Top Rolex watches

Hi ive always been a fan of the sub 116610 and 116618, also like the BLNR. Which Rolex watches would you consider to be the current top ones of 2017?
For Owners: how it looks, feel, functions etc
Non Owners: which would be your first best pick
For Dealers: best selling



*PS i also made another thread in (Open Discussion section) about others watches other then rolex, you believe is also a top watch.

Top or best is subjective, all depends on where you place value - if you need certain functions, or you prefer certain metals, or you desire harder to find pieces. We are all different, and have different requirements.

I've owned BLNR, Sub C date, DJ41 Blue dial , Daytona Ceramic 116500LN white dial.

Out of all those my favourite would be the Daytona C white.

Don't know if that helps you, just my 2 cents!

Any top Rolex or any other watch is the one you want to own and wear on your own wrist.There is no such thing as top Rolex or any other watch as they all tell the time only main difference brand name on the dial and the price.

The top watch is whatever the purchaser decides is the best fit for him.

Demand-wise, the Daytona ceramic, SD43, and steel Sky-Dweller are all selling above MSRP in the secondary market right now. But...does that mean they're top?
