116264 Futures Market

I have learned a few thing.

1. I love 36mm.
2. I love a small amount of red on the dial.
3. I love a good deal.

This has led me to hunt for a TOG.

I would like to solicit some advice on what to grab. I am thinking in the 2005 year range.

I like the white on Jubilee and the slate on Oyster. What does everyone see as the best buy and hold for years down the line as far as bracelet/dial combo?

Thanks everyone!!

You've got to get one of the Japan-only models. Had a spectacular green seconds hand

TOG with super jubilee, just the bracelet can interchange with other oyster models, get an extra set of corresponding end links.
Blue for me, otherwise white the triple red is smashing.
Lettering, seconds hand and date wheel.

Japan white/green is highly sort after.

stick with the 11 series as those have the red second hand and limited production years.
116261, 116263, 116264. White dial is the best and the sharpest witht he red dial as contract. Oyster Band is better as this is a cross over tool watch.
