What would you rather have poll
Would you rather have 4 modern SS rolex....or any full gold Rolex + 1 SS. What specific watch combination would you pick?
4 ceramic Daytonas is not an option |

You should probably have made this an actual poll.
I'd rather have one gold and one stainless steel. I'm not one to rotate through watches --f I have a favorite, that's the one I'm going to wear. Having four SS watches wouldn't work for me, because I'm not interested in enough models to justify taking my Daytona off my wrist! |

tough, I'd probably rather have 4 stainless steel watches if you include different brands (i.e one Rolex, one Blancpain, one grand seiko, and if can afford one AP or PP).
But if talking strictly Rolex, I can't think of 4 SS pieces I'd really want to own, and therefore I'd go one gold. |

One full gold and one stainless steel for me. My choices would be as follows:
1. Day-Date in any size (36mm is my preference) 2. GMT Master II 116710 BLNR or Submariner 114060

Agree with the above If you get the DD36 at a good price you can probably grab a second SS piece as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I've gone from four Rolexes sports watches (stainless steel) to a Day-Date and Prince, both in white gold. For a 'tough' watch, bought a Grand Seiko diver.
For me, these days, the Rolex to own is a white gold Day-Date 40. |

At the moment, I dream of too many SS pieces and not a single specific gold model, so 4 for me.

I don't really like gold (white or especially yellow) for the weight or softness....so always will stick with more stainless variations if at all possible. But I am running out of stainless ones I want on Rolex so who knows maybe in the future might add some precious metal.

I'd only choose a pm model if it's a DD and a Sub.
Otherwise, give me 4 ss models.

I now have 7 ss and tt rolexes. I often think that I should consolidate but really like the entire collection. Plus I will start giving some away to my boys and ss is fine for them.
