Would have to be a Patek 3712. Shame that 5 years ago these were going for £20k and a few years before that, £12k. How times change!

Patek Aquanaut or Nautilus for me since 30K is still a long ways from a Platona.

VC Overseas Chrono, blue dial, keep the hype watches, I want some substance for that kind of money.

It'd be either the Smurf Submariner or the Oysterflex Rose Gold Daytona, because both would use the majority of that $30k.

30K is too much for some watches and not enough to get to a grail. Probably a WG DD II with the silver diamond dial.

If it had to be a Rolex, probably a WG DD40 with a white roman dial.

Could see myself easily wearing that for the rest of my life.

YG Sub 116618LB although I really should get a dressier watch maybe a Lange 1 moon phase or PP 5146J. Who am I kidding, I would get the Sub!

Currently, I'd probably get a WG DD40 with blue dial and romans.

Or add for a PP5712.
