Which two watch collection. Please vote!

[Porsche91101]

pick the two watch collection of the three options:

Option A
- Explorer 2 16570 white dial
- Yellow Gold Daytona 116528 w/ black dial

or

Option B
- GMT Master II 16710 w/ black bezel
- Yellow Gold Daytona 116528 w/ white dial

or:

Option C
- White Gold GMT Master 116719 w/ black dial
- Yellow Gold Day Date mid 80s 18238 w/ white dial


Want black and white dial in the two watch collection.

They are generally same price point as the yellow gold Daytona is much higher in value/cost than the white gold gmt. Would love to hear thoughts/opinions! Just having fun soliciting ideas from watch enthusiasts like yourselves!

Two watches is a pair, they are not a collection. That’s my idea.

[KatGirl]

Option B is a great black and white dial duo, and I didn’t have to give it much thought. It’s the classiest pair.

I’d go for option D - 16570 for the white dial and 16710 for the black dial.

You’d save a load of cash, these are classics and I’m generally not a fan of yellow gold.you could take the 116719 instead of the 16710 if you really want a gold watch (that must be option E).

I'd take the 116719 and leave the rest.

If you are truly committed to 2 watches only, I would say 16710 and a RO jumbo. Drop the Daytona and DD

Its funny but I always wondered what the cut off is. I’ve even heard of one watch collections

[Oxfordian]

None of these appeal, two collections have Daytona's which are my least popular Rolex watch and the Day Date isn't close to the top of my list.

For me I would have to two dwellers; a SS SkyDweller white dial and TTSeaDweller

And two watches don't make a collection, so I'd add a Speedy.

Choice D - None of the above

[karleone]

Option B and you have one of the most versatile Rolex ever made!
For the gold Daytona if you can find an unpolished it’s a big plus. If repolished make sure the polishing job was well done!

I'm in this camp.

[Benzsiam]

I preferred PM timepieces over SS, I would go for 2 PM watches.

This is the way

A. Gives you a tool and a jewel. 16570 is very under rated. Pics for evidence:

An even more maddening concept

[saywhat44]

Option B

[Apdl]

If it were me, and I was going for the Black and White
226570 Polar EXP2
126234 Datejust Black

[Porsche91101]

Thanks all, keep them coming! Slight wrench thrown in there - for option B what if 16710 was replaced by 116710LN? Would that better or worsen the set?

[subtona]

Exp II and whatever.

[SS Oyster]

I’d go Option D

WG GMT Master 2 116719 black dial
Explorer 2 226570 white (polar) dial

116710LN and YG DD, would be my choice for the pair if you must have a gold piece in the mix.

[worldofoyster]

tough choice

[JRell]

I picked B but I would also get the YG Daytona with a black dial. Green dial would be the best.
