The answer is easy

The most exciting Rolex is the one that excites its owner/wearer the most.

What it is not, is one that excites someone else

I suspect you may be asking the wrong question here?

Welcome to the forum

If a pop of colour is what you mean, there are plenty of options as mentioned above:

The BLRO is my favorite. There’s also many more

My eyes get excited when I see any model with lots of bling. But I guess they're mostly over 30K.

Agree with first one but after owning most the desirables, the one that gets me the most excited to wear is this one!

I'm in the Sky D camp. Especially blue dial. Especially especially once you understand what you're looking at.

Submariner being perfect yet boring makes sense.

OVER $30K the Platinum w/ Ice Blue Dial Daytona.

UNDER $30K, for what you’re looking for … a little bling, a little pop … never boring, always fun …

the Submariner “Bluesy”.

DJ or DD, config w color. Of course I’m partial to anything blue. When I see a DJ or DD in the wild, I always get more of a thrill than seeing another one of the hyped sports models.

For me…it’s the Day Date my wife gave me just before we got married, the Pepsi my kids gave me when I turned 50 and the ones that have a real history behind them. But my go to every day has been my platinum D D since I got it….

Other than the “first” one, it has to be the “unobtainable ones”!
