If you could pick "ANY" rolex model and have it free of charge - which one would it be ?

Spark · 10 June 2007, 07:43 AM

White Gold Daydate with president bracelet and white MOP roman dial.
Just because I could.

Welshwatchman · 10 June 2007, 07:50 AM

Thanks, Santa. When will it arrive?

mike · 10 June 2007, 07:57 AM

I promise..if you get me this one I won't worry about the other 149!

I'm really new to the whole Rolex thing, in fact, I don't even own one yet! But, I have to ask what is so special about this rolex you have chosen. I like the looks of it!

It's an original GMT built especially for Pan Am execs. The white dial makes it as rare as hen's teeth. The going price on one of those would probably run more than my wife's Lexus LS460.

Woody,

There's several great write ups on the history of the GMT, here's a pretty good one noting the rarity of the white 6542.

http://www.ukwatches.com/Notes/rfgmt.htm

These watches rarely turn up for sale, rather they are traded privately. At somewhere around 150 known examples it's one of the rarest of references.
If and when one exchanges hands with no issues, it's said to be in six figures.

Yes, The Daytona is nice but I tried on a GMT 11 gold ingot last week at my AD and I would pick that as number one.

Trini · 10 June 2007, 07:46 AM

exactly the one I'd pull the trigger on.

What does that dial look like ?

President · 10 June 2007, 07:46 AM

I agree 100%. I love this watch and consider it the grail of all of Rolex's models. I'd settle for platinum as well. Only if someone twisted my arm

Great choice Vernon! Let me light some romantic candles for you.

globalphotographic · 10 June 2007, 06:48 PM

Nice choice Larry!

I'd go for this one, which I already went for

The all gold is incredible however, but too much bling for me for now.
