Probably these three (but the SDc would be too tough to give up).



My sentimental favorite, so can’t part with this one...

116500 white or black 116520....116600 sd4k....and the BLNR. Assuming that's all I get and no more.

That’s at retail. Current reality means almost $50K worth of watches...

I like the way you think ...

These 3 are my trifecta Rolex timepieces:

116500 Daytona white
116600 SD4K
116710 BLNR

Fortunately, all at MSRP....
but unfortunately $1,750 over the $30k threshold. Oh well :)

It's funny that for the Patek guys like me, Thomas and Stephen this is the trio we like the most... and as such I'm sure we could get that $700 off.

It’s not just another SS Rolex, it’s the SS BLRO for goodness sake! You should get one, Neil. I promise you will wonder why you dilly dallied.

I hear you Steve, but with the 5164 I have three SS which is a lot for a PM guy like me. I'm more likely to pick up the CHNR.

Understood, but the jubilee bracelet is the trump card here. Don’t underestimate it. ❤️

love it and nearer the mark than the question posed - more chance of being served by a unicorn than buying 3 stainless steel sport watches at list price

Retail? Like, in a pretend world where I could get Rolex website pricing? That's pretty easy, for me.


$11,350


$9,250


$9,050

I have $350 left over for a strap or something.

My exact calculation. I already have a Daytona but would welcome the other three if I could get them all at AD MSRP.

Sub-C "No-Date"
Pepsi GMT
Daytona White

3 Different functions and looks. I'd be tempted to go Batman instead of Pepsi but the Pepsi is so different (jubilee, no black on the bezel, slightly more tapered lugs) that it makes more sense.

I'd go with the White Daytona as it'd separate itself from the black dials. Watch would also look quite different to the standard Oyster Case divers/gmts.

Sub-C "No-Date" as the one I'd wear the most.

I'd be tempted to get an Explorer I instead of the Daytona but I feel there is too much overlap with the Sub.

Here are the 3 choices:

1. 126710BLRO@ $9,250 (Air)
2. 126600 @ $11,350 (Sea)
3. 116500LN @ $12,400 (Land)

I guess I'm over by $3000 not including taxes...LOL but who cares it's my dream lineup.
