SS Daytona Black, SeaDweller, Yacht-Master, and Submariner (I know I got greedy with the 4th) :-).

dddrees · 5 April 2011, 08:55 AM

Do you have to stop at 3?

Rollie2011 · 5 April 2011, 10:20 AM

Sub C- Have

Daytona- Want

GMT IIC- Want

My ideal collection- a diver, chronograph and GMT

sea-dweller · 5 April 2011, 10:55 AM

Explorer 1, Daytona and Sub Date (non-ceramic)

warrior · 5 April 2011, 11:11 AM

Explorer I, Sea Dweller, and GMTII pre ceramic. Sub ND just gets edged out....

ecsub44 · 5 April 2011, 11:15 AM

14060
Milgauss GV
Explorer I

jizeal · 5 April 2011, 02:21 PM

I figured the Daytona was going to be a top choice but I am surprised about the SUB-C being a second favorite since there are multiple threads bashing the new design. Bit shocked the SD isn't a top choice either, I guess people are after the latest and greatest. Let's see how this goes the rest of the week. Hopefully this can give Steve (LOL-X) an idea of the watch we would all like him to raffle.

Daytona 94 60.26%
Submariner (ceramic) 62 39.74%
GMT II (ceramic) 57 36.54%
Submariner (pre-ceramic) 50 32.05%
Explorer I or II 44 28.21%
SeaDweller (OLD) 37 23.72%
GMT II (pre-ceramic) 33 21.15%
Milgauss 31 19.87%
Deepsea (NEW) 29 18.59%
Yacht-Master 25 16.03%

Bmonroy17 · 5 April 2011, 03:05 PM

1. Pre-Ceramic Sub
2. Milgauss non GV
3. GMT IIC "next purchase"
3.5 Exp II Polar (own but not on my list of top three)

My top three are very different from each other and should be in every collection.

But it's doing better than the DSSD.

Good point... surprisingly the DSSD is just as popular as the yacht-master which isnt saying much since both are at the bottom.

Maybe the DSSD will be a collector item in the future based on our scientific findings

osjd · 5 April 2011, 03:49 PM

Explorer, SubC (green only), SubSS (also green)

bigfei · 5 April 2011, 04:12 PM

daytona, 16610lv, exp II

LWRN · 5 April 2011, 04:16 PM

1. Explorer I 39mm
2. Daytona white w/bezel job that guy did in the mod thread
3. SubC LN w/black, green, and blue bezels

Rolex116520 · 5 April 2011, 05:05 PM

I have the 116520 white dial , the 116660 so maybe a GMT next ? No funds a for that at the moment anyway so I may have a look at that new EXP when it becomes available .
Tempted to go vintage GMT too

Stengah · 5 April 2011, 05:39 PM

I'd get black dial Daytona, a 16610, and white dial Milgauss. That covers everything I am interested in.

GeoGio Greece · 5 April 2011, 06:06 PM

I currently have the 2 out of the three.

I am moving towards the 3rd !

What that can be ??

5513 / 0 - 1983
16700 - 1993
??????? - 2003

hoops10 · 5 April 2011, 06:19 PM

Mine would be the GMT Master II and the sub No Date. Currently have a SS Daytona white face.

Puffy · 5 April 2011, 07:16 PM

Great poll!

Interesting to see the Daytona is still a very desirable watch..

1. Exp II 16570
2. Sub 16610
3. GMT 16710

tattooedfagin · 5 April 2011, 07:58 PM

Daytona (black dial) / Submariner (Green ceramic Hulk) / and Milgauss (GV), although the call of a Pam 279 is strong

speedo · 5 April 2011, 09:29 PM

my choice would be a sub c lv, a milgauss gv or a white face and a daytona (different dial than the milie) just to have a chrono.
but to be honest, i would be happy with any 3 rolexes no matter what the combination is.

bewithabob · 5 April 2011, 09:47 PM

My choices are
1) Black Dial Daytona
2) GMTIIC
3) DateJust - wish you had you this one on your poll...

Gerardus · 5 April 2011, 09:52 PM

My 3 favorites:
1/ no doubt EX2 40mm red hand (black or white are equal)
2/ Sub-C
3/ DS

Rags · 5 April 2011, 09:56 PM

I like watches with a clean dial so for me it would be:
1. Submariner
2. Explorer I
3. Yacht Master

chrisc6 · 6 April 2011, 03:25 AM

As I have one already, a SS Sub with date, I will list the three additional watches I would like to have.

1. SS Datejust with new style jubilee bracelet.
2. GMT Master II Pepsi ( Coke would be a alternate).
3. Omega 42mm PO with Orange bezel.

Its funny seeing the Daytona and sub-c being the top 2 pieces people want in their collections. I remember a lot of posts not favoring the the sub-c and the Daytona. Anyways I am happy to see that my collection picks are with the status quo.

Rolex116520 · 21 April 2011, 05:33 PM

So far I have the Daytona white dial and the Deepsea . I was toying with the idea about getting a GMT2c next just to have a model with a different complication to it . For financial reasons it was not on the cards at the moment . Recent events may change this sooner than expected , but now there is that new EXP with that same complication . I'll wait to see how that one grabs me when I get a chance to try it on .
I know that that will be the end of my modern Rolex collection and will in years to come turn towards the " Curmudgeon " approved vintage models .

z32turbo · 21 April 2011, 10:44 PM

Sub-C
Sub
GMT-C

mike · 21 April 2011, 10:50 PM

GMT IIc.16610LV. The new EXP II.

I have two of three....for now.

KarlFr · 21 April 2011, 10:50 PM

Voted SubC (hulk), GMT IIc (TT), and the upcoming Exp II 42mm

THose are on my shopping list, and since I've already got a daytona, sub LV and Milgauss I didn't vote for those (othrwise I would have, because they are the best Rolex ever made in my opinion)
