Any watch with ceramic eliminates it from the running for me.

Datejust or OP, for classic styling and wearing comfort.

Subjective question but my own opinion:

(-) Sub. Classic, rugged, pairs with everything. It’s the icon for a reason. Glide lock makes it a perfect fit on any wrist.
(-) Explorer. Simple three hander that easily fits into board shorts or the board room. Rugged as well and flies under the radar. Comes with EZ link.
(-) OP39. It’s a really stunning piece that can dress up or down. Easy to read and has a classy datejust look with an entry level price tag. No EZ link though.
(-) Datejust. The 36 or 41 are both winners. Also an icon for a reason, it’s a classic and timeless look. Get a fluted bezel and oyster bracelet for a one and only. It looks great year round and is a perfect daily. Comes with EZ link.

Is this a gen watch? The 300m seems a bit far to the right?

I’ve got to say that once you get used to not having a date function, the sub no date (114060) is pretty much the perfect watch
