If you HAD to pick just 1..
This is obviously a hypothetical question:

If you had to pick only one watch to own and wear what would it be?

Here's mine: 114060

Tough one. Maybe this PP as it can be dressed up/down.

If I were to have only one watch (Rolex or otherwise) to wear, my djii tt would be it. A great piece for almost all occasions.

Yup. They're very different pieces. One is crazy heavy and bling while the other is featherlight and classy. The DD2 probably gets slightly more wrist time at the moment.

Are we talking about watches currently in our collection or grails? I'd change my answer if grails are allowed.

sub 14060/m, it's appropriate with a tux of at the beach and anywhere in between.

I'd still stick with my answer, grail or not. I'm simple I guess.

Your taste is impeccable, mate!

I've tried just about everything, and I think I'm going to land on the 114060.
