What would you choose if this was your only watch for wear and why?

salem65 · 25 February 2013, 02:18 PM

I chose 5167, but the 5711 would fit too. They are my grail watches and are perfect for any occasion. Waterproof, slim and refined.

Ravager135 · 25 February 2013, 02:19 PM

Two classics. If you go DJ II get the silver dial with Arabic numerals. You will have great contrast with the blacked out Sub.

wokafu · 25 February 2013, 02:22 PM

not a big fan of patek nor the GMT ...

thomaspp · 25 February 2013, 02:29 PM

5711 (and I own a YGGMT and an aqua)!

kilyung · 25 February 2013, 02:29 PM

Argh. Tough choice... I love them all but went with 5711.

Htab · 25 February 2013, 02:29 PM

Gmt for me

Rogdogg · 25 February 2013, 02:30 PM

I went with the 5711

dddrees · 25 February 2013, 02:34 PM

5711

Patek, iconic, elegant, slim and light weight, and it's all stainless steel.

Chewbacca · 25 February 2013, 03:29 PM

5711 because its a beautiful Genta design along with being a Patek.

Rolexman28 · 25 February 2013, 03:47 PM

got to go with GOLD

Gaijin · 25 February 2013, 03:49 PM

I went with the first choice because then I could have two watches.

benlee · 25 February 2013, 03:55 PM

Obviously the Patek 5711 provided you are careful with your watch. But for a semi-clumsy person like me, I prefer a much tougher watch and will choose the Sub from these choice. I am actually wearing an Explorer II for my daily wearer nowadays. Deep scratches and Dings on watches pains me.

Alex Ks · 25 February 2013, 05:25 PM

Love the YG GMTII

Psmith · 25 February 2013, 06:53 PM

As daily wearers, hard to beat the DJII + Sub C combo

jackruff · 25 February 2013, 08:25 PM

The choice was obvious for me......

HL65 · 25 February 2013, 09:14 PM

5711

gmt ii c gold..

SearChart · 26 February 2013, 02:08 AM

The Patek Philippe 5167, because it's a Patek and I prefer the Aquanaut over a Nautilus.

slcbbrown · 26 February 2013, 02:25 AM

If you're going to have one or two daily-wearers, IMO, the only choice is Rolex. For all the folks who pick PP, my guess is none of them would actually wear one as a sport watch.

T.S.Eliot · 26 February 2013, 02:35 AM

I chose PP 5711 among the options, otherwise would prefer WG/PL DDII, WG Daytona or AP RO/ROO

nauticajoe · 26 February 2013, 02:44 AM

Tough choice! I went with the DJII & SubC. It's nice to rotate.
