Question for Mike ??

So Mike, we all admire your large collection and your superb photography skills on this forum.

Question, out of all your Rolex Watches you have, which one do you wear daily or the wear the most?

LOL! Too funny Mike!!

Thanks for the great comment! Actually while I do wear each on occassion these three get by far the most use,

The 1680 lumi dial, I "grew up" on plastic and this one gives me the vintage look and the practicality of a luminesent dial.


When I need a "hard use" watch The LV gives the practicality of sapphire and the added readability of the Maxi-dial.


When I want a GMT, the 1675 has worked great for a long time.

Mike,
on what occasion or circumstance will you wear your Daytona?
Which watch would be your least worn one and why so?

Great photo as I will have my new SUB LV on my wrist in less than 2 weeks!

Not really what some would consider a dress watch, but for me the Daytona fills the bill.


Ironically my most accurate watch is the one that is worn the least. My 1680 Red is dead on, but because Rolex is so fussy about servicing certain vintage pieces I'm very carefull with it.

I would venture to guess all the Irish men/women own one of these.
