Just the steel submariner. It’s always been my favourite and is the perfect watch for my life. While I do have a datejust, I never really wear it, so I consider myself a very contented one-watch-person.

This one. Which I have. I lusted after it for a number of years and love it's simplicity. The dial reminds me of pocket watches and it has an enamel dial.

The one I’ll never have.

After all this time, I’m certain it doesn’t exist.

But forever I searched for it. It feels like I’ve tried everything.

40(ish) mm. Not too big. Not too small.
100 meter depth
Super strong lume
Date/day
Timing bezel
Wearable in any situation
Rubber strap
Deployant buckle
Durable
