Won't part with any of them but there's nothing quite like this.

Frakis · 20 May 2020, 02:52 PM

The last one to go would be my 16710 - 3186. In my opinion, the versatility of this timepiece is unparalleled.

I also LOVE my 126710BLRO.

timlaw · 20 May 2020, 03:11 PM

looks like the market for the 16710 is going to be difficult for new buyers given how many seem to be keepers

I agree with you all my 16710 is my keeper for sure

Squire711 · 20 May 2020, 03:21 PM

For me the keeper would be the white face daytona ceramic 116500LN

iTreelex · 20 May 2020, 03:28 PM

116600 for now...

214270 for me.

I don't think you can truly say 'never say never' but as my tastes have changed over the last 24 years of Rolex ownership, I firmly believe that you find a place when you truly know that something suits you.

39mm is a sweet-spot for me based on my wrist size and because of this I recently sold my 114060. I felt like I was kidding myself that the maxi-case was right when it wasn't (at least in my eyes). I was always aware of the heft in comparison to the 214270 so the 110460 was moved on. It simply wasn't getting any wrist time.

When I picked up the 114060 I swore I'd never sell it because I made the fatal error of selling my first Rolex (T-serial 14060). The 114060 was supposed to be in some way a form of redemption for that massive regret that I still have to this day.

So as I said initially - never say never - the 114060 was supposed to be a cast-iron keeper but things can sometimes change on a flip of coin, or in this case, a very personal feeling about a watch.......

icnbne · 20 May 2020, 07:25 PM

All my watches, the cheaper ones arent worth selling and the others are sentimental

AirPeasant · 20 May 2020, 09:29 PM

My Turnograph 116264 and my DJ 126200 are my life watches.

I never sell.

They can all go or they can all stay. I am not attached to the watches only the value they represent. No emotions, just fun.

jburson250 · 20 May 2020, 09:54 PM

This one's been with me 54 years:

Mac-427 · 20 May 2020, 10:02 PM

16610LN with my name on the warranty card.

Awesome!

I keep trying to decide what watch to get for my daughter when we adopt. I go back and forth between the Cartier Santos blue and DJ41 fluted with jubilee.

Great looking set

Would never part with my first nice watch, a Longines L4.718.4.21.2, which I bought during law school before starting an internship for a judge. My heart sank when, in the first week of the internship, the judge complimented my fellow intern's Fossil watch

Aberdein · 21 May 2020, 02:04 AM

16750 GMT Master. Purchased in Riyadh in 1982. Been all around the world with me and still wear it more than others as an everyday watch. Been serviced several time by Rolex and still looks in great condition.

Meyrin · 21 May 2020, 02:33 AM

My 1996 10460 Sub, my first and only Rolex...for the moment!

mimo5000 · 21 May 2020, 02:37 AM

I've already sold watches that I thought were forever pieces. So I guess never say never.
That said, my PAM005 I was from my wife for our wedding. So unless I lose the wife, the watch is mine forever!

Hulk will remain until Daytona happens. In Non-Rolex category, Seiko SBGC007 will be the last to go, if it comes to that.

Your insert looks about like mine. What year? Mine: 1995

I love them all and parting would be utterly heartbreaking.
This one would be the last to go: 1665, Rail Dial, purchased by me from the original owner in 1995, serviced by RSC NY in 2003. Safe queen.
