all iterations of the vintage and modern sub, I'd love to have a PN Daytona but I'd be to terrified to wear it so what would be the point... Ok if you want to give me one I'll wear it

SS Sub Date (16610).

Funny thing is, that was my second Rolex. I passed on it and got my 116000 instead and then couldn't stop thinking about the 16610 so I went back and bought it too. It is by far my favorite and gets about 90% of the wrist time.

I would say I have two favorites; The sea-dweller and yachtmaster platinum..
Yachtmaster looks elegant yet sporty.. Seadweller - a sport watch first
and can be worn during business meetings or special occasions..

I like my Rolexes like I like most things in life. In all shapes, colors... but not necessarily sizes because I'm shallow.

I think anything but the DSSD, DDII, etc. all look pretty good.

Sorry not me. An AD was proud of this one and showed it to me. I love the rose gold but not the daytona so it stayed in the case.
