If you were a one watch guy

The only watch I may be getting beside my Tudor GMT and SD43 is the SS SkyDweller blue dial.
I’ve always been a one watch guy, so any of the 3 mentioned above can become my one and only but if I have to pick one I don’t think I’ll be able not to go with this one.

This would be pretty far up there.


Non-Rolex: I like my Moser Pioneer. You can order a bracelet separately for it.

Speedmaster for sure although I'd probably do the sapphire sandwich. It's an extremely versitile watch that takes on very different characteristics depending on whether it's on a bracelet, leather strap or a nato.

If I had to pick a Rolex I'd pick a Datejust. I'm not a fan of wearing sport watches with suits.

Smooth bezel DJ. Goes with everything, you have alot of dial options and can choose between 36 vs 41.

At lower price points:
Tudor BB58
Seiko Sarb lineup

Good responses.

I am not a 1 watch guy, but said hey if I would be what would that watch be. For the fund side I would say sub or gmt and have all 3 bezels.

If money was not an issue I am thinking patek nautilus

I would stick with my 16710 blro. Another good option would be a 16610. Clearly, I like 5-digit sports models.

yup I am with you, steel datejust on jubilee with fluted bezel either silver or blue dial and use what's left over for something else. Nice, solid, versatile watch.
