Every Rolex model is beautiful in its own way, but with that said, what is your least favorite model?

Said another way: What is the model that only Mother Rolex could love?

Curious to see if there is some sort common wisdom to one that just doesn't appeal to the masses?

Question is meant to be thought provoking, not negative. Personally, I love to know what to stay away from as it pertain to secondary market demand.

As a piece of jewelry (which the rainbow Daytona is intended to be) I think it's a work of art. It's certainly not a watch that fits my style, but I think the rainbow bezel is amazing and would love to see this model in person.

Hi KILYUNG
seams you know a lots about watches, could you help me out?
I bought a Rolex Daytona on june 2013 from an AD, when I run the serial number I find out the date of production is 2008.
is this normal, or I consider this new watch as 5 years old?
Thank-you

There are A LOT of Milgauss votes on here. I think my next watch is going to be a GV... still

I do agree, though, the DSSD is not something ANYONE above the surface of the ocean needs to be wearing.

I didn't go through this whole thread but was there a single person that said "Black submariner"? That would really be something.. kind of like going on a Fender Guitar forum and saying, "you know what, I just don't really like the Stratocaster".

Absolutely. I suppose the black sub is the man. As it were. I kind of like all Rolexes, but at a push I'd have to say the Daytona is a big let down. Too small. Great in every other way, I accept, but too small for me.

Very unpopular: all-gold DJ. Not because it is bad or ugly, no, but simply because of the DD.

Other than those 2 I cant think of anything. Everything I like. I mean every other Rolex may have something small Im not a big fan of but the whole Yachtmaster line up is hideous IMHO. Sorry to those who have them. You may think something I have/like is hideous and thats fine by me. This thread is only about our opinions right?

Men's models other than the DD/DJ. Don't get why women even want to wear the men's models.
