For under $10k I would say go with a really nice 1680 white or a 1675 Pepsi

There's no answer to this.
What do you like and what do you expect the watch to do? |

If it's your first piece, I'd go with a 5513. Good luck.

I agree with everyone so far. Subs (5513 or 1680). If a second timezone would help, then a GMT (1675).

I prefer the date function so I vote for a 1675/16750 matte or 1680. 5513s are great if you love simplicity.

Quite a few good options for under $10K. I like the GMT 1675 or 16750, or a Sub 5513. Plenty of good examples for sale by trusted TRF sellers. Good luck!

Go buy a 1601 and a 5513. Why get one when you can have two great vintage Rolexes for under $10k.

you could probably find a nice 1665 SD for 10k...as much as I love 5513's I would be just as happy with the SD..
