I have a hulk that I love, but if I was to buy another new watch it would be the new Blue Black GMT.

Looks like the Black/Blue GMT is a hit. Its next on my list. Will have to part with the 16610 though to help afford it and having both are a bit redundant for my taste.

I'd say the new, blue-dialed YachtMaster but the price is getting too steep for most of us.

I could not have said the above any better! Some of the more popular models scream:
'I have a Rolex' and in the UK, worn unfortunately by a certain type of person, usually with 'new' money, blonded girls, loud mouthed and black Mercs!
A relative of mine has an Explorer 11, although not normally worn by the above types, still means it is rarely worn by him in public, only on family occasions. He feels he does not want to be 'typed' in public.
It would seem to be a fact that people with 'real' money and class in the UK do not buy Rolex!
At all times and places, I feel very much at ease with my Explorer 39mm, which I wear 24/7!

I must respectfully disagree with your post which to me, is insulting to all our Rolex-wearing friends/members from the UK.

So you're saying because you wear a more classic Explorer, you have class and "real" money while others who wear more modern Rolex, do not?

From the list the 114060 is the one I like the best, although I'm plenty happy with my 14060M.

Silly statement and lacks class and anything but a fact as you claim.
