Would think hard about swapping the DeepSea for a YG YMII... Don't necessarily want all gold though....

[A.J.R.]

RG Daytona
WG Submariner
YG DDII or YG GMTII

[A.Sharp]

This ones easy as I dream about it almost every day:

1. GMTIIC -SS
2. YG Daytona- white face
3. YG DDII with Black wave face - interchangable w/ plat blue face, or rose gold and romans.

If it wasnt just rolex,

My 3. would prob be an AP os royal oak.

Very humorous reading this a year later. Went to test drive the Explorer 1 (36m) before there're gone, came home with a Daytona SS black.

Could'nt return to my old Sub and Speedy after wearing the Daytona 24/7 for months. (was supposed to be sundays only)

Picked up another favourite, a LNIB 2254.50 to challenge the Daytona for wrist time. Fell into a routine of Omega monday to friday, Daytona weekends. Life is good.

My spring bar tool was a hair too thick to adjust the bracelet size on the Daytona bracelet clasp. Went back to the AD to have it taken care of last week. Ended up talking watches, mentioned I how regret missing the 16610LV boat. It's my lucky day, they had one NOS in the back of the safe.

Time seemed to slow down as I put it on my wrist and pulled out the plastic. Life is very good.

I now have my trifecta, 14060, 16610LV, and 116520.

From the late 1970's to 2009 I was quite content with my Speedy and a succession of Subs. Then I discovered TRF.

Edit; Why do I still want a 16600 ?

[Wacker23]

White gold meteor daytona silver face
Platinum day date Glacier blue face or blue face with diamond markers
The new blue face Yatchmaster.

All 3 would be great to have, but I think that I could survive w/any 1 of them

Hard to argue with that.

My three:



L to R:

Omega Planet Ocean Liquidmetal LE
Rolex 216570
Vintage Omega 105.012 Speedmaster Professional (same model worn by Neil Armstrong and other Apollo moon walkers)

I've always liked to have 2 watches in my collection. Whenever I've ended up with 3, 1 never gets worn. I'm happy with these 2 (a SS daily beater and a WG for less wear).

[nauticajoe]

Mine would be - land, sea, & air
