Which ceramic?

Hello all,

I am wanting some opinions on what ceramic bezel Rolex to get to round out my collection. Here are the three I am considering.

1. GMT BLNR
2. LVC "Hulk"
3. SubC no date

I think a modern Rolex with a ceramic bezel will be the best addition to my current lineup. Here is a pic of my watches.

My preference would be the BLNR. Nice collection too.

Sub C will round out your Rolex collection. Pure and simple.

Option 3. You already have a good amount of color.

Great collection. You need a simple (no date) watch IMHO, so I vote 114060.

With what you have, I'd go YM 2. I feel like you have the gmc, green sub, and sub covered.
If I had to stick with your choice I'd go sub no date. But that is because it is the most unique choice out if what you own.

Out of those three, I like the LVc best, but for your collection and since you're adding (not flipping), I would do #3 for a more sporty option and #1 for a more dressy option (PCLs).

I am also leaning toward the SubC nd. If I look at what I already have it makes the most sense and it is the least expensive of the three which means I can get it sooner than the others. I tried it on this weekend and it feels like an awesome piece.

On the other hand every time I see the hulk in person I want it too. Ultimately I think I want all three but as a next watch I am still split between SubC and the LVC.

Big fan of all three.
Given your current collection, I'd say the 114060 Sub. All black, clean and classic.

114060-SubC no date. I wear the BLNR, and my Fiance wears a SubC No Date, I think the No Date Sub would compliment your collection well compared to your other choices, that's just my opinion though! Good luck choosing.
