A 5513 is never a bad thing!!!


Something with Red?


Or something with white!


I know you like GMT's...how about a 1675?


Or a 16750?


Something transitional??? 16800


16700

The one I am after is not in the option above. Daytona TT. The one I like from the list above is TT GMT II, but already got it.

I think a DJ should be part of any Rolex collection. You seem to lack one in your list of watches so I voted for a DJ.

You`re on a roll Bisquitlips! I voted for the Daytona Meteorite, I mean....it`s a frikkin space rock!! Unless you have a Millenium Falcon as a daily driver (wich you don`t, I saw your Beemer) It just doesen`t come any cooler than that!
Ever considered adopting?

Now to help me decide which watch will be my next acquisition:

My leanings are toward:

1. A WG Meteorite Daytona

2. A TT GMT II

3. A GMT IIc SS

4. A 41mm Datejust. Concentric Dial. (If I can find one)!

Your vote please...
Your my hero

Ok, well enough time has passed.

The Meteorite Daytona it is! And I have to agree that is my favorite.

Thus the great Daytona Meteorite hunt begins today!

This may take awhile!

I agree Richard, you need at least 5 and if you have five we can talk about why you don't have six...but that will be a little later

I voted for the GMT IIc since you like your GMT II so very much...

richard, the daytona is the best rolex model out there. i love it with all my heart and if i can buy every single daytona i would. once you jump the daytona band wagon it's kind of hard to get out. start with the white gold meteorite!

The YG Daytona meteorite dial is on a planet of it's own.

Richard, just get something vintage, you will really enjoy it as something different from all your 'new' current models.

Actually this watch sold in April 2008 through a Cathay Pacific in flight channel shop on the back of someones headrest for US$25,000.

Prices have dropped quite a lot since then.
