That's a good choice, just what I thought when I acquired my beautiful DateJust...I'd like to get down to just one or two. Well, make that three. Yes, three tops.

116500ln white. All I own now. Only one that would degrail that one for me would be the Platona but that's just out of my league. Even if I saved up enough for it my freinds would think I'm crazy.

I'd have to agree the 116710 BLNR aka Batman! I just love mine. Very nice pic Sohaib.

My one and only, the 16710 BLRO.
I like a few others, but this one is the model for me.

Tough question... To own only one, I'd have to unload 2. And the two that would have to go are the superheroes, Batman and Hulk. I think my Explorer I (214270) could be my lone Rolex. Thank god I don't need to make these decisions for real!

Arguably the most iconic Rolex ever, the Submariner.

I agree with the Batman...most usable Rolex for shakers and movers:)

But if Rolex came out with a Coke GMT Ceramic in steel...I think Batman would have some trouble...

If I had to live with only 1 rolex for the rest of my life, I would be a very sad man.
