Mine is a white-faced SS Daytona, though it likely won't actually come until 2012. Maybe a GMT manufactured in the year of my birth.

Hopefully 2011 will bring me a rose gold daytona. Thats the plan but I may well get side tracked along the way lol

BB83 · 2 January 2011, 05:25 AM

For those looking for (non-vintage) Daytonas in 2011, here's a plug for the 16520, the Zenith Daytona.

I was lucky enough to pick up one here on TRF a few months ago and absolutely LOVE it. It's a white dial with black subdials, which to my personal taste provides a sharper look than the chrome subdials on the 116520 --although the new ones are awesome too.

Also, mine is a Series A serial, which combines the Zenith movement with the SEL bracelet and Luminova markers. The Series A was only made for a couple of years (1998-2000 I think) before the 116520 was introduced, so to my mind it's a bit more unique and difficult to find among the modern Daytonas. Plus the SEL bracelet is supposedly better against stretching.

If you're interested I saw that lawrenceb re-listed the one I didn't buy from him (almost the same as the one I did--he's a great seller!) in the classifieds a few days ago!

Best of luck to everyone in getting what you want in the new year!

G.J · 2 January 2011, 06:06 AM

I have no wishes for 2011 I am afraid, I think it's time to enjoy the collection for a few years..

(this heavenly peace of mind will probably change within a few minutes..

)

JBat · 2 January 2011, 06:45 AM

I have a DJ coming, and I would also like to acquire a 14060 or polar Exp II. After that, I need to chill.

kcmo · 2 January 2011, 06:54 AM

Nothing new for me....boring answer I know!

Still enjoying the thrill that my current two give me

darthmouse · 2 January 2011, 07:04 AM

Now that I have a job, I can save for a red Sub... It will take some work.

axjimenez · 2 January 2011, 07:30 AM

Two - One Rolex and One Omega

Speedie Pro
Explorer II

Dan2010 · 2 January 2011, 07:41 AM

Waiting to see what shows up at Basel but some sort of Datejust is probably the next on my list as well the 14060M.

awright102 · 2 January 2011, 07:43 AM

A sea deweller 16600. I think about getting one of these day and night!

z32turbo · 2 January 2011, 07:50 AM

Sub C LV for me!!!!

Lucy Diamond · 2 January 2011, 08:00 AM

Hopefully this will be the year of the Meteorite!

detyler · 2 January 2011, 08:50 AM

116523

Yazo · 2 January 2011, 08:58 AM

Nice!!

yanansi · 2 January 2011, 12:11 PM

Sub C or Daytona

dnagwhogas · 2 January 2011, 03:59 PM

I'm looking at Deep Sea or a TT GMT2C.... just the thought of wearing those timepieces excites me.

Kiddodoc · 2 January 2011, 11:03 PM

116233, 116610LV, 116619 and maybe a coke 16710

chillviper · 2 January 2011, 11:12 PM

I just picked up a completely RSC redone 1675 from 1965. I'd like to pick up the last sub model prior to them adding the date function, white gold surrounds or sapphire crystal.

vukotab · 2 January 2011, 11:53 PM

Sub 14060M and Tudor Heritage Chrono!

veidtadrian · 3 January 2011, 12:29 AM

Though I already have a 16610, I want to get a 14060 and put in on nato now.
Originally, I desired an EXP ii but now I believe my next acquisition shall be the aforementioned 14060.

Long term, would still prefer to get a president at some point [though, still young so rather invest my earnings than spending it on all yg Rolex...]

Zed Homme · 3 January 2011, 12:43 AM

For Rolex, I'd really like a milgauss and perhaps a sub c. I want to get my SO a 178384. Then after those pieces it will be time to go vintage for me. However, I think the first watch will be a Cartier calibre.

rocco_uk · 3 January 2011, 12:46 AM

Sea Dweller
Sub c
GMT IIc

I would be happy with 2/3 from the above

none..just to enjoy the four I already have

Gerardus · 3 January 2011, 02:12 AM

Seem for me, i bought by barky last week.
So I think and hope that I am not getting a flip-mood in 2011.
Sorry for the very bad pic...

GradyPhilpott · 3 January 2011, 03:08 AM

It probably won't happen this year and maybe it will never happen, but I do share your desire for a 14060M. The price is really getting up there to where it's really not the bargain it was just a couple of years ago, but we'll see what happens at Basel. Some SELs might throw me over the edge.

Woody · 3 January 2011, 04:02 AM

Explorer II (Black), 1803 (on leather strap) or a Tudor Heritage.........but probably the Explorer

pz93c · 3 January 2011, 04:16 AM

Don't have a target.

You never know which vintage opportunity will present itself.

mjm800 · 3 January 2011, 04:18 AM

I would like to get an Explorer II but only if the rumored big orange GMT hand model is introduced.
