Update- wore my BB58 almost all summer. Only a few exceptions. It is a great piece. Yes, I would like drilled lugs and maybe crown guards (no biggie on the crown guards - it’s true to the “original”). Labor Day I plan to switch to the Exp 1. Honestly the BB58 and Exp I might be the perfect two watch combo. Hard to put into words but somehow I just feel like the 58 is just cooler than the modern Sub.
Now the only real competition in my view is the Pelagos 39mm. I am seriously considering one. I think I would still keep the 58 however, just out of nostalgia. To me the 58 falls into heirloom category- to be passed to one of my sons one day. This was your dad’s summer watch. There is a timeless quality to the piece, just like my Explorer. I like watches like that.

Even though I just recently got it, my Hamilton Pilot is my favorite dress watch.

Pro pic since it’s so much better than what I can take.

Mine would be my issued CWC SBS. Has some nice patina on it from honest use, and keeps time within 10sec/yr. I've had a few of these over the years, but they either didn't keep time all that great, or the seconds hand hit between the indices most of the time, so I ended up flipping those. This one's a keeper, and is from one of the last runs that actually had a stamped NSN on the caseback rather than all lasered.
