With some of my watches I switch to the bracelet in the warmer months. Straps don't age well when constantly soaked with perspiration.

Since you already have a chrono, I would say the Sub. But I have a soft spot from the Portuguese Chrono. I hate the way the numbers are cut off but it I adore the dial. It is clean for a Chrono and the white dial with blued numerals and hands looks fantastic. I see they offer a blue dial with silver indices but I have not seen it in person.

How about a Reverso. It dresses up nicely on a strap and is sporty on a bracelet. An iconic keeper, just like your Speedy.

Frilly, if I can ask, how many watches are in your collection?
Every time I enter this thread and see all these Rolex's the thought crosses my mind: "Well… some look nice. I should get one. But first, the Speedy!"

Funny, I am the other way with Omegas. Have considered the Speedy, SMP Bond and Aqua Terra and just can't quite pull the trigger. I swear those watches are always in the running when buying but just never makes it over the hump. Maybe one day...
Tough choice. I want to say Sub because it is just that quintessential Rolex but then again you already have a sport watch in the Speedy and between the Sub and Explorer, the Explorer is more versatile and can work as a dress watch as well. I think it would be best to try both on and just see which works for you and your intended purpose. They wear differently from each other, the Subs wears much bigger and bulkier.
Best of luck!

You've been debating a Sub purchase for quite awhile now haven't you, Ari. That would be my personal choice, but either way, you're on a winner.
