Not sure... Once Had a sub as an only watch and it was perfect but can't imagine going back... Could make a case for each of these as the keeper.

Conundrum... my Seamaster that is my first nice watch and I bought after closing a big deal. My IWC Portugese that was a wedding gift. My brand new GMTIIc NR that was (justified as) a 10th wedding anniversary present. I have too many attachments to my watches to get rid of any. But, in all I'd probably keep the Omega. It is a rugged tool watch but also is good enough in a dressy situation. That kind of describes the Rolex too... this is hard.

Thanks brother, and I know what you mean we had Ken just get a Blue Subc and I missed it due to travelling and poor internet.

This one. My wife gave it to me as a wedding present, I'll never get rid of it. Luckily it's awesome and very versatile!

I would have to go with the Platona. It is so versatile. Can be worn with a suit, a night on the town, and even to the beach. Plus, there is just something so satisfying about platinum.
