I understand
I had the same thought about the 1016 for a long time, but then found myself pivoting to the much odder 1655. I've still never owned a 1016 either but exactly: simple, beautiful, well-balanced.
Your one Rolex to Rule Them All...
What is it for you? Assume you could only have one. For me, batgirl. ...
If money do not matter
🔵Smurf. If money counts, an oyster perpetual 114300 blue dial. So blue is blue 🟦
This mass produced beauty;)
It actually borne with an Oyster but I switched it with the Pepsi and I like it much better this way… Years of memories and travels, I could never part with it! ...
None!
I just sold my Sub 114060 because it wore to bulky and blocky on my 7 inch wrist!
Ended love for the crown?
Holy moly aqua. But very honest you told it now to the community. Personally i am very straight to watch brands like brand A is bad and brand B is the best. I kept always a carte blanche for the crown, while i cannot decide if i want to pay for the watch ...
For now , it is over
I liked the idea of the Sub a lot more than the actual watch itself in every day practice. If I ever come back , perhaps I’ll try the 14060
No regrets
Never looked back. It no longer brought me joy, so it wasn’t being worn. Off it went . Keep us posted
Because I see Rolex, primarily, as a…
…tool-watch company, I submit to you reference number 1655.
Day Date is the KING
And so if there was one choice it would be this one (choosing from what I currently own), but if it was a wider choice I think also a DD 36 in WG but with a special dial. ...
The most delicious two tone..

1655
If I could only have one Rolex, it would be this one. And I only do have one Rolex, and it's this one! ...
It would've been my 118238 if I hadn't gotten rid of it...
I kick myself for it nearly every day. What's done is done, but regret remains... ...
I hope I will never be pressed to own just one Crown…
But just to answer your question… it would be this one: With me since 1977: ref 1680 bought brand new that year. Best cordial regards Abel ...
Arrgh, this is an evil question!
I can narrow it down as follows: Vintage=1665 Double Red Sea-Dweller (or maybe a 6542 GMT, or maybe a 1675 GMT). But okay, I'll settle on a 1665. Modern=Rainbow Daytona (specifically rose gold with black dial and gold flake subdials, either 116595RBOW or ...
My wish are watches that don't exist (yet) :
Oyster perpetual 36mm with silver dial and single battons, gold hands. (The watch almost exist now, but with double batton on 3-6-9). Land dweller with smooth bezel, no numerals, blue dial, no date, and two tone yellow gold and steel. White dial (polar) e...
you should work for Rolex design
I would be tempted... that Land Dweller deserves better versions!
LoL...I think I am too conservative for their new design language :)
I will be strongly tempted on Land Dweller if they make the right dial for me. Luckily I am not in hurry and could wait as long as possible because I don't want to play with ADs.
To spice things up
I would go with a vintage Commando, I have simple tastes. with my modern interpretation : ...
For me it would be a vintage Explorer 1016.
I don't have one yet but I am saving for one at the moment, hopefully next year I have the funds to buy one. They are probably the most "un-Rolex" Rolex model and that is what I like so much about them. Simple and IMHO the most beautiful and well-balanced...
