I am not a fan of the Sub, admire the heritage and all, but don't really crave it. That said,
I have to agree that while the PO is nice, specially the 8500, it is not close to being the new Sub. Neither the heritage, nor nearly as recognizable, as the Sub, which is still the standard against which all divers are judged. Personally, I dislike the height of the PO, and the invisble doble AR coated crystal doesn't tickle my fancy. Just my 2 cents.
