I'm going to be a bit against the grain here.. I feel that Rolex is an outstanding company and I gladly dump money on them, but diversification is a beautiful thing. I would personally snag the 2 tone sub, and then diversify with maybe a slightly nicer Pam like a 233 or 422. You can use both rubber and leather straps on those, thus a sport/dressier option, and the bluesy is super flexible with its application as both a dress and sports watch, so you will truly have a watch for any and all occasions. I'm not a huge breitling fan, although the chronomat/avenger/navitimers are always classics on in my book, with pretty impressive finishing (despite what the breitling haters say).
The Pam 90 has never done anything for me personally, and I would much prefer a 1950s case, like the 422, 423, or 233.
