Help me with my next watch
Hey guys,
I really don't know what I should do. I would like to buy my first nice and expensive watch but I just can't decide which one. Hopefully you can help me with my decision. :) Submariner Date GMT Master 2 Chopard Mille Miglia I guess you will tell me to decide between the two Rolex watches as this is the Rolex Forum but the Chopard is a really beautiful watch and it's a lot cheaper...ahhhh Help me :) Thanks! |

You can't go wrong with either one of the Rolexes. I prefer the sub but tough choice. Let us know what you decide.

I don't think you can go wrong with either Submariner Date or
the GMT IIc. However the Sub is prob the most "iconic" watch in the world. Good luck and I hope you consider purchasing your watch from one of our many upstanding TRF members..... |

Which one smiles at you when you try it on?
In this price range I could add a dozen other watches. What are you looking for besides "nice and expensive"? Dress watch, diver, weekend watch . . . ?

They all smile at me :) That's my problem...
I'm looking for a watch for daily use and that will last for a long time. |

Just got back from an AD and looked at the Submariner and the GMT Master 2. I'm really confused. I kind of like the GMT more but it's 1k more expensive.
The Submariner is still are very nice watch............. Help me :) |

I travel a lot so I got the GMT 2c. It is an amazing watch. That being said if I didn't travel as much I would get the Sub. It is such a classic and is nice and understated.
