3. And Finally, the air-king, i see not point on this model.
   
4. And i will always try to stay away of two tone models (Except a SUB with blue dial)
   

What about you guys? Please be kind, i know i just a matter of taste, but Rolex owners seems to be passionate about their models.

Waiting for the opinios and the

Thanks!

1. Yachtmaster in any form.
2. Milgauss
3. Daytona

AirKing & MIlgauss... nope. Never. Ever.

I cant believe all the YM ll dislikes... I don't personally own one, but I have always thought it was a very cool watch.

[dominic.warren]

I would never buy a stolen watch! That just sounds like a bad idea. Everything else is fair game.

1. Cellini ( I find there are other dress type watches that I like better)
2. DSSD ( cool overengineered watch-- just too thick and the lack of A/R coating on this particular watch is the best example why Rolex needs A/R on the underside of the crystal )
3. Milgauss ( handsome! watch --that I actually owned-- but probably the most top heavy watch I've ever experienced...leading to discomfort)
4. No gems or yellow gold
5. YM II--too big and looks toyish IMO.
6. Daytonas--I think most chronos from most brands, including Rolex, look alike. The busier a dial, the more it blends into the crowd of chronographs IMO.

In my post i gave my opinion, and the rule is clear - Respect the opinion, that is how it starts.... I did not said anything about someone else watch... Perhaps we have diferent interpretation of the rules... But saying i would not buy a specific model is my opinion, and again should be respected.

Perhaps you didn't say anything, but you've invited the comments of several of those who have...in so doing the overall tone of this thread is negative.

Yes, some can cite their opinions without offense to others, but some cannot.

I love and own the YMII, which is taking a beating here; in blingy YG at that. It's a fun watch to wear. On the other hand, I am embarrassed by the looks of the YM I. (Yes, the 1).

Other than that, I would wear most anything if it landed on my wrist.

Definitely, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It's great that all of us don't like the same, one watch and style. Life would be boring if we did.

And there should be no space for such things as new or old members, no one should be pointed because it stared a topic that not everyone found helpfull or positive. This is the basic of a forum, generate talking and friendship, I would sit and have a beer with anyone wearing a yatch-master 2, because he share the same passion about watches that I have, but that does not stop me saying that i do not like the design of his watch and vice versa, is just a matter of taste, and probably we will laugh and enjoy our time discussing our watches. Like or dislike a particular model is not a negative thing, is a opinion. If i did ofended anyone please accept my apologies. My 0.2c

Haters are going to hate.... I agree with this 100% and I personally like the thread and am surprised by some of the watches people dislike, however I have not read anything negative, it is just opinions.

[AK797]

The one thing I would say about these threads which always turn negative and confrontational, are that people should be respectful and that no one should reply to another post as this just leads to arguments, better to just state your point. I concede these threads are useful for newbies trying to find their way and the pulse of the forum but not much use to others.

I'll never buy a YM II, a DSSD and a SkyDweller: just too big for my wrist.

[Leodagan]

Fluted bezel
Anything smaller than 39 mm
A black sub (too many on the market and too many fake or sub like)
Cellini

[Defiancekofb]

Invicta

[aayates]

Any Cellini; in sport models I'd say ymii

[LostInTime]

I'm afraid the Deep Sea Sea Dweller and Milgaus are not for me. While I appreciate the technical aspects of said watches, my preference leans heavily towards classic looks and shapes. The Sea Dweller is just too big for my liking, and I do not care for all of the writing on it. The Milgaus is simply not a style I prefer. Just one person's opinion, so no offense intended.

Interestingly enough, I would also not own a jubilee bracelet. However, I do appreciate seeing them on other people - they have that cool old school vibe.

[whitegene]

YM seems to be the favorite not to own Rolex. I have to agree with the rest here.

hulk....the green is hideous, imho

....if you own one or like the hulk it's fine, i mean no disrespect, period, it's not one i would buy....

[IAN1]

Ym 116655.

[osamu]

tough to say never to any of them, but I would probably say any Yellow Gold Diver or GMT. For some reason, I just never thought yellow gold and sports watches matched. Although I love the RG Yachtmaster and RG Daytona, so maybe my taste will change. But factoring in the price of a full gold watch, I just don't think I'll ever buy one, when there are a lot of other brands I would go to in that price range.

Root beer gmt
Yachtmaster
Cellini

totally agree and might I add, that I would never buy a watch that someone is prepared to give me!

I can say with a high degree of certainty that this one will never ever find it's way on my wrist. Not even just to try it on.

[Jack T]

Not a fan of the Milgaus, most of the other models have an iteration I like.

Surprised how many are saying 'No' to the Explorer. It's not flashy, but as a daily wearer, reliable, versatile, durable and discreet, it can't be beat. Maybe not a first choice, but never?

And the new Air King is definitely worth a second look.

[jkf2112]

36mm Rolesor Datejust on jubilee (obviously).

[GB-man]

Anything two tone....

Dssd

If they release a TT DSSD I'm going to faint

[Bafflingbs]

Explorer, DD Roman numerals (OCD)

[RRGHOST1]

Not fussed on straps of any kind, bracelet models yes. I would have any Rolex, every model is unique. I am surprised at the bashing YM II and ExplorerII's are getting.

[BLACKHORSE 6]

Milgauss
