Lets leave sentimental value out of it. Pick just one Rolex and why?

SkyKing31 · 29 December 2011, 07:50 AM

TT DJ .. Simple and Classy

Darlinboy · 29 December 2011, 07:50 AM

For me. It's the SubC. Perfect all-around watch for me. Your preference may vary.

Happy New Year!

esm · 29 December 2011, 07:52 AM

16610LV

because green is my fave colour.

OrangeSport · 29 December 2011, 07:54 AM

I already have:

Sub 14060M

Classic, simple, stylish, understated, tough & versatile. The watch I always wanted, and it has lived up to my expectations....

Runnin' Rebel · 29 December 2011, 08:04 AM

I like this, although if it's your first maybe the SS GMT IIc

matt4hand · 29 December 2011, 08:37 AM

My personal choice

My choice if you want something modern

DDII - 'The Leader's Watch' (so says Rolex)

snaggle · 29 December 2011, 08:45 AM

18K/ SS 2 tone Sub Date C

tanndonn · 29 December 2011, 08:51 AM

16610LV, classic case dimension and maxi dial, flexiblity with bezel, has to be the 1.

C.J. · 29 December 2011, 08:55 AM

14060M. It's a classic, iconic model that fits in any situation, from the range to the beach to a black tie dinner party.
Now, I just need to get another one.

NAVY · 29 December 2011, 08:57 AM

Simple and classic.

warren G. · 29 December 2011, 08:58 AM

116610

WyoWatch · 29 December 2011, 09:14 AM

116610LN - because I could wear it everyday for the rest of my life and never desire another watch.

dddrees · 29 December 2011, 09:23 AM

The GMTIIC as it has probably greatest wrist presence of any watch I have owned so far.

It just looks and feels so much better than anything else out there.

peticks · 29 December 2011, 09:26 AM

dj...it's the classic rolex in my opinion...

breanach78 · 29 December 2011, 09:28 AM

Well I have owned two of the few posted so far! Sub C. and 16610LV!

subtona · 29 December 2011, 09:29 AM

Definitely has to be a

Sub (with or with out Date)
or
Sea Dweller
or
Sub
or
Sea Dweller

with Lugholes, 16610LV would probably be #1, if it had them... but it doesn't, but its cool...

really, i just cant do it!

but im trying real hard!

bigrustypig · 29 December 2011, 09:30 AM

No brainer. DSSD.

breanach78 · 29 December 2011, 09:34 AM

Do not own the my Sub C. LN long enough to say otherwise but so far.....

Art 1 · 29 December 2011, 09:39 AM

LV. Love that watch.

dalip · 29 December 2011, 09:46 AM

Imagining the scenario, I could lose all my Rolex if I really had to....apart from the 116509. So not based on any level of practicality but simply emotional connection....that'd be my only one.

And it's taken quite a beating with major trips this year and plenty of beach time at home.... Contrary to much opinion the white gold does not mark that easily and is pretty robust in comparison to my SS models.

The watch will grow old gracefully and I know with all going well in my life I expect to look down at my 80 year old wrist and see it sitting there.

A timeless design. Beautifully crafted dial (especially on this reference) and inside beats an awesome movement.

petesjag · 29 December 2011, 09:51 AM

Hi thomas,
Seeing that we have the same taste in timepieces, I would say you would like my choice, the larger then life ss 116520!
Regards,
Pete

Singslinger · 29 December 2011, 09:52 AM

Sea-Dweller Deep Sea. It's my most frequent "go-to'' watch and I've found that I can it wear it for any occasion.

MortgageGuy · 29 December 2011, 09:54 AM

GMT C for me, have owned too many to remember as I kept flipping them for awhile there

NEVER AGAIN

Fiery · 29 December 2011, 09:55 AM

Easy: SS Sub-C LN. Classic, iconic, versatile. Dependable movement, modern construction. Constantly refined since 1953. For many -- including me -- the best sports watch ever made.
