Do you think that 16234 or 116234 are the most classic models ?

I want to hear your opinion.
Thanks.
Chow.

That and the 16233 TT datejust & the Submariner are the most recognized.

I think the TT date just is most recognized by the non WIS public as " the Rolex"

16234 and 116234 are really the same watch. 116234 is more newer and has polished lugs, sel end links, and improved clasp/

I wholeheartedly agree with these statements... When I am in Asia my 116231 always sparks up conversations, in the Americas not so much... To answer your question Mr. Chow yes the 16234 and the 116234 are classic models, I would not say the most but they are!
