The one that excites you the most and gives you that warm, fuzzy feeling of satisfaction every time you look at your wrist.

I understand why most collectors prefer the original dial/hands etc, but I wanted something that BNIB from the 1970's, so a serviced Rolex fit the bill..

This is exactly what I'm looking for!

The greatest sporting trophy to win IMHO. Whats the saying..."a crown for every achievement" Great memories whenever i check the time.

that is amazing

true collectors piece with a fantastic provenance

I'd say any Sub without a date, which is to say a Submariner.

I'm partial to this one in particular.

Definitely not the most valuable, but these are the subs I can afford, which make them great daily watches. In my mind the 16800 is another great submariner model- I have a 83 and 84 of this model. Lastly, any vintage sub is great model to own, in my case it's only a Tudor Submariner 7928 from 1966, but the aged look make this an interesting watch as well.

The 1983 with matte dial is my grail to add to my 16610. Beautiful!!

5513. Plain, straightforward and beautiful.

I don't know what it is in general but for me, I like the military sub with the sword hands and NATO strap. But I've seen pictures somewhere of a sub with 369 dial, I like the look but I'm not sure if that's authentic I've only seen pictures and don't really know anything about it.
