Which one would you pick up if you won Powerball this weekend?
Me? I'd go for this baby....in a flash. Date or no date...who cares? What a beautiful work of art. Man, this baby is listed at NZ$44,000 (around US$31,000) here in Auckland.....White Gold with Meteorite dial.....Droooooool!!! Gotta love those RED hands.

I would buy a PAM 127 and a YG DD and then sit on the beach doing nothing all day long!! I would be the opposite of most people, I would enjoy not playing golf.

WG Day-date, Daytona SS, TT Sub, and possibly another one just for the heck of it.
Actually, I would probably spend my winnings buying a new car first. Depending on how much I won, I would get an FJ Cruiser (if the pot wasn't too big) or a brand new Porsche Carrera Turbo.

Well JJ you do surprise me is not above said watch a chronograph,and if I remember you got rid of a Breitling chronograph.Because of the stationary centre second hand.Now I believe the Rolex chronograph has the same said second hand, or is it now because its Rolex or is it the price.??????.Myself if I won the powerball a vintage Seiko grand or a vintage Rolex Prince for me but pref in S.steel

you'd have to pay me to wear that watch ;) j/k. but i dont wear gold... doesnt look good on me. I might consider picking up a day-date, but i like a 40 mm on my wrist and the day date is a bit too small for me in my opinion

Easy one for me;
All Gold Submariner... then I'd send it off to have the face painted with tiger stripes.

Apart from the meteorite Daytona, I'd love this dial on the brown strap and I'd search for a cream explorer

The winner of the 182 million dollar powerball yesterday was announced today. The man who won lives minutes from my house. He put down $5 for chance. He won. This guy worked for PGE a subsidiary of Enron for 35 years. He lost all his retirement when Enron collapsed and was forced to still be working. He think he is going to finally retire today. His neighbors have been on TV saying how nice of a guy he is. Good for him.
