I have owned a few on that list and my newest is by far the most comfortable on my wrist, and it is my favorite out of your list. The case design on the DJ II is amazing, and this particular dial combo is my favorite out of the entire Rolex collection.

Favorite stainless Rolex
Deep Sea, but it is not on the list! I will have to chose the Yatchmaster II or Daytona! This should be fun to see the results of the poll.

The New Explorer I. Why? I think it's the coolest sport Rolex--symmetry, relatively uncommon that doesn't scream "Oh I have a Rolex", nicely contoured case with no wide/fat lugs like the Sub/ GMT.
It's sleek, handsome, and extremely comfortable/versatile. Though it's a "sport" watch, I think it does dress duty equally as well ...and does it better than any of the new stainless Rolexes, including the DJ. |

I could not have said the above any better! Some of the more popular models scream: 'I have a Rolex' and in the UK, worn unfortunately by a certain type of person, usually with 'new' money, blonded girls, loud mouthed and black Mercs! A relative of mine has an Explorer 11, although not normally worn by the above types, still means it is rarely worn by him in public, only on family occasions. He feels he does not want to be 'typed' in public. It would seem to be a fact that people with 'real' money and class in the UK do not buy Rolex! At all times and places, I feel very much at ease with my Explorer 39mm, which I wear 24/7! |

So you're saying because you wear a more classic Explorer, you have class and "real" money while others who wear more modern Rolex, do not? ![]() |

For me, the 116710BLNR is currently my favourite SS model. Adding blue to half the bezel and the 24hr hand brings a little more character and pop to the GMTIIc. Very unique in it's own way.

None of them is perfect.
Get me a SD 16600 with maxi dial/hands and the new bracelet. That would be my perfect Rolex. |
