SS Daytona 116520 white... Amazing how thin and light the case is especially with the chrono and a 3day power reserve. Love the dial and the sound of the push pin for chrono function.

My "dream Rolex" is the DayDate/DayDate II models without a doubt. Too bad I heard they start at $20,000 USD :/

The ever so rare 1958' 6538 4 Line Submariner-untouched and mint:
6538-GB 3.jpg

6538--GB.jpg

6538 GB 5.jpg

Feb 4th 013.jpg

Why?: Impossible to find--as rare as hen teeth--and love having a mint historic icon knowing I will never run into anyone that has one like it!!
It represents everything Rolex was built upon and keeps perfect time like it did the day it left the factory!! The dial is mesmerizing--new watches
just don't do what this watch does for me--words can't even describe it!! All of my vintage brothers out there know exactly what I am talking about!!

Wow...some tough choices. Rolex produces really nice watches and there are Manu I would be proud to own. Unfortunately, I only have two but do feel very fortunate to have them. So, to answer the question.
My favorite owned piece, SS GMTIIC.

Favorite on wish list
GMTIIC 18 kt YG green dial
GMT Pepsi
Sub C LV

for me it has to be this one 1665
very useable tough can go anywhere and its what imho
is what a tool watch is all about

but loving the 6538 above wow peach of a piece enjoy

love the newmans too but too small for me to wear
after trying a few friends ones .
milsubs are wonderful but the value of them to me means
i trully cant be wearing it all the time , so the 1665 gets my vote

GMT IIc in steel for me - sums up everything that's great about a modern Rolex, and is probably the most useful/versatile watch in the entire range. I love its purity of purpose - so many other GMTs from other companies feel clunky by comparison
