I'm also trying to figure out why the day-date isn't doing better. This, tho, is coming from a guy who voted for the Sub because I want a Sub ND like crazy and didn't even bother to see that there was a DD on the poll.....

Apparently, this board is home to very many misguided folks.

Clearly, the best, most elegant, and most universally appropriate Rolex ever designed is the Explorer.

Personally I'd choose one of the MilSubs but as that's not an option I went for the Sea-Dweller

I would vote for the GMT II but as its not an option I won't vote.

I don't care for the IIC I am sure it will grow on me but it just doesn't do it for me as of yet.

I love my SD and DSSD BUT if it can only be one I want the ability to track another time zone (and like the GMT more than the Exp II)

If I were basing my answer on which watch I would buy, well, it would be the Submariner. But if I were to be able to afford any of them, I would likely pick the Day-Date model.

For iconic design it must be the Sub.

All are great watches but it has to be the Sub since it's probably the most copied design in the world.
