If you had to pick your dream Rolex ..

[Tony8959]

If pricing and availability (waiting lists) were no issue, which Rolex would you acquire? Could be vintage or modern, list the model and reference. Feel free to add pics.

I’ll get it started .. since I’m more into modern watches, that ice blue dial and platinum would be one that would fit my style as the bracelet flies a bit under the radar- the Platona 116506

Kermit for me...

[Juantxo]

Explorer I 36mm, with date.

[mattesq]

Wow - tough call .... have to go vintage here.

Can only narrow down to 2 -

Sea Dweller 1665 Double Red or

Daytona 6263 "Big Red" - White dial

[SearChart]

Platona with diamond markers.

[1665fan]

Patrizzi 16520....

[SoTaxLaw]

Paul Newman Rolex

[Harry-57]

WG BLRO or Smurf. Can I have both please?

[AJMarcus]

I’m fortunate enough to be wearing mine. The BLRO SS Ceramic. I’d post a pic but it’s way to complicated on TRF these days.

[samson66]

I'd go with the first watch in this thread but make it 42mm

[Carry The Interest]

Throwing some vintage into the mix. Would love a YG 6264 lemon dial in my collection...

[MyDadsAirKing]

Smurf

[strafer_kid]

Possibly a nice 1665 SD though since it is more unlikely than ever to happen, I would probably just stick with my 16710!

Great choices ! Wouldn’t mind those either

[ny_yeti]

Good question! I would be torn between;

1) Sea Dweller 1665 Double Red
2) Yellow gold day/date

I’ll consider it

[datejustrms]

Platinum DD with Ice Blue Motif Dial

[JayHantz]

A 6263, my absolute dream watch.

[JP.]

[HONDABBQ]

116659 sabr

[Annan]

I used to think a YG 40mm DD was my grail but today I'm satisfied with my DJ41. There's nothing else in the current lineup I would trade it for. However......I do wish I had kept my 116710LN.

How about vintage though?

[BisonHead]

Wow what a great question.

I think it would have to be a vintage YG DD. Such a classic watch, maybe for my 50th

Full set, nice and original, 1 owner. Lets take it onto its next journey in life.

[Dsmith1974]

I’d add a King Midas to the above.

[AK797]

A genuine 40mm SS Daytona with true Panda dials.

THIS for me also.

Vintage- 6263 Modern- Probably a platinum Daytona. I would say a Newman but I don't know if I'm drawn to the Newman becuase of how great the watch it, or because of what the price has done in the last 10 years. I have always loved the 6263, unfortunately i think i am priced out of that option, and i don't see that changing as the price continues to climb.

[Hibbyx]

I would go with a WG Daytona on oyster flex, was the platona but after trying the WG Daytona on OF I've changed, it's easy to say Paul Newman but trying to be realistic somewhat

None, I'm not feeling the new Rolex strategy, it's offputting to say the least. At this pace I'll forget about Rolex, perhaps even trade in what I've got and call it quits.
