+1 , and that WG with a Leather Strap will the bomb IMO.

SS for me. I'm under 30 and I would feel uncomfortable wearing any PM except for maybe a WG bezel.
Everything at it's time. I'm already very gratefull that I own my two most desirable SS pieces for me personaly at my age.

dave023 · 8 January 2018, 04:33 AM

Except for a daydate I prefer SS.

drmizzou · 8 January 2018, 05:21 AM

SS followed by solid PM the two tone. Although I must say my wife’s recently acquired two tone PM DJ is gorgeous and have started to look at the idea of a two tone in a new light.

HogwldFLTR · 8 January 2018, 05:23 AM

SSs are all done; next on the list (if there was one) is PM.

TheRolexKingofLV · 8 January 2018, 05:27 AM

A PM Daytona is on the short list!

Justindo · 8 January 2018, 01:10 PM

SS sports are the only Rolexes I would purchase.

vladamir15 · 8 January 2018, 02:35 PM

Started with two-tone, want to get a pm piece next and see the appeal of ss now.

Muzz · 8 January 2018, 02:39 PM

I am on the hunt for a SS Exp II Polar next to match my chuck taylors and then either WG DD 40 olive or RM 16 Ti by year end.

I do not base my choices on material but I will say that PT is too heavy for me and I can’t do that again.

timewizard · 8 January 2018, 02:56 PM

2 tone GMT Ceramic
Pulling the trigger; it looks amazing in person and it's going to draw some attention. Also i think it's less likely to be assumed fake since it's 2 tone... Im 26 and people in my city don't really wear nice watches.

rebel_1 · 8 January 2018, 02:58 PM

PM all the way. Just picked up a BLRO and couldn’t be happier!

Pull the trigger now! It’s as amazing as you said and it’s look smart on Rubber B too.

kilyung · 8 January 2018, 04:47 PM

I voted PM because... well it’s who I am. As for what I’d get, I have most of the models or at least the ones that interest me so staying as is until Basel.

encarter13 · 9 January 2018, 12:56 AM

SS because I can't afford PM and TT isn't really my style.

Chadridv · 9 January 2018, 12:58 AM

SS. Cause I have one PM watch and, one is enough for me. I don't think I could ever have enough SS watches lol. oh and gold watches cost more money.

TacticaLCawacoL · 16 January 2018, 11:07 AM

After stainless steel, yellow Rolesor, grey Rolesor, full yellow gold and full grey gold ( Rolex grey gold is unbelievable, i mean the hue... ), i will choose stainless steel.

Boothroyd · 16 January 2018, 11:38 AM

Bang per $. Steel.

DoctorA · 16 January 2018, 12:35 PM

SS to me are more “manly” imho

Canefan1 · 16 January 2018, 01:09 PM

DD 40 Champagne baton.

bradiowausa · 16 January 2018, 02:05 PM

I like the look of stainless steel better. Harder metal, providing a tool watch look and feel.

worldfamoussam · 16 January 2018, 02:36 PM

7% TT! No wonder the resale on them is so poor these days.

Droolex · 16 January 2018, 02:57 PM

I'd go for a Wimbledon DJ 41. Just need something that is a hard turn from a sub.

regnant · 17 January 2018, 08:39 PM

I voted for the stainless steel assuming I could find it which is least likely given the unattainablilty of the watch ⌚

gbpritf · 17 January 2018, 10:13 PM

Always PM if money is not a factor in your scenario.

Sarosh · 17 January 2018, 10:44 PM

Money no object then PM - WG Sub to be precise.

1William · 17 January 2018, 10:53 PM

SS. Best value to dollar ratio for what you have to pay to what residuals are. I own PM watches and while I love them they are not the best for purchase and resale. SS is another story.

beshannon · 17 January 2018, 10:54 PM

I prefer stainless steel.

Same watch same movement, I do not understand the price premium for another metal.

Toivonen · 17 January 2018, 11:30 PM

I already got the diver, a 116660 that is and forever will be my daily h24 7/7 watch, but I would like to have a Daytona, so:
116500 white
or
116508 Newman Dial
:)
