SS Daytona

Dan Pierce · 30 June 2009, 04:23 AM

The classic GMT II for obvious reasons.

Gob Bluth · 30 June 2009, 04:29 AM

Sea Dweller b/c of the weight, thickness, lack of cyclops, classic Rolex design/style, etc, etc.

ansharma · 30 June 2009, 04:47 AM

16610 sub. Puts a smile on my face when I put it on =D

Idle Swede · 30 June 2009, 04:52 AM

9630 puts a smile on MY face..

But then again, so does the 16528, 16618, 1803 & 18248

i2onnel · 30 June 2009, 04:55 AM

Submariner... Self explanatory.

GMT-II is a very close runner up!

marke · 30 June 2009, 04:56 AM

fav wants: 1680 red sub
1665 sea dweller
16660 sea dweller
5512 sub
5513 matt dialed sub
and a birth year watch from 1963...

greenfan · 30 June 2009, 05:00 AM

The GMT II. It was the only ROLEX I wanted to buy.

sexner · 30 June 2009, 05:03 AM

GMT IIc

Rambam · 30 June 2009, 05:03 AM

My Sub LV

Alot of watches have come and gone, but this one will always stay. My first expensive watch and my first Rolex. Bought it for mye 30. Birthday after saving up for years and years.
Took this picture of it today

Yume-sama · 30 June 2009, 05:04 AM

The DayDate in all of its variations (even II with the right bezel... diamond encrusted

). Followed by YG (or WG) Sub and the Milgauss GV... it just looks so good in photos

2th Dr · 30 June 2009, 05:11 AM

SS GMT IIc.

I don't know exactly what it is about this watch. It's just the complete package for me I guess.

AIKO · 30 June 2009, 05:30 AM

A toss up between the Sub LV and EXP II. Love the design of both, super reliable and tough as nails.

PhilM · 30 June 2009, 05:42 AM

SD at the moment as it was my first

karmatp · 30 June 2009, 06:25 AM

It would have to be between the classic GMT II and the Sub. Tough to pick just one.

barstoolman · 30 June 2009, 06:55 AM

Enough said!!!!!!

mike · 30 June 2009, 08:11 AM

Joel,

I thought you bought the 218206..??

Jason71 · 30 June 2009, 08:30 AM

My A-Serial SeaDweller. Lug-holes, keeps great time. TOTALLY a tool watch.

Joelmor · 30 June 2009, 08:32 AM

Hi Leo,
No, I didn't go with the platinum.
Stuck with WG. I actually like the fluted bezel better. . the plain polished bezel of the PT was the deal breaker - so I saved a few bucks too!!

Depends on the occassion. For relaxation, the DSSD, for work, my TT jubilee DJ.
