excluding the YM II, of course. That's too easy.

Day-Date doesn't do much for me.

Gaijin · 19 January 2008, 11:31 AM

Leopard Daytona. I actually saw it in person along with the Zebra DJ.

Zebra DJ was ugly too, but the Leopard Daytona is on a whole different level of ugly.

In addition to those two - which I agree are the absolute worst - on a par with the YM-II - the TT Blue Sub is right up there for me, followed closely by the Root Beer GMT (sorry Allan).

pilapandet · 19 January 2008, 11:36 AM

Sport model is Milgauss
36mm is anything that does not have luminous on hour and minute hand.

Gaijin · 19 January 2008, 11:39 AM

More mainstream I would say any Rolex on a strap.

frostie · 19 January 2008, 11:41 AM

Leopard daytona and old style air king. I really like the new style air king

funlab · 19 January 2008, 11:52 AM

ice gmt, leopard daytona, milgauss and turn-o-graph.

of course, ym-ii would be high on the list but you've wisely made it a given that it won't get many favorable voes.

sea-dweller · 19 January 2008, 11:57 AM

Any men's Rolex with diamonds on it ! Too much 'bling' !

JJ, As we have said before the Zebra is vile, but take the diamonds out of the rubber and now Rolex have had a try at rubber, I would love a rubber genuine Rolex strap with deployent clasp for my Sub anybody else?

As for Rolex Models I don't like, there are far too many to post, but I really hate any sport watch with precious stone bezels.
It just makes no sense, they are just pretentious.
If you like diamonds etc that is fine, but buy a dress watch.
Divers watches or chronographs with stones and not calibrations are just a waste of time (no pun intended).
Gold sports watches look great and can still be used for there intended purpose and look fantastic as a dress watch when the occasion arises, but once the bezel is iced up it is no longer functional, so then it is time to buy a DD with as many diamonds as you want or it can take

Just my 2 cents/pence.

applebook · 19 January 2008, 11:57 AM

Any model with a garish dial + bezel.

scottschoe · 19 January 2008, 11:57 AM

Anything quartz, anything Cellini, bling / diamond overkill (esp for men). TBH, I would only actually buy a sports model.

frostie · 19 January 2008, 11:58 AM

GMT II C

I just bought one

321harley · 19 January 2008, 12:44 PM

The Milgauss!

Geez....What does everyone see in this watch??

Letsgodiving · 19 January 2008, 12:50 PM

Cellini.

atldavek · 19 January 2008, 01:05 PM

I think the diamond stuff is per the customer, some like, some don't. They don't bother me.
I do not like the Cellini stuff, the straps don't do too much for me either.

clbcpa · 19 January 2008, 01:38 PM

Airking

Letsgodiving · 19 January 2008, 01:39 PM

That's rubber? I didn't realize that. Rubber and diamonds that's not something you see every day. I think I may need to change my vote.

Trurolexer · 19 January 2008, 06:28 PM

Zebra DJ, Daytona Leopard, the new Prince model (I prefer the oldies Prince), and any model have diamonds in their dial or bezel or bracelets!!!

unclesallie · 19 January 2008, 01:44 PM

agree with JJ: that Rubberolex Datejust is disgusting!

best, dan

RolexSoFla · 19 January 2008, 01:52 PM

The Milgauss. It will always be rare because they should only sell about a dozen of them.

jfishe08 · 19 January 2008, 01:54 PM
