Looking for my second Rolex !!!

Hey guys,

I'm looking for my 2nd Rolex which will be available when my sub goes for service. Yeah, now I know why many people say this forum is bad Second rolex in a month . Anyway, can you guy recommend me a model with these requirements :

- Trip lock crown
- No rotating bezel ( I want a solid bezel like the explorer, or airking)
- No circles in circle( no crono... , no Daytona )

I have done some research and it comes out that the Daytona is the best, but the Daytona has the crono... function which I hate DO you guys know any model satisfy all these things

Thank you very much
Better than best regards

EXP2 fits all of your requirements. Why does a rotating bezel bother you?

Exp 2 doesn't have the triplock I really like a big crown

The rotating bezel will get dirt under easily ( that's what others say ). I don't have any problems with it, just because I have a sub with rotating bezel already, now I want something solid and look different

Go with the ExpII you won't be sorry. I think all the trip locks have a rotating bezel for diving purposes otherwise why have a trip lock if it's not necessary?

I would go for a Datejust, every Rolex enthusiast should have at least one. Its a great all around watch, while your sub is in service. Here is a perfect example:

Yeah I agree with the Milgauss option. I bought a sub as my first Rolex, and like you wanted a second pretty quickly, so went for the White Milgauss. I love it and have loads of comments from people when they spot it. It's a great watch.
