Rolex you’re least likely to purchase and not a fan of
I can admire and appreciate every Rolex watch, however, the one watch that is least appealing to me is the Yacht Master II. I don’t find it appealing, at 44mm it’s alittle big for my taste and the compass look isn’t attractive in my personal opinion. What are your least favorite Rolex watches? If any!

The Rolex Cellini watches never did anything for me (no disrespect to any owners). The Cellini line seems like a bit of a struggle for Rolex compared to everything else. My 2 cents. Cheers!

Anyway this is the good thing of Rolex, there are different stiles available to choose to our taste. This is my personal taste... |

Not a fan of these threads that will inevitably knock some forum members' watch choices. For example, we do have leopard Daytona owners on TRF.

I have a very small wrist and wanted to buy the Seadweller 43mm, I'm not buying it because its huge for my wrist size. I'm still a big fan of this watch though.
Ok...............maybe I didn't buy it because its so hard to get :) |

There's actually quite a few I don't care for and would never pay money for. Out of respect to any owners of them here, I don't like to speak poorly of any watches.
At the end of the day, it only matters that your watch puts a smile on your face. |

I hate the YM2. I’d be glad to own any of the other men’s references.

Slinging mud in 5 posts? Me gives no s@@t what you think of the YMII. Compass? No wonder you hate it, you don't understand what it does.
Do we need him here? Little value seen that he will provide in the future. Little = 0. |

-Any men's watch with stones on the case/bracelet
-Any pro-series watch with stones on dial -YM II -DSSD (ring of writing around dial ruins it) -Air King (dial practically seizure-inducing) |

There are several models that don't appeal to me but out of respect for any owners I won't say which ones. That's the great thing about this Rolex passion we share on TRF. We can all have our own preferences.

I like Rolex.
I do not like these type threads due to they can tend to rub reference owners wrong. We all have different tastes, that’s part of what makes life interesting. |
