Choosing the next daily Rolex...Need help...

[VOT]

Dear friends!
Still, I decided to sell my Rolex OP39 Black, was wearing them as daily driver for about 3 years (my previous model was DJ36 SS White). Want to change my watch (I am not a watch collector) on something new for the next 3-5 years (maybe more😂).
I am wearing suits 90% of time. Thinking about one of these models:
1) Sub41 Black or Starbucks (very classical, very hype, but my AD suggests it much higher than MSRP - 12 tEuro)
2) Sub41 TT Bluesy or Black (too shiny, and gold is very soft for everyday use?, but price more or less MSRP - 14,5 tEuro)
3) OP41 with yellow gold dial (ideal watch, but I miss the date on watch)
4) DJ41 smooth on oyster with green roman or blue sticks (less ideal for me, because I like the shape and matte bracelet on OP41 more)

Help, please, with arguments in favor of one or the other option. Or maybe I should pay attention to some other Rolex model. Many thanks!

Sounds like you prefer a brushed bracelet and a date. In that case you should probably go for the 1st option in your list.

Yes, but I still think, maybe OP41, as more versatile and less sporty?

Maybe you could consider a DJ and have a professional brush the bracelet.

I always get them brushed out. It's not difficult to do and it's easy to switch back if you need to.

OP, get the DJ and brush out the PCLs.

If you like the brushed bracelet and the date, get the Sub41.
I’d suggest black, less of a grey market premium and more suited to everyday use.
12.5k€ is not too bad of a grey price, and you most likely won’t loose money when you decide to sell it down the road

Where is the best convenient Oyster? On Sub or OP41? Is it much wider on the Sub?

The sub has a glidelock, most convenient bracelet in my opinion.

I’d go from anything from 1 or 2.

For me, I’d say the black Sub date as a 1 watch pick.

I picked up a Black TT Sub Date from my AD at the weekend. It's a beautiful watch!

Why not Bluesy? What are Cons?

It’s quite hard to dress with - if you like to co-ordinate. Given you wear a suit every day As do I, I would choose black also. I wore a black tt for a good two years solid.

What are Pros to the original steel Sub?

I would get tired of the Bluesy. The black is more understated and traditional, which I prefer.

OP41 black - brush bracelet, legible dial with stick hour index - classy look for the suit!

OP with black or silver dial

[brandrea]

They’re all great candidates. Go with the one that suits your personal preference and sense of style

[Parapraxis]

Sub41

[mattidk]

i would take Starbuck or TT Bluesy from your list if you able to get from AD.

[Benzsiam]

Sub 41 TT Black.

[watchwatcher]

For what you're looking for, it would be hard to beat a sub.

[Moony17]

Another vote for the Sub. Personally, I’d pick the Starbucks over the black.

[karleone]

For a daily definitely not a yellow dial! A steel sub or steel Datejust are both nice choices for a daily.

[DESH]

sub- LV

[Solo118]

Everybody needs to at least try a sub once in their life! Go for it!

[Michael T]

If you were suits that much, DJ41 Blue dial.
