It's the Datjust, but here at TRF I believe it's the Sub.

I would say the Datejust as a clear winner followed by the Submariner then the GMT

TT DJ. Look at any AD's cases. There is probably 20 DJ's for every Sub in the case.

Datejust pwns [sic].

In this tiny little insignificant sliver of a community here on TRF and around the web, the Sub is the most popular. But in the vastness of the world outside of the web, it's the Datejust that pwns [sic].

Definitely DJ because it is classic.
No, it has to be the Sub, it is iconic.
I am wrong, unmistakably Daytona is the coolest.
But, but, Day-Date rules!

What kind of question is it on Sunday morning? My brain hurts!

According to JD the TT ladies DJ is the most popular seller. If I remember correctly it accounts for one half of sales. But I might not be remember that part correctly.

Iconic has nothing to do with it.......most popular, by sales would clearly be the Datejust.

Most of us are here because of the Sub, but I actually believe that the Datejust is the biggest seller/money maker for Rolex, Inc. Then and now.

but DJ is by far the most popular...my father and many others like him, only identify the DJ as a Raolex..they do not understand why ppl spend thousands on 'sports' watches..hehe

Datejust by a country mile, mainly due to it's relative affordability, massive potential of options and choice of sizes. Although the Datejust as a family of models sell in large numbers, if you go a little off the beaten track with regards to dial/bracelet/bezel choices, you can actually have a relatively unique watch. I see loads of watches whenever I'm working, but in the 3 years I've been on the shopfloor, I've never seen one identical to mine. The DJ is a hugely underrated gem in the Rolex lineup, if you ask me

It's the Datejust.

It's a model that appeals to both men and women where as a model like the Sub is primarily a men's watch (with a few exeptions these days).

Yeh...I have to admit, I see more Datejusts in the wild than any other rolex models..

It's just funny that the Sub seems to be everybody's favourite at the forum...
