Really, really tough choice. I have more history with my 16710, and I truly
Love it to bits, but I just can’t seem to take this one off.

Despite all the top brands pieces that I have owned.
Without a moments hesitation it would be the watch that my late Mom and three beautiful daughters bought me:clap

I have to say that I would probably keep my Planet Ocean. Why? Great question. Here’s my line of logic....

First, if I needed to come down to just one piece that means that a significant event has happened in my life. Perhaps I’ve fallen on financially hard times. Maybe health issues. Etc. So being that this is one of my least expensive piece allows me to free up resources to use elsewhere.

Secondly, the PO checks all the boxes for me as a one-watch solution. Beautiful, robust, accurate, incredible water resistance, and suitable in most environments. So it could truly be an “only watch”

And last, I simply love it. I think I can wear it for the rest of my life and never tire of it.

Well, I probably overthought this question....but there ya’ go.

The sensible one to keep would be the OP39, but . . . .

I wouldn't even know where to begin...

If I was trying to save money, I would probably keep the EXP2.

If it was a case of just picking one, i would probably keep the BLRO.

Notice I said "probably."

I went through this. I got into watches and wanted something that had a little pop aka orange PO then got into Rolex. I tried a BLNR solely off the bezel. Finally I wanted to be a one watch guy and wanted a classic that is timeless. 2 years ago got the 116610ln and no regrets. I think the only other timeless Rolex’s I would buy would be the explorer or the black ceramic white dial Daytona. Yes I know the Daytona is new, but I already think that color scheme is not over the top and will become a classic.

Has to be my black 42mm Explorer II. The watch I always want to wear regardless of what else is in the stable. Also the only watch I never consider flipping.
