Was visiting my AD and one of the owners had a GV on with a suit and it looked VERY nice. But, the other owner had a SD on with his suit. THAT looked so nice I bought it from him! So, I think you can dress any Rolex up or down, depending on the occassion.

I generally wear a suit Mon.-Fri. at the office, and I have worn my Sub's, GMTII-C; Milgaus, DJ and DD all with no problems. However, I would note that the DD, DJ or Milgauss work best with French cuffs, as sometimes the bezels on the Subs or GMT get hung-up on the cuff and don't fit so neatly under the cuff.

DJ looks good with a suit. But, I have also worn my GMT, Subs, Explorer 1 and Sea-Dweller with suits also.

I agree with everyone here that just about any Rolex can work just fine. No coincidence though that I think the TT Bluesy gets the job done pretty well.

Explorer 1 looks very nice under a suit.
Soon available in a bigger size for those that think 36mm is too small. |

[QUOTE=Lol-x;1991685]There is no single best Rolex to wear with a suit IMHO, there are quite a few as already stated. Even a Daytona works well in a suit and tie.
X2, In fact my Daytona is my choice whenever I wear a suit.

They would all look good, but the best would probably be anything with a fluted bezel!

In my collection, I think the daytona takes the cake with a suit.

My first choice would be any DJ with a fluted bezel but I agree with the poster that mentioned the TT blue Sub. Two guys in the office wear theirs every day and look great.

Hugely recommend the Milgauss with black dial/clear crystal.
I am most definitely Not a fan of the GV, but the black dial model practically redefines elegance when worn with a suit.
