Milgauss and AK (just not my thing), along with a Daytona (wears way too small for my wrists).

Would never buy a Celini, Milgauss, air king, any Yacht Master and any Daytona- just don’t like the look of them.

To be sure, I love almost all Rolex references. There are only a handful that are not for me, including:
Womens models (obviously) DateJust - greasy old man vibes, not pleasing to the eye Daytona - too small, no date, poor legibility, 0% practical application, less durable than other options. OP - great history but kinda boring and not as good a value as other references. Watches I love love love: Sub, GMTII, Sea-Dweller, DeepSea, YM, SkyDweller, Milgauss, Explorer II, and most 18kt gold references. Cheers, B

For myself, I would never buy any two-tone YG/RG Rolex, or any Rolex with diamonds on the case, bezel or bracelet. With few exceptions that can pull it off (Johnny Depp-like bohemians), I generally dislike bling and sparkly jewelry on men.

I only like the OP39 and the Explorer. I like simple, no date, no big bezel, and can be worn with anything.
I have owned almost every SS model at one point and could never fall in love with any of them. I sold them all and won't be going back. |

Never want the air king. |

I really like all Rolex references, there is not only one I dislike. The YM II is beautiful to my eyes and the AK, Milgauss, jubilee, oyster, president, rubber, all Rolexes but I like divers more.

Tastes change but I couldn’t see me going after a Pearl master or Cellini any time soon. Can add the Serties dials too.

I wouldn't like to wear:
1- any Cellini, I think there are nicer & cheaper dress watches available 2- the YM2, I think it's gaudy & huge 3- current AK, way too much going on & it seems like a hodgepodge 4- SkyD, same as the YM2, I think it's too busy & too big 5- "regular" OPs, too boring to me 6- DJs without fluted bezels 7- DSSD, too big for me |
