I'm not a huge fan of the supercase/ceramic Rolex models
I know a few people who agree with you.
What I do love is the darker tone of steel that they used on my 116613LN. Somehow pulls the whole thing together for me.

The only two-tone watch I would consider. Very jealous of yours.

There's a lot to like about the newer design. They're all lovely watches. I don't always wear a watch so I find the supercase a bit heavy. I never notice the sub unless it's really hot and my wrist swells. Then the GMT band is great, it has the cocktail hour extension so you can loosen it easily.

Even then I would say, only if you need a sports watch. The explorer/air king/datejust is a watch for life. The sub gets less suitable the older you get!
A friend has a deep sea because he always has to have statement watch. It's just not my thing but it suits him.
Went for lunch a few months ago and 5 of us were wearing subs, 3 guys, 2 girls, all different models. No one brought it up, thankfully. I'm not a huge fan of the supercase/ceramic Rolex models, I have the GMT but prefer the sub most of the time.
