Sub C. It’s the most classic Rolex.

Get the GMT II LN, kind of a blend of all 3 watches.

Sub or the GMTII. There is no wrong choice.

it's a subjective question. you ask the question to 100 people, you'll get 100 different opinion.
buy the one you like the most. |

Hell of a good point. Although it's been said before, try them on and you'll know. I have the GMT LN and the Explorer II and if I could only have one it would be the Explorer II all day long.
All great choices though. Good luck deciding! |

I’d vote Sub.
But agree to try them all on first before making final decision. |

They each have their own personality...or vibe, if you will.
You just need to tune into each one and see which clicks with you. |

I own a Polar 42 and a SubC but if I were to have one out of your three choices I'd have to go for the GMT LN

If function is not your concern, go with the one you like best.
IMO, it’s difficult to beat the Submariner |

If you don't need the second time zone function, the sub all the way.

No bad choice. I would go with the Polar Explorer II in 42 mm. To me it is a sleeper in the Rolex line-up and can be had for a discount and a very fair price in the pre-owned market. And you do not see one on a lot of wrists.
