Well guys I sold my Daytona the other day!! I got mixed up with all of the hype and when I got it...... It just wasnt what I expected. Its a beautiful watch but just didnt "smile" back at me.

So anyway I still have my GMT-c (I love it

) and would like to have one more to wear as an everyday watch. I have been wearing my GMT but I would like to have a brushed bracelet for everyday wear.

Anyone care to guess what I might have my eye on??

frostie · 31 January 2008, 08:16 AM

ND sub ? or probably a GMT old style

kcmo · 31 January 2008, 08:17 AM

Karis, I would love it but it just feels too small and flat on the wrist compared to my GMT-c!!!

But just going by looks... The white exp II would be my first choice

Hmmm, you had one didn't you? Getting back to basics...I like it

904L_addict · 31 January 2008, 08:48 AM

I think that's a great idea. Would look very unique with the maxi dial and black bezel. Well, unique to those that know what a normal sub looks like.

SPACE-DWELLER · 31 January 2008, 08:50 AM

Okay, I would never have guessed you were going for an LV.

But nice choice!

EvEr34 · 31 January 2008, 08:56 AM

Guess I missed alot on my little hiatus.!!!!

Get a black sub no date so I can buy it off of you in a couple months!!

Well,

1. I love the way a sub sits on my wrist
2. I like the green bezel
3. I really love the maxi-dial
4. Will get the black insert just incase I want to tone it down a bit
5. Triple-lock crown

Another 16710 was an option but I always miss the Triple-lock crown.

BuffaloRolex · 31 January 2008, 02:06 PM

You can never go wrong with a Sub, and that green in beautiful.

JostheBoss · 31 January 2008, 08:56 AM

What did you do with your SS Daytona? I think the LV is a good option :) The black insert gives u 2 classic watches!

The daytona was sold few days ago.

Robb i think that the LV is a great choice especially if you get a black bezel insert

viper · 31 January 2008, 10:09 AM

LV is my favorite. No extra bezel, just rock the green

If you wanna go black just put on the GMT IIC

True!!!

The green is really something you must see in person to appreciate!

cmr · 31 January 2008, 10:14 AM

i love the maxi dial on my gmt2c. i wish the black sub had it. hopefully, if and when the redesign the sub all the versions will have it. we will see what the future holds for us.

blueface · 31 January 2008, 10:14 AM

I just got a new watch for the same purpose. A black SS sub date.

i understand they warranty the watch themselves like allan furman, but later in the watches life are you able to send them to the rsc and have them serviced? is that a problem with watches from these places?

Im not sure Marcus. I sold a watch to them. I have never purchased.

cmr · 31 January 2008, 10:31 AM

that is something that makes me nervous. i don't care to sell any of my watches so it would be mandatory for these places to prove to me that rolex won't disown a watch i bought from them. i guess if the serial numbers are correct and you send it for service when it is needed they wouldn't care. the warranty part doesn't concern me near as much. the probability of needing warranty work done within the two year time frame is slim but the service will need to be done during the life of ownership. we know it will have to be done and i want them to do it.

Robb · 31 January 2008, 10:33 AM

I misunderstood your question.... Rolex will service the watch, no problems!!!! Your a paying customer.

As for the warranty work.. Not sure!
