1 Rolex or 1 Omega and 1 Tudor????

[Doood]

If it were me, I would buy the watch that I would be the most excited to own and wear, and certainly only one at a time.

I’m with everyone else, get the BLNR because that’s the one you truly want.

I was going through a similar dilemma myself. I wanted 1 great watch that I will wear constantly. A buddy offered me a really great deal on a Planet Ocean and I nearly got it because of the deal, but I passed. I knew I’d still lust after the Sub ND I had my heart set on. Then I almost settled for a Speedy because I was stressing over the Sub’s price tag.

One last trip to the AD to try on the Sub, I asked to also try on an Explorer II in black and I knew right away that everything else would pale in comparison to that EXII. If I got anything else besides the EXII, I’d be flipping away until I got it.

Get the BLNR, it’s calling to you.

I have all 3 watches(Rolex, Tudor & Omega SpeedMaster) that you are considering. They're all superb and the difference of each is what makes them so special. I'm sure you will be satisfied with anyone that you choose but I would go with the one you desire most! If you have the opportunity to try them on at an AD to be able to compare, I'm sure your choice will be fantastic! Good luck!

If I were to go the other route I would buy an Omega Moon Watch and I'm uncertain what Tudor I would buy. I had even thought about buying 2 Omegas. I have been to my AD a few times now trying on various models of Rolex watches and the fit and finish on them are just incredible. My question for you guys is would you buy 1 Rolex or 2 other nice watches? Thanks for any help

You not think you've answered your own question here?

Another point; if you''re thinking of adding a Tudor but don't know which model and canvassing opinion on here then you're not ready.

Either pick up the BLNR, because that's where your heart seems to be, or sit on your hands for a while until you've made your mind up.

OK BLNR is the best answer

[lord91]

One Rolex, without a doubt.

[Stevec14]

I've been there and done that, and like many flipped the others to buy the Rolex I really wanted. I'd go with what you want here, as you will likely end up spending more when you consider the cost of the flips (I know I did).

Another scenario, if you buy the Rolex it will be easier to save and add the other laters. If you buy the Omega and Tudor it will be tougher to get the Rolex later because of the cost.

Spot on!

BLNR. Nothing more to add that hasn't already been said.

I think that the BLNR is a fine watch and I have almost purchased it several times but have not. I think that the GMT-LN is one of the few hidden values in the Rolex line-up and depending on how you purchase it you could save 3k from the price of the BLNR. I own a Omega Speedmaster and a Tudor Black Bay and both are great watches. They are not Rolexes, and that is the point, not a draw back in my opinion. For the money, I believe that Tudor is one of the best watches on the market and for me is where Rolex was before the prices went crazy. The Omega Speedmaster is an Iconic model and as collectable as the Submariner. As a 25 plus year collector I understand the draw of wanting that first watch and it being right. You may only buy that one and hold but if you are on this forum you may have already been bitten by the watch bug. If so, what ever you pick will not be your last. I can not say don't buy the BLNR but an alternative might be to walk it up as opposed to walk it down. Pick up the Black Bay from a Trusted Seller. In-House movement and riveted bracelet. Wear it, enjoy and see where you go. The Speedmaster and BLNR will be there and after some significant wrist time, 6 months, you will know.

You will always wonder if you should have bought the Rolex. Do that. Besides, if you think later on it was the wrong move it will cost you less/no money to get out and obtain the other two versus the other way around. Win /Win

I would go functionality with whichever watch you choose out of the three proposed . All great watches but the GMT is so versatile and is the complete all rounder & has the all important date function .Which for me the other two choices don't , it is one of the must have Rolex in any collection .

This. The three of those would make a nice collection, just build it up.

[GMT Aviator]

It's an Enigma.

You have to possess all three.

[teb1013]

I started with a Black Bay and almost immediately added a Rolex. It’s my guess that although the Black Bay and Speedy make a nice rotation, you won’t be happy until you get the GMT

No brainer 100% a Rolex

[rickytz7111]

Thank You all for the comments. It looks like I will be going with just the 1 Rolex. Thanks again
