Didn't you sell your Hulk so that you could save up for gold?

I'm a bit confused as to why you are so impatient for a Rolex.

I agree with Charles about the LV-c, but the white 216570 also seems like it would fit you well.

Be patient, aren't you still able to borrow any one of those gold models you always show us?
I never sold the HULK because I wanted too and was bored of it.. NEVER!!

She just had to go too fund a few things I had to pay for.. Now I'm back in the position to buy a nice SS model, but I don't know which..

Gold isn't really a choice at the moment, maybe towards the end of summer but at the moment I have things that over prioritize the purchase. However, I do NEED a Rolex and fast..

Well D, you had a black Sub so a white one is now the way.

The 42mm explorer is a beaut.

I can't figure our why you're considering re-visiting the GMTIIc and not the Hulk?

Anyway, among those three, since you had the Hulk and what you really want is full YG, I'd day, get the diamond DJ II, as I'm not really feeling the GMTIIc or 216570 for you.....

Good luck with the choice!

Or, more precisely, looking forward to your next "which Rolex should I get I need a Rolex" threads.

I tried that one Eric, my suggestion for a rg dj money was a Hulk and a used 116519. I think that could be done for around 15k.

I gotta say that GMT looks really good on you.

The PCLs add just enough bling - which I know you like.
The polar ExpII is right up there though. I don't think I'm much help on this one. Both are stunners. Good luck.
I'm sure you feel like you're going crazy.

Don't buy one just yet, wait a few months if you say you can afford a gold by the end of summer. Stop being so impulsive.

Dino, polar 116570. Think you'll enjoy this watch until something else comes along.
