Ahhh, the heavy metal five! WG SubC and YG DD are first to go on the list. Picking a dial would be a challenge for the President. WG Daytona with silver dial/black subdials is next on the list: the current rendition of the Paul Newman. YG GMT has always caught my eye, so that makes number four. I would need a platinum example to round out the top five, and I would have to try on every Plat in the AD. If I have to decide now, then the Daytona gets the nod...dials and bezels TBD.

Happy New Year to all!

Even if money were no object, I would still go with my wishlist:


Well......maybe I would have to throw the platinum Daytona in there and remove the DatejustII

First post here. Just in case "timely" hits the lottery, I didn't want to miss out on a good freebi.

Rose gold president
Platinum Daytona
Last three would have to be vintage.

Money no object...
I would have to have an ALS datograph!
I think they are beautiful but just not going to happen with the money i work for:)


Then, If there is some leftover, i would throw in an annual calendar Patek & a platinum Daytona.


But if i could let it ride, ill take Health & Happiness:)


Happy New Year!

If money was no object I would have 3 Rolex watches:
Plat DDII
YG GMTIIC LN
Plat Daytona

And probably a Plat Patek and VC or Lange.

I think I can live with that. ROFL
