Don't know what it is about this time of year but it seems as though usually I am looking at making a move. This time I want something durable with a more POP.

I have not before before really looked at these, strange but these are new to my wish list. Not going to dive after more than one, (well I kinda hope not).

The YM II in SS 116680. I had only seen pictures, as my local AD never seems to have one but they just received one along with a YG one. After having a chance to put them on the wrist, even with the stickers they are standouts. I think the YG might be too much, but who knows.

GMTII YG & BLRO. Seeing these in person has my head swimming, damn these look good in person, can't get over either one.

The Platona is awesome but I have a hard time with size.

I have a Panerai, AP's, Pateks, and a few Rolex, yet I am drawn to these Rolex. I thought I was diversifying somewhat, but these 5 are constantly running through my head. Basel is only a few weeks away, but I am struggling with the need for retail therapy. Somehow the SS YM II and the GMT YG & BLRO won't stop calling out to me.

These are each about as flashy as Rolex gets without getting silly with stones. But a little flash in my collection would be good.

What to do, Yikes!

Yellow gold Sub.

JS4LUV · 6 February 2016, 04:01 PM

In 10k range, I'd go w/ SS YM2. Its size n also the blue bezel really pops out, imo. In 20k range, gotta go w/ GMT 2 w/ green dial.

Spartacus · 6 February 2016, 04:08 PM

Wait for Basel!

Abdullah71601 · 6 February 2016, 04:20 PM

Milgauss (not my picture). Plenty of pop, but not flashy as PM.

I just did the WG SUB. I had just bought a BLNR last year. Had that not been the case I would have gotten the BLRO.

Having said that, my vote goes to the BLRO. Functional and under the radar.

Rocco21 · 7 February 2016, 03:50 AM

I would either go ymii ss or blro.any of the choices you mentioned are great though.

ap1 · 7 February 2016, 05:43 AM

Blro

lmcgbaj · 7 February 2016, 05:44 AM

Blro

ncboiler · 7 February 2016, 05:57 AM

Go for some YG if you don't have some colour and flash.
