Strangely the BLNR is at the bottom of my list. Dislike the colors a lot.

Milgauss, has the wrong proportions somehow, looks like a bloated OP. Particularly dislike the Z-Blue, the dial and crystal composition on that really hurts my eyes. Not hot on the new Air King either, obviously the same proportions issue and I feel it was a bit of an uninspired parts bin dive to randomly recycle the Mark I Explorer’s 3-6-9 indexes in the midst of minute markings.

The main thing wrong with the new air king is that it has air king written on it. That green and black combo is great!

Other than the Yachtmaster II, I don't feel much strong dislike for any Rolex. I will add that I think every ceramic bezel model looked better pre-ceramic, especially the Daytona.
