I like your choices Bo. Especially the vintage.

Me, it'd be this one. Not my pic

I am sure that daytona is going to be the winner at this poll cause there is scarcity of them. It seems though that our friend forgot to include the ceramic GMT

Voted Sub, but it'll either be that or a DJ. I'm waiting to see if any changes to the Sub are forthcoming at Basel.

If I had all the money in the world, it wouldn't matter--I'd buy one of everything. The "next one" would be the next one I saw.

But what if I had exactly $5k in the watch fund?

Exp-II, white dial. No question.

I'd have the milgauss followed by the exp. II.
I love both these as they are not your 'in your face' rolexes, if you know what i mean. Which is why i lurve my little old 15210.

As I've said before, I don't think I need another ROLRX. I'm perfectly fine with my GMT. But hypothetically speaking and only hypothetically, the only watch I'd buy, is a SS Daytona...

I agree with you 100%, but if I were to ever get another one, it will be a ss DJ white face and roman numerals. But I seriously doubt I will get another one. I am perfectly happy with my GMT and all the scrathes that are one it.

my thoughts exactly.... im sure all jokes aside... its pretty safe to say no one would pick it.. especially if they had all the money in the world.. unless there was some crazy sentimental value or bond with airkings.. i just dont see it happening.
