Which new model old style clasp do you prefer?

I am going to pick up my last new model old style clasp soon, new not used. Ignore what "speaks to me" because I already have everything in that category and just want another watch. I do not have anything on the list and am just adding to my collection. I'm not a flipper but may sell it in the future, as with anything. Enough background, what is your knee jerk reaction to this list?

What happened to the GMT as a choice or do you already have one? As for the Explorer II I would choose the Polar and for a Sub I would pick a ND

Sub date in the lead! I do like the Maxi Dial on the LV. Just not the green so much.

I guess Sub date, since you don't have a sub, or polar Explorer, if you want a white dial. Seems like you want a fill-in-the-blank watch, so, Sub date it is!

Tough call, though, since I need to have "the calling" from the watch before I get it, as opposed to wanting "another watch".

I voted for the Sub Date, but an LV with a black bezel would be great!
