What are the Two Most Similar Watches You Have?

Given we are a crew of watch and Rolex enthusiasts many of us have several watches that are very similar - such as a date and no-date Submariner. Curious what two watches you have that are most similar to each other.

I'll start - I have two Master GMT II's; one the CHNR Rootbeer and the other a BLNR Batman with the jubilee bracelet. Not all that similar oustide of sharing the same name and dial, but different enough.

I’d say my Submariner and Seamaster because they’re both divers, but they’re quite different aesthetically. So that’s sort of a stretch. My collection is pretty diverse.

My 124040 (submariner) and 16760 (GMT II). Really not all that similar, but the most of my collection. I would like a BLRO, which would be similar to both, I suppose.

Ok.

Did you read OP’s question? These are the two most similar watches I have.

Actually, the OP asked what are the most similar watches you have, and that’s a correct answer. Those are probably the most similar watches he has.

16660
16600
116600
126600



Probably the first two are most similar to each other, but all four are similar at the end of the day.

I currently have a PAM 111, 510 and 564, all Luminor Marinas. And when I can find a PAM 061 Luminor Marina I’m gonna buy that too.

I also have a polar EXP II. Lately I’ve been considering a black dial EXP II to go with it.

What’s life without dreams?
