116509 blue. Got this one not long ago, looks understated but that suits my personality.

YG DD for sure but white or silver dial ...
Green is not so versatile.

If your budget allows, Platinum Daytona, without question.

I would definitely opt for a currently produced 50th anniversary model....That leaves you with two great options depending on you preferences and budget. The SD43, or the platinum Daytona.

Happy 50th!

Current Collection is
GMT MASTER 16700 Pepsi
Submariner 16613 2 tone blue dial
Date Just II 116333 black dial with romans

Want something in all gold preferable
budget is 30,000 - 35,000
Really love the day date 40 in yellow gold with the green dial!!
Traditionally the 50th is gold and 55th emerald green , your choice is great

Happy Birthday! I'd go Platinum DD with the blue dial or the Platona. I'm hitting 50 in Dec. so we'll see if I follow my own advice.. :)
