If money was no object... which one Rolex watch would you pick for your SO? your son/daughter? Yourself?

At the risk of shocking a few, I think I think I'd pick:

SO: Lady DJ (pink gold, smooth, roman)

Son: Sub Date (SS)

Daughter: Med DJ (TT, flut., roman)

Me: DJ (SS, smooth roman)

Oh BOY...I love this kind of question...
Just one for me
MILITARY SUB with complete b&p and near mint condition.

padi56 · 12 October 2008, 04:38 AM

Well it certainly would not be a modern day Rolex, a very simple 1930s early 1940s Rolex Prince doctor style dial, pref S.steel but would have a silver or a TT if price was right.

I would also add a yellow gold DJ 116234.

For my lady the DJ with the rubber strap with diamonds set in it - a bit odd perhaps and quite blingy - but she has light brown skin and it would look fantastic against her skin tone.

My son is only 9 but I would put away a SS Sub for him.

Meteorite Daytona on a brown leather strap

In order to have your dream watch, is to work for Saddam and wait for him to forget something. Can anyone verify this history?
