Have to be a Patek Phillipe for me...

DavidHasselhoff · 30 January 2008, 08:29 PM

I think I'd pick this one...

Truly grail status since it's locked up in a museum and only one exists.

frostie · 30 January 2008, 10:03 PM

that's part of been greedy and addicted to rolex

And at 132 mm it would fit right in with today's trend toward larger diameter watches.

Yeah. Imagine strapping a wristband on that one...

Gurmot · 30 January 2008, 10:48 PM

Double Red Sea Dweller from 1967. Please. Pretty Please.

Trurolexer · 30 January 2008, 10:59 PM

Let me see....Hmmm....Almost every Rolex sports is GRAIL to me....But the most GRAIL is this three :
Expy II 1655 McQueen
Daytona Paul Newman
Submariner Military

TARDIS · 30 January 2008, 11:01 PM

The one with the Meteorite dial would be my grail.

Rolex - President Metorite Dial (w/ German Days....Montag, Dienstag, Mittwoch, ect..)
Non-Rolex - Harry Winston Opus 6

rpryan55 · 31 January 2008, 01:04 AM

First, it was a YG DD. Then I got one, so it became a Patek Aquanaut. Then I got one, so it became the SS Daytona. Then I got one.....and I realized that this grail business is getting freaking expensive!

But I'd love the Ulysse Nardin Freak. I'll never get it, but I love that watch.

LUGNUT · 31 January 2008, 01:20 AM

In a Rolex it would be a Platinum Yachtmaster for now, Big Holey Grail is a
Omega ploprof.

1MAC · 31 January 2008, 01:39 AM

I would love to have the 6263. Luckily, at the prices they command, I'll never be burdened with owning one.

rgf · 31 January 2008, 03:43 AM

Platinum DD, pres bracelet, meteorite dial, diamond markers, smooth bezel. Oh yea!

Jedi · 31 January 2008, 03:45 AM

Rolex - Milgauss

Non-Rolex - PP Nautilus

Alex Stylianou · 31 January 2008, 04:04 AM

martinlag · 31 January 2008, 04:32 AM

If it had to be a Rolex, maybe the CREAM (read: perfectly discolored) faced Explorer II (ref. 16550).

1976 · 31 January 2008, 05:12 AM

A 1530 from the year of introduction (1976

)

Hope someday I will have one, it's my absolute favorite!

Jimbits76 · 31 January 2008, 05:13 AM

WG Daytona with bracelet and meteorite face...jawdropping
1976 Sub...year of my birth
Breguet Marine Chronograph....beautiful
JlC Master Ultra Thin in rose gold...how is it possible??????????

And again NOT MY PHOTO

I'm with Mike. The 6542 is the ticket. But who wouldn't love a Pussy Galore?!

The Opus is very interesting. There are more makers that don't follow the 'straight and narrow' and produce very creative and technically outstanding timepieces. But even if I had the money I wouldn't purchase one. I can't make the connection with these watches. Too outlandish to me. Even Lange's split-hands design is too rich for me

I'm just an old-fashioned old geezer

maz · 31 January 2008, 10:17 AM

Me, after I buy my GMT II C....I think it would have to be a Panerai w/10 day power reserve. Me likey. -Nik

Robb · 31 January 2008, 10:19 AM
