Well, imho I would say the Sub... It is by far the most comfortable to wear I believe. However the GMT IIc is a tight second. Looks, the GMT wins top down. For me the GMT is just not as comfortable if you are wearing all day.

Best Value???? I dont thik that exists in Gold... Value will drop quite dramatically after purchase as resale is not good.

Most popular in Gold I would also say the Sub and GMT, not sure which one wins, we will have to wait and see the poll results, my guess is GMT will win in this forum.

Thank's for your reply my friend.
The best value that I mean is among the Sport YG Rolex only
Anyway, thanks for your opinion again

If I were to have to have an all gold model..it would be the GMT2C with a Green dial.

Technically, the GMT and Daytona are not sports watches, unlike the Submariner (scuba diving), Explorer II (cave exploring) and Yachtmaster (sailing).

My vote for best YG sports model goes to the blue Sub.

most popular: Not easy to pick one, but maybe the Daytona. Or maybe it's the most sought after, but not the most owned?

superb: To me it has to be the GMT IIC. IMHO it looks absolutely stunning in YG

legend: Sub or Daytona, equally legendary IMHO

best value: All gold watches are terrible value

I agree with the YG Blue Sub, but to say the GMT and Daytona are not sport watches, well GMT flying, you can pull more g's in a sport plane than any sports car, and a Daytona can be used to time sporting events.

Of course the real story here is very few sport model Roxles are used as they are intended.

Have to agree especially when you come to high end precious metal brands and to proportion to price paid quite a low resale value..

How about if I buy this YG Rolex from reputable second hand Rolex shop?
Will I get a lot price differentiation compare with brand new one?

PS: If I have to buy, I will buy it at Singapore

I would have to go with the GMT-IIc with the green dial or one of the Daytonas. There are so many different dial options on the gold daytonas.
