Couldn't agree more with your criteria and funnily enough I often come back from a two week vacation thinking ... the same

A kindred brother would be my choice

Can't pick one, but probably one of my Sea-Dwellers

Love these two, but I’d go Explorer II all day long. I love the Explorer II like no other. I swapped it for my twin brother’s Milgauss one time and it drove me crazy. I love the Milgauss, but I very clearly don’t do well without my Explorer II.

Tough choice, have four ”nicer” watches, 126600, 116503 black, 326934 white and 116618LB. It would be between the SkyD and Sub, probably I would end up with the SkyD.

Would probably just keep the sub. The others are worth more anyway if I needed money.

That's my selection as well.

Out of my current collection, it would have to be the kermit

But my grail one-watch atm is the WG BLRO blue (or meteorite dial)...

Probably my SD43. Its a watch that can check all the boxes. Looks great with a suit and just as good with swim shorts and flip flops. Best vacation watch ever.

I’ve had it about 3 weeks. I love the jubilee bracelet and the colors on the bezel. The historical link of the colors on the BLRO make it a special piece. I doubt you will be disappointed if you are able to acquire the BLRO.

In this post, I chose this one to keep as my one and only over my TT GMTc, LVc, SD43, Daytona C, 16610 and BLNR. I really like my BLRO
