Rolex

You guys think is best out there...

Rasta Milgauss or Explorer 1. The Rasta because it is so quirky and fun, the Explorer 1 because it is just bullet-proof cool. If i could borrow a black-out Explorer 1, that would be my choice!

May I know more about the blackout Explorer 1?

But I'm sure not easy to find?

Sam

I have to say the new Submariner..!!
You might find one or two pics in my gallery....I love the new case, bezel, and the bracelet with new glide lock clasp which is a thing of beauty in itself
Obviously it's down to what you want it for and I also have a GMT and Datejust, but this new one is a perfect evolution of the Sub.

Yours,

Andy.

Ive been asking around for the no date version here

...I liked it so much that I bought it, after years of reluctance to get a Sub (primarily due to the clasp design used on its predecessors) and prior ownership of, among others, 2 Omega Seamasters, 2 Omega Planet Oceans, 1 G.O. Sport Evolution Chronograph, 1 UTS 1000m v2 GMT an Ebel and a Ball Hydrocarbon. This message has been edited by db darien on 2012-08-05 06:41:17

I think a must have watch for everyone

The Yachtmaster.

I think the best choice is a different choice.

Too many Subs or Dayto ( whch is also true for the Vintage, though! ).

Yes, try to be different, try the Rasta Milgauss, or the Yachtmaster! You can't go wrong with any of these two.

Best,

Nicolas.

That black dial new Explorer II.
and amongst your whys... it is simply a top everyday wear specially when life starts meeting with age... ;-)

Nice choice for you as they're more like an evolution to their predecessor...

So the Yachtmaster comes with a platinum / ss bracelet?


Sam

If you are looking to get one, Sam. I just like the overall look of it and it's ease of function and practical side of it. It looks solid and nice rendition of the GMT, totally with modern approach and new materials. And the little green GMT hand over the black dial looks cool. A good friend of mine just got one and he is happy as a child. the only thing i will complain is the polished centre of oyster bracelets. Brushed may look better. But I can live with that.

Certainly fits the criteria for an everyday wear...

It got the look of the classic submariner, yet it has a useful GMT function on it...

I really like the color... And yes I have the same complain as you...

I don't like the polished bracelet on the modern rolexes, that's the reason why I couldn't pull the trigger on this and the daytona

Thanks for sharing your thought KCKL

Hope to see one soon .. on my wrist.. )


Sam

Green crystal Milgauss. Tried one on recently at a Rolex boutique and its been hard to get out of my head. After that, the new Explorer. Even with the short minute hand, a great watch and a perfect case size.

Thank you


Sam

I concur with the choice of Milgauss. GV or white dial would be a good choice regardless. Another favorite of mine is those racing dial from the WG Daytona. It would be perfect if we can get the SS model and purchase these dial separately and swap them

)

It is gonna be towards that direction only I still don't know if I want to dive in to the world of vintage Rolexes..

The modern doesn't have such charm BUT they're a perfect tool watch... Very solid

I've always been a fan of the racing dial WG Daytona.. As I'm a sucker for the color combination... Your suggestion might be an expensive one... so I don't know... But definitely something to look forward to.. I hope Rolex will come up with such combination one day

Sam

I thought you have your mind set for the vintage rolex, I might be wrong.

As for the swapping the dial on the WG Daytona. I believe we can buy the dial are separately directly from rolex. I'm just not sure will Rolex sell them to a non WG Daytona owner. If yes then voila! Racing Dial without paying for a WG case.

I believe I have seen a combination like that somewhere. Try doing a search.

Wish you good luck on your horological adventure.

it's this one by far
ooopssss sorrry

and who is the man to oppose his wife?

It seems like a favorite amongst the purist here...

Thanks Ares

The white gold bleu dial sub, I could not go passed that bleu dial sub, since I own it its colour continues to amaze me.

The new Explorer II, a so easy everyday watch for me, a wink to the past, another wink to the future a great time teller and finally I big crown on Explorer II

Otherwise not as recent, the Yachtmaster of course, whys... I always liked it!

I kinda like the idea of using precious metal and different color scheme .. Just that I'm not sure if I can live with such color...

The new explorer2 seems to be a nice choice POY.. I'm highly considering it... Which dial did you go for?


Sam

That's a lovely blue color...
