Depends on what you want. If you want an annual calander get a sky dweller. If you want accurate timing ability get the ym 2. And if you want a diver with history get the gold sub.

You can't go wrong any way. But imo get the skydweller on bracelet not strap.

The Skydweller would be the most unique and interesting of the three, the Sub has the most history and is certainly an icon. You can't go wrong with either. The YMII is built for a very specific purpose and might be a little busy outside of timing regattas (personal opinion.)

Kinda depends on the rest of the collection...but I would be hard pressed to go against the gold sub.

LB sunburst dial for the win.

Sky dweller RG would be my choice. It's sensational in the metal.

YM II only if it's in yellow gold or even SS variant of it as I am not fond of rose gold

YG Sub. A true classic and a hard to beat option. All things also being equal the price of the sub will be less also.
