Ok so I am debating on a JLC Polaris Date, Tudor Pepsi GMT, or Rolex Explorer II black dial, or IWC Portugeiser 5007-03 Black Dial.

I recently sold my only watch which was a big pilot 5004.

My wrist is empty! This will be my only piece. I am fairly active and usually don't like taking the watch off besides for sleep.

Which would you chose?

The Rolex if you can only have one. I do like the JLC Polaris with the blue dial though.

That is very poor planning to not have any watches now!

Haha super poor planning, but I had to flip one to swing another one :) I won't be naked on the wrist for to long :)

Tudor for me. Quite handsome, rugged, and hasn’t been that affected by the bubble (I hope at least). Watches on leather would be out as a one and only.

Of the watches listed, the Tudor BB GMT. Mine has surpassed every expectation.

Exp2 if your wrist can handle it- great all-around no-fuss watch

Can't go wrong with an Expll. I also like the JLC polaris line, I was thinking of their chrono version of it, not to good around water though, I'm spoiled for screw down crowns.

Explorer deuce

Explorer or Polaris

Tudor for me please

GB-man · 25 February 2020, 02:19 PM

Tudor or exp II for me. Depends if you want to have a rolex on 24/7.

Bdiesel570 · 25 February 2020, 02:32 PM

I've never owned a Tudor or JLC. I've had plenty Rolex and IWC watches. I feel like the explorer deuce has best resale value but I'm sick of flipping to find the one.

ExpII as an only watch for all ocassions.

Bdiesel570 · 28 February 2020, 04:51 AM

I actually went with a house I have never owned before. Excited to join the JLC family. Hopefully for a while (I flip it much)

Of those, I'd probably go for the Explorer II followed by the Tudor GMT for an only watch.
