The Most Versatile Rolex
In your opinion, what is the most versatile Rolex? If you could own only one, to go with everything you wear, what model would it be?

T shirt and shorts or a Tux, this one works for me. Sporty enough to be casual but blingy enough for evenings:

Yes. Also... solid center links on the bracelet gives it a heavier, sturdier feel.

That YM is one really looking watch! Does it have the maxi dial? The minute hand looks a little larger than standard. So 40mm, just appears a little smaller. What is the height?

I would vote for the SS/PLT YM with the Explorer as a close second.
