Which Rolex model is the best looking? I think it is the 18K Daytona with dark mother of pearl dial and diamond markers.

Ivy League · 23 October 2008, 02:17 AM

116710LN GMT Master IIc
End of thread...........

bodybump · 23 October 2008, 02:18 AM

i love the meteorite dial or the Paul Newman Dial!!!

marshallr47 · 23 October 2008, 02:22 AM

IMO the TT Blue dial Sub and the WG Meteorite Dialed Daytona.

gone-rolex-mad · 23 October 2008, 02:24 AM

I'm kind of liking the look of the old SD 4000, an absolute classic love wearing it!

Quicksilver · 23 October 2008, 02:27 AM

Forgert all the fancy variations and dials.

There are two classic models whose beauty, stylistic purity and simplicity are outstanding -

SS Sub Date with black bezel.
SS DJ with fluted bezel and silver stick dial.

Everything else is a variation on these two icons.

On balance, I would probably say the Sub - but it's close.

sea-dweller · 23 October 2008, 02:34 AM

SS Sub Date 16610, TT Blue Sub, 1675 GMT and Paul Newman Daytona, IMHO

JJ Irani · 23 October 2008, 02:46 AM

I would say this one!!

Time Traveller · 23 October 2008, 02:49 AM

For me, the best lookingl is the 116718...

(not my pic, maybe JJ's?)

I am not into gold but the gold with the greed dial is the perfect marriage!

rolexgiants · 23 October 2008, 03:01 AM

18k gold day date..... white face with roman numerals....

1MAC · 23 October 2008, 03:09 AM

18k Yellow Gold GMT IIc with black dial. I tried one on last week and almost couldn't take it off. This despite the fact I'm not a big fan of yellow gold.

Spark · 23 October 2008, 03:12 AM

I've said it before and I'll say it again.
This one, but I am bias

JJ Irani · 23 October 2008, 03:13 AM

That is indeed a classic beauty, Spark. Can never get tired of looking at it!!

juleso · 23 October 2008, 03:23 AM

S/S Sub 16610. The most copied watch in history.The S/S Daytona is beautiful but i need to know the date!

Chris B · 23 October 2008, 03:27 AM

The TT Blue Sub closely followed by the SS PL YM ( IMO the YM is the most photogenic Rolex )

Quicksilver · 23 October 2008, 05:47 AM

If there is one thing this thread shows it is that all Rolex watches are equally beautiful

Not a lemon amongst them.
