@hblwatches: 3 luxury Swiss watches I’d choose over a Rolex Submariner. 👀⌚ Without the Rolex price tag or the authorised dealer waiting game. All three offer fantastic Swiss watchmaking, impressive specifications and plenty of character, for less than £5,000 brand new. And the third? That’s my personal favourite of the lot. 🔥 Now, I’m not saying they’re better watches than the Submariner, but they’re certainly worth considering. Would you choose any of these over a Rolex Submariner, or am I completely mad? 😂 Let me know in the comments. 👇 #LuxuryWatches #RolexSubmariner #Breitling #Tudor #Longines
But none of them are a sub, and that’s the point. My grail was a sub and until I got it I tried to scratch the itch with the other but believe me they don’t.

Yeah but it's not a Sub so it will never satisfy you if that's what you're trying to copy.

Tudor Pelagas 42 is a better made, tougher watch than a sub at half the price👌

Almost three out of three - my longines hydroconquest is the Commonwealth Games edition and my Breitling is the black/white dial... BB 41mm mono is stop on and mines in the jubilee

I'm all about the Tudor but love the 39 Pelagos. A true tool watch, Feel like that's what Submariner was back in the day.

Breitlings specs are awfull for that amount of money. The New superocean looks like every Diver. It should sit for about 2k. I like the older models way more.

All decent watches but the Rolex Submariner is arguably the most iconic watch on the planet for a reason😉

Breitling’s UK editions are serious bangers! I can only hope we see them appear one day across the pond!
