Show Us Your Favorite Rolex

Many of us on this forum are lucky enough to own more than 1 Rolex watch (some many) …

show us your favorite Rolex watch.

My favorite, though I do not wear it that often, is my Rolex Submariner 126613LB “Bluesy” …

That’s my everyday watch, and my “if I only owned 1 watch” …
but it’s just hard to stop looking at the Bluesy … even if I only wear it once a month.

Yes, the Lb is a great watch as well and a one and only for many!

Too bad (or good) that Rolex makes so many worthy distractions

So beautiful. It looks perfect on you. I am starting to give up on getting one. It's been over 18 months since my AD said they would get me one (while we were buying my wife's Rolex) and it's been 24 months since I first contacted them to get on their list. I don't think they are calling...

I truly hope they do contact you soon. I wouldn't give up hope as we've been seeing more incomings as of late.

I guess the other alternative is to go gray as the prices have come down a bit.

Best of luck to you

124060, because it's my only one currently; but I never wear it because my BB58 is so unbeatable.

When I eventually get a BLRO, that may take the top spot, but who knows.

My favorite would be YG green dial Daytona but Sub (ND) would be the one that I wear the most especially when I travel overseas.

Used to be the 124060, traded up to the LV. I like the LV just a bit more than my BLNR, but the jubilee is a great change up.

Thank you

No. I missed my opportunity when my crypto and NFT holdings went from $23,826,719.98 to $144.50

I started this thread because (1) I was curious to see everyone’s favorite Rolex, of their collection, but (2) also because I wanted to see how many Daytonas pop up.
My Daytona is my 4th or 5th favorite watch.
Now if I owned a PM Daytona, my tune might change.

For aesthetics it would be my 1601. Overall due to sentimental reasons #1 would be my 6263.

It would be my 16710N. I love the versatility of this reference as it's really several watches in one; you can change bezel inserts and bracelets on a whim for very different looks, and the 3185/3186 movement is bulletproof. It's WR to 100 meters, so works as a recreational diver too.

I have 3 number ones. The first is the one I enjoy wearing most right now…36mm platinum day date…the next two are my favorite watches because one was a wedding gift from my wife (lapis 18238) and the other was my surprise 50th bday present from my wife and kids(pepC).
