Best one and done PM Rolex?
Hey all as per the title, if you could have one Rolex in precious metal as your only one and done (within budget) - which would it be and why? (Note: pretend the world is a safe place so no worries wearing anywhere)

Gold Daytona with oysterflex. Love the design of it and the gold clasp that balances the opposing gold case. Looks very well balanced in design and the black/gold is a classy combo.

I have my PM Daytona from many years ago so I’m very satisfied with it.

There are so many choices. It would depend on your preference between classic and professional, as well as the vibe you're going for and what else is in the collection.

Platinum DD 40 or DD2 41mm are very fine choices as long as the dial is powder blue…

126718 GRNR.
If I were to keep just one watch, this would be a contender. Looks great in yellow gold and Jubilee bracelet adds some flash. Sport watch case and clasp afford durability and GMT complication adds utility. It’s a winner. ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a few I can achieve, but not sure I’d be done ..
1. Platinum Daytona, for me the ultimate. 2. John Mayer green dial Daytona. 3. Meteorite Pepsi or Daytona. For me these are the 3 best I could possibly get, I would be happy with any of them ..

116519LN - it’s about as subtle as the PM watches get with the Oysterflex and white gold and love the dial.
