Thoughts on this three watch Rolex collection - which PM would you add

[JSolution]

Firstly, if you came here for some high definition photos you’ve come to the wrong place ha..
Not my Best attribute!

Three of my favourite watches here. Pretty much every base covered here for me to be honest.

I have a lot of others aswell but after having owned or still owning most models, I could live with these three (not that I will ha).

What’s your take on these three as a collection?

And as a side note - which PM would you personally choose to go with these three? Not looking for advice because I own a few just a bit of a fun :) I’m guessing the resounding answer here will be a PM Daytona but that probably wouldn’t be my choice.

PM Daytona OF. You have the fluted bezel covered so barring platinum DD they are out. You have jubilee, oyster, diver and GMT covered too so. Daytona gives you a different bezel, different and different strap option. Great collection btw.

[Lukebennett21]

^^^ agreed

[ks58]

Love the PM Daytona

[Robf52]

Full gold CHNR.

[Watchdoyouwant?]

Meteorite GMT

[Chute]

Looking at that collection, I was thinking to go low key, either an OP41 or a Platinum Day Date with the smooth bezel

I have this watch and I agree it would be a great fit in this collection. Problem is I love love love yellow gold so I’d probably make it a YG watch.

Platinum Day Date is “low key?”

[brandrea]

First, you have a fantastic collection Jay

When I think PM Rolex, for me … it’s gotta be a Day Date

It actually is funnily enough tried a couple on yesterday. I’ve always liked the blue dial baguette version but the smooth bezel on it is a no from me - because it makes it so much more of a causal watch - which I can see the appeal of.

Thanks Brian. Yeah I do think a YG day date is a good fit here - honestly there’s probably not a wrong answer :)

[Roddypeepa]

Daytona or GMT? Prob Daytona

My opinion is that a TT DJ, a Sky-D and a Day-Date in a 4 watch collection is as one-sided on the fluted bezel/slightly dressier side as most Sub/GMT/Daytona collections are weighted towards sports/professional models.

You guys are blowing my mind.

Gold Submariner

[jssans]

Day Date in any metal but platinum.
No fluted bezel on platinum models.
Smooth bezels are for Grand Seikos.
Flame suit on.

Probably a 11813x, or 11613x, if still available from AD. Probably YG/white dial or WG/blue dial. Likely would want to pick up multiple straps for either.

I only like PM (for myself) as a dress watch, and prefer dress watches on leather.

This ^. Different complication to what you already have.

Gold sub with blue dial.
You have the DD mostly covered with that DJ.
If you go DD get the white dial for contrast.
YG=real gold.

I agree with your argument the day date kinda covered in the datejust here.

Pm blue sub is a great suggestion and one I do not yet own and have always wanted to.

I would add a Daytona, RG or YG

[Harry-57]

For variety I'd go with a GMT Master. My preference would be the WG BLRO.

I can't tell you what you like best, although whatever you chose you won't go wrong, and you'll have a superb Rolex group in your collection.

[RoRoRo]

I’m gonna say 36mm day date on leather. Someone on here picked up NOS.

In order to not make the DJ redundant, the 36mm on leather would make it different and special enough

[HogwldFLTR]

Full white gold Daytona with dial of your choice!!! Not OF but full bracelet would be the way to go. Any other all gold Daytona as an alternate. President is too similar to the DJ unless you feel like ditching it. The PM GMT would be too much like the Sub, too.

I think that one is now out of reach for non VVIPs but the RG Daytona is still buyable and the most Patek-like in feel of any Rolex I have owned. Blue Sub is obviously a great piece and so quintessentially Rolex.

[Horationelson]

Get a Lange or Vacheron in rose gold. A Rolex in PM will not add as much in variety given that you already have three Rolexes in the collection. If it had to be a Rolex, then Cellini Moonphase is the way to go.
