The quality and shine that the Oyster bracelet radiates. The iconic cyclops that defines the piece as a Rolex. The word Superlative - I have yet to find a practical way to use this in the real world.

For me the weight is a big part of the appeal, plus the knowledge that I could actually use any one of them for sporting activity or as a dress watch if I really wanted to, ie the versatility.

The shine of the white gold bezel on my Datejust. And the feel of it.
