Hey, my mom wants to buy my dad a rolex for his 50 birthday and she has some connections meaning she can get any watch from rolex without waiting. If you could get any watch what would you get? I made this list:

1. Rolex gmt master II pepsi ref 16710

2. Rolex gmt master II pepsi ref 126710BLRO

3.Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Reference 116500LN

4. Rolex submariner hulk

5. Rolex gmt master II batman ref 116710BLNR

6. Rolex gmt master II batman ref 126710BLNR

7. Rolex submariner date

8. Rolex sea dweller steel

Any thoughts or changes will be welcomed. Thanks!

Doesn't sound like you need to come on to a forum and ask a random bunch of people then...

brandrea · 1 November 2019, 09:01 PM

If I were your mom I’d ask your dad what he wants since the sky’s the limit.

nighthawk77 · 1 November 2019, 09:02 PM

Your dad is probably the best person to ask. There is quite a variety in the above list, in terms of size, colour, complications etc, and he/you will know what suits his style better than any of us.

That said, you can't go wrong with any of those choices - generally speaking I'd guess that Daytona, Pepsi, Batman, Hulk, Sub, Sea Dweller is probably the order of the watches in terms of how hard they are to come by. I'm not sure if that plays a factor in your decision, and if it were me I'd probably choose the Sub based on my personal tastes.

Good luck with your purchase and HBD in advance to your dad!

I’ll go for the 16710 for sure cos it’s discontinued!

It makes no sense tbh to ask this on a forum with random strangers.

Exactly that.

Andad · 1 November 2019, 09:09 PM

I’m happy to go with you?

THC · 1 November 2019, 09:13 PM

What does Dad want?

abelxo · 1 November 2019, 09:15 PM

I think the Daytona 116500LN or BLRO 126710 are the perfect present.

It's amazing that a 17 yo can get any watch that he wants.

royerlich · 1 November 2019, 09:23 PM

Thanks everyone that answered, we will probably go for the 116500LN

Adam Brian · 1 November 2019, 09:32 PM

Also, I'd get one of the Pepsis if I could choose from that list.

oconnorandrew64 · 1 November 2019, 09:41 PM

That's what followers say. Pave your own way. Do it right, and others will want to connect with you.
