C for a SD4000 and, mainly due to the lugs, find the SD to be a slightly more comfortable watch to wear.
The symmetry of the dateless sub was lovely though, and one day l may revisit - maybe an older model - but for a daily wearer l like a date and prefer no cyclops. SD won through.
I too like the symmetry of the ND, and I have no need of a date, but it is the chunky lugs and, come to think of it, the gloss dial, which worry me with the base sub. I have put my order on hold. Bugger, why is this so difficult!
I wish threads like this did not exist as I am trying very hard to talk myself out of an SDc.
I have a 5513, 16570, 14060 and a 16710 why the hell do I need one of those?????????
Trouble is I am close to folding.........
just wear the Patek, don't get this daily beater thing for me it's Patek one day skydweller next.
The SeaDweller for me is the best looking of the bunch.
I'm sticking that on my list :)
