3 PM Pieces

Thinking of having only three PM pieces and nothing platinum. Looking for White Gold, Gold and Erverose.

What combination would you go with?

First thought was Everose DD with chocolate dial, White Gold GMT and then a Gold Daytona.

What’s throwing me off is my AD can get me a white gold DD in olive today and I want it lol.

Sounds like a great bunch of watches you’ve chosen. I say go with it. If you like the white gold DD with olive, try it out for a while. If it doesn’t suit you get rid of it and add the chocolate dial later.

RG with olive or WG with olive is a winner.

WG with Olive is not a hot seller imho.

I think any WG watch is very difficult to move and sell in the current market.

Rose Gold Chocolate would be a better choice.

The WG DD with olive dial is a beauty. I'd add that piece and go from there

3 gold pieces would be a great collection. I think your choices are good ones. The only thing I am not a fan of is the YG Daytona bezel. It is quite the scratch magnet. I prefer the ceramic bezels for a Daytona. WG GMT is great. I love WG DD's even though I only have YG DD (OQ and DD40). Look forward to seeing your additions.

I think you nailed it. The only question is the white gold Pepsi but I think that’s what I’d do too, I’d consider the white gold yacht on rubber. My friend just got yellow Daytona and it’s stunning. Rose gold day date is so nice!

Rolex WG doesn’t do anything for me but Benzsiam’s picks are perfect.

Ideally I would do Skydweller RG/Blue, DD Olive Rose and a platinum Daytona. A little bit of everything.

I recently consolidated 6 to 3. Now I have the three PM pieces in my signature and couldn’t be happier (unless I had more Pateks lol)

I submit the above for your consideration.

Covers all three bracelets, all three gold options, and gets you a meteorite and a baguette dial. The DD dresses up well as does the SkyD, and the GMT has plenty of WR for occasions that need it.

I have one in each gold color.

classic white dial yellow gold ( a must and first I got)
everest sundust, love it, very cool to wear , sometimes feel nicer than yellow but one has to have a yellow one.
white olive, more stealth, get compliments, but don’t wear as much as other two.


Having one in each gold color is super cool!

I’d start with a Day Date and see you how you get along with it before adding others.

The DD sings precious metal Rolex (to me)

I like the idea of one at a time and see where it takes you.
Seems like the DD should be first.

I’m not sure I’d go with the WG, YG, EG theme. I’d focus on the watches I like most and go from there. If they’re all YG, then so be it.

Plus, I could see replacing my Submariner with a solid gold variant. That would be great. I just don’t know if I’d want to replace my SS GMT with a PM version.

I am not a fan of blingy watches that attract too much attention from the general public.

From any WIS, attention is usually understated with a knowing nod of the head.

Personally, I like stealth wealth best so for me it's a WG land-air-sea trio:

1) WG Daytona, black dial on Oysterflex;

2) WG GMT II, black dial; and

3) WG Submariner, cookie monster.
