If you could own just one vintage, which would it be?
Your favourite one that you can afford to buy.

Though I do love a Paul Newman, I just could not afford one.
For me it would have to be an good condition GMT 1675.
Checks all boxes for me.

What about you?

subtona · 15 November 2015, 04:31 AM

5513 matte dial tritium plots no surrounds.

fitzs · 15 November 2015, 05:00 AM

Probably a Triple 6.

TheRolexKingofLV · 15 November 2015, 05:04 AM

Vintage Daytona

Paul Newman or Albino GMT or 1675

fmc000 · 15 November 2015, 05:31 AM

My current 16523 is my choice if I have to respect my budget.

Daytona. Had one for 17 years before I flipped it. Big mistake.
This time I would target YG.

jfmiii · 15 November 2015, 06:09 AM

in terms of affordable, my 16750 is the answer. i were to sell my entire collection and have just one watch, a silver sigma 6265 would be my answer. a silver 6239 would be a more affordable option as well. but outside a PN 6263, which i will never ever be able to afford, a silver sigma 6265 is my grail watch.

Daytonaman799 · 15 November 2015, 06:14 AM

PN 6262 or 6239...if price was no object then I up the ante to a Panda 6263...

agsstructures · 15 November 2015, 06:26 AM

My 1680 red which is within budget. Out of budget would be vintage Daytona. Not even any crazy rare dial just something in good shape I could wear daily.

Point2Point · 15 November 2015, 06:48 AM

Great White Sea-Dweller. Would love a DRSD, but out of my budget for now.

A nicer example of my Red 1680. I should have jumped on a Double Red 10 years ago, they are insane now.

thejerseyrock · 15 November 2015, 08:26 AM

1680 red

theflywrist · 15 November 2015, 08:46 AM

A good 1680 white.
I love the simplicity, and I could not afford a Paul Newman, so..

asleep · 15 November 2015, 09:19 AM

Red Submariner, I think.

ADINVA · 15 November 2015, 03:07 PM

Would love a birth year Red Sub 1680. If it is to be within my budget, I would not mind settling one that is less pristine.

zapokee · 15 November 2015, 03:43 PM

WG 1803 for me.

sea-dweller · 15 November 2015, 04:00 PM

1675...

scooba · 15 November 2015, 04:21 PM

I can't decide but a Single Red Sub MK1 ,or if it was money no object a PPDRSD

coffeebreak · 15 November 2015, 05:20 PM

1675 for me also

strafer_kid · 15 November 2015, 06:58 PM

Probably 1665SD?

A red Sub will do. :)

irate03 · 15 November 2015, 08:59 PM

one day maybe a nicely aged 1675 but for my current and probably long term situation the fact I was able to buy a nice condition 1971, 1603 DJ a couple of months ago makes me very happy.

mailman · 15 November 2015, 11:47 PM

1665 DRSD MKII tropical thin case.

brandrea · 15 November 2015, 11:54 PM

This thread needs pictures

It was an easy choice for me .... Enter this 5513, 15xxxxx original owner

If I could afford one, it'd be a drsd.
