If you could buy only one Rolex, which one would it be?

Hi and welcome to TRF.

If you insist on ONLY ONE....then it would have to be this one!!

RogerF · 4 October 2006, 04:20 PM

This one.

Personally tested to the depth of 40mm

mike · 4 October 2006, 06:23 PM

The model I started with.

padi56 · 4 October 2006, 06:32 PM

Well have all I want except my dream watch 30s-40s SS Rolex Prince.

MadMac · 4 October 2006, 07:03 PM

For me, it would have to be this:

mailman · 4 October 2006, 07:05 PM

The one I have

miner · 4 October 2006, 07:38 PM

This in SS

amanda · 4 October 2006, 08:21 PM

I think I'd want a SS white faced Daytona..... and if that didnt look any good on me, I'll stick to the GMT thanks....

And that Amanda is the most important thing what you like personally,and not the current fashion,or what the market media tell you to wear.

I would say a SS White Face Daytona. Maybe the good lord will bless me one day. I pray everyday for one.

Hopefully it will come true,

The question can be answered in two ways.

1. If I could own only one, clearly it's this one:

2. If I could buy only one more, it would have to be this one:

RogerF · 4 October 2006, 11:11 PM

Everybody forgot this one

C.J. · 4 October 2006, 11:13 PM

Luckily, I already have it

No, Roger. No one forgot about it. We were all trying to ignore it.

Mr. K · 4 October 2006, 11:46 PM

I like them all, but if had to be only one, probably the SS sub date.

At least that is my answer for today.

JJ - what happened to your TT Blue Dial Yachtmaster?

Rodentman · 5 October 2006, 02:11 AM

Rockrolex-Does the gold bracelet or the SS watch get scratched worse from wearing the 2 together??

I have a gold bracelet and thought of wearing it with my watch....but I always was afraid of rubbing.

To answer the query raised on the thread:

If it were my $$ I'd have a SD, which I do, luckily.

Someone else's $$ I'd like a TT Daytona with black MOP dial, or any Rolex with that dial. I really want a black MOP. I almost bought a blacl MOP Cellini, but the lack of a second hand killed it for me.

Hey, Bob. No scratching that I've ever noticed. I just checked the back of the watch and the bracelet, and not a scratch on on either (at least none that can be seen with the naked eye). Go ahead, you won't hurt the watch or the bracelet by wearing them together.

You had to ask

Prince · 5 October 2006, 09:28 AM

Yeah, telling me to isolate my thinking to ONE Rolex is like asking me to decide which arm I would decide to keep if I could have only one.

So anyway, I would have to vote for this one (which I already have):

But I sure do have a hankerin' for this baby:

Oops! That's already two. Sorry!
