YMII, Air King, Milgauss and Cellini.

Rockland · 2 August 2020, 12:30 PM

Hulk, Daytona, Datejust

Seddyspaghetti · 2 August 2020, 12:32 PM

Ym2

Golfbone · 2 August 2020, 01:12 PM

Hulk. Anything with diamonds. Cellini.

JSCP · 2 August 2020, 01:55 PM

Buy only what you like. So that means if you don’t have it, that’s means you don’t like or want to spend money on it.l, or you don’t have the funds, or you can get them anyway.

People should buy to enjoy

Journeyforce · 2 August 2020, 01:56 PM

For me it has to be the following:

1. Daytona - Overpriced for what it is (If you must buy a iconic chronograph then get a Omega Speedmaster Moon Watch)

2. YM II - Not attractive at all

3. Milgauss - I hate the tinted crystal and the odd second hand

4. Explorer I (39mm) - I like the older 36mm size but hate the 39mm current version because I think it is too big for what it is (a field watch)

5. DateJust with the Wimbledon dial - You have Roman numerals with the exception of the crown at 12 and the date at 3 and then all of a sudden you have a stick marker at 9. That is ugly

Bruno007 · 2 August 2020, 02:50 PM

I don't see myself ever buying an Air King, Yacht Master or Cellini. None of those models appeal to me.

Snake Plissken · 2 August 2020, 03:26 PM

I think every model has some specific references/specs I would never buy, but in terms of overall model:

YM2
YM1
Air King
Cellini
OP

escobar144 · 2 August 2020, 03:34 PM

Oyster Perpetual 39.

Great watch but felt too entry level. Sold it to fund a Submariner

omar10213245 · 2 August 2020, 03:50 PM

milguass - the seconds hand is ridiculous to me.

air king - nothing about this model resonates with me, i find it to be boring.

and, for what it's worth, i doubt i'd ever get an oyster perpetual, unless i was feeling frisky and opted for the grape dial.

Rolexlover43 · 2 August 2020, 08:13 PM

A Day Date on leather strap! Cannot get worse!

yoast · 2 August 2020, 08:54 PM

- Anything 2 tone
- YM2

Excellent decision. Now you have a watch that looks exactly like pretty much every other $100 watch out there! Except it's less accurate.

gnuyork · 2 August 2020, 09:18 PM

New Air King, New Explorer II, and Sky Dweller. All too big. I actually like the YMII even though it's big. But I prefer the regular YM any day.

brnalkn · 2 August 2020, 09:21 PM

Only Cellini.

s&s · 2 August 2020, 09:36 PM

I won’t buy OP39 (again)... I liked it a lot at first but then the bezel just started hurting my eyes. Flipped it and got a dj41 instead, don’t really need or want the date but the smooth bezel is so much nicer than the one on OP39.

bay-dweller · 3 August 2020, 12:13 PM

Nothing 36mm or smaller
Unless it is for my wife 😁

bronxbombers42 · 3 August 2020, 12:57 PM

Definitely the YMII for me. Just not something that I’ve ever connected with and the dial/bezel seem way too loud

Doc Savage · 3 August 2020, 01:48 PM

Sky Dweller. I don't care for the design.

k_buckle · 3 August 2020, 05:45 PM

M126660-0002 is never for me, it is way too big for my little wrist.

peterskinner · 3 August 2020, 05:51 PM

They must all have fans, or Rolex would not make them.
I dislike the Skydweller, YM11 and hulk. No particular reason, I just do. Come to think of it, not too keen on coloured bezels in general. So add the GMT.

Yaz · 3 August 2020, 07:01 PM

Cellini

Daytona- my chrono will ALWAYS be the Speedy Pro MOTM!

Highlatitude · 4 August 2020, 07:27 AM

Anything that fits one or more of the following descriptions:

Jewels, Gold, TT, Chronograph, bright coloured ceramic bezel, greater than 40mm, is a Professional model with a jubilee, too shiny, YM2, Hulk. I have to sacrifice dignity to buy it.

Wait... that’s every model covered.

173rdabn · 4 August 2020, 07:28 AM

The ones I can't afford.

Hollie_Rollie · 4 August 2020, 07:47 AM

Any model at the current grey prices

Maybe someone who races yachts and is so comfortably off that he/she doesn’t care if it gets damaged in the pursuit. If you can afford to race your own offshore yacht: chances are that YM cost is much less than your annual mooring fee!
