Id like to ask you guys for some advice. i currently own a wg datjust on a leather strap and id like to get another rolex.
being that i have a gold watch and id like to spend less than 10k for a second watch id like to hear what you suggest

Maybe its time for a SS sports watch.

GMTIIC or SubC.

Go try some on and get what YOU like, not what others suggest.

That's a beautiful watch you have. For a second one I'd suggest something sportier, anything with numbers on the bezel.

If you want to spend under $10k then I recommend a SS sport model. This would be a nice alternate addition to you gold model. Go try them all on and go with the one that sings to you.

Once you pull the trigger, post pictures of what you bought.

Good luck and have fun with your search.

vintage sub or gmt

shirtguy · 7 January 2012, 02:15 AM

what came to mind was either a sub maybe the hulk or the white face milgauss or the new explorer 2. the gmtii seems a bit like a tag.

I would go to an AD and try all the SS sport models.
What smiles to you is the one you have to buy!!!

Be careful with this advice.......the last time I went to an AD nothing smiled at me but the salesman.

(sorry can't resist)

how come no mention of the sub no date?

If you wait long enough someone will probably recommend this as well, just as someone might recommend the Milgauss, ExpI, ExpII, TOG, or AK.

If the Sub ND is the one you perfer, I say go for it.

The Submariner no-date would be a good choice but I personally prefer the GMT. You would end up with something a bit more complications than just giving the time (unless you're a diver) and it has a similar design.

How about a 14060M?
