I'd go with a GMT.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.

15202OR is clearly the winner of this poll, which I guess is not a big surprise.
Interesting to see that the 5712 is the decisive runner-up. I would have guessed that the AP RO PC would have had more votes.

Most here prefer the Nautilus and RO simple, ultra thin and blue dial, get 5712, will be awesome with the 5167R

Good decision on the 15202OR if you do actually get it. Again my favorite overall watch and that includes over 5980R's etc. I am sure you will love it and it will be nice RG combo with your 5167R.

I voted 5712 just because you needed a SS watch. Love the RG 15202 but do you want two RG watches is what you need to ask yourself. What about a SS 15202 and maybe wait for a Ceramic Daytona? Looking forward to seeing what you decide on

I’m surprised you’ve seemingly overlooked the Vacheron Constantin Overseas in Rose Gold, as a contender – especially the 49150 chronograph.
Here’s a watch that you can enjoy on rubber, leather, and bracelet, depending on mood or as required by the occasion.
Personally, I consider the bracelet to be the best designed so far, bar none.

I tried the AP 44 RG, and as much as it looks great, it's above my size comfort zone, even if I have 6.9, it's not that it looks awful, I can but 42mm is more pleasing aesthetically

jon_jon · 27 July 2016, 09:47 AM

If 5711/1A (blue) were an option, I am sure it would be a popular choice for the poll. But I think most people still voted for the blue dial on a RO or Nautilus.

superstarmar · 27 July 2016, 10:03 AM

The 116719BLRO hands down... Not to be biased but
PP and AP are just not my cup of tea esthetically!!!
Their designs just don't sing to me at all less the 5711 nautilus...
Still I'd choose the BLRO Pepsi over the nautilus
any day and every day !!!

UPDATE

At this point my update is this
1) 5617r is in
2) Hulk is coming (actually liked it better than the BLRO).
3) AP ROO 42 (looking for most durable option) OR if the stars align RM055
4) 15202OR Leaning... Want to see in person.
wildcard - Daytona C if and when it comes in. I am next on the list...LOL

Possibly could end up with a PP, AP, Rolex and an RM ... Which just so happen to be my 4 favorite brands.

5712 is out for now, maybe later. WG Pepsi is out forever, just didn't move me (liked my Smurf better).
AP PC unlikely at this point, but still a slim possibility. 5711 white unlikely now but still possible at some point.

First two definites, last two deciding which next.

So thanks again for everyones feedback, I am slowly honing in on a great 4 piece collection.
Might take a little time to complete, but the journey is really fun, so I am not in a huge rush

daytonaTBR · 1 August 2016, 04:40 AM

You should definitely get the 055 and the 15202or. Maybe flip the hulk when you get the new SS daytona? That would be an awesome 4 piece collection

Thanks Agreed... Kinda leaning that way all around though the Hulk might stay for 5 pieces.
Meeting with the guy who has the RM 055 today in Tampa. Luckily he is not too far away.

daytonaTBR · 1 August 2016, 06:11 AM

Good call then. I'm limiting myself to 7 watches as there's no point in me having more if I'm not gonna wear them often. Anyways you should also check out the RM030 as well. They're around the same price as 055's and they're automatic with a declutchable rotor. There are several LE's of that version that are available that use ATZ (St. Tropez, Le Mans, White Rush, etc.).

watchucallit · 1 August 2016, 07:07 AM

I voted for the PP 5712 (which were I own in SS)... I would probably have selected the AP 15202 if it were not for the lack of a seconds hand. I just have to have one on any watch I purchase. I am ok with chronograph only seconds hand.

But of course taste is subjective and to each his own...

This is really just beautiful.
