What is your least favorite Rolex model?
excluding the YM II, of course. That's too easy.
Day-Date doesn't do much for me. |

Leopard Daytona. I actually saw it in person along with the Zebra DJ.
Zebra DJ was ugly too, but the Leopard Daytona is on a whole different level of ugly. |

Sport model is Milgauss
36mm is anything that does not have luminous on hour and minute hand. |

ice gmt, leopard daytona, milgauss and turn-o-graph.
of course, ym-ii would be high on the list but you've wisely made it a given that it won't get many favorable voes. |

In addition to those two - which I agree are the absolute worst - on a par with the YM-II - the TT Blue Sub is right up there for me, followed closely by the Root Beer GMT (sorry Allan).

I think the diamond stuff is per the customer, some like, some don't. They don't bother me.
I do not like the Cellini stuff, the straps don't do too much for me either. |

That's rubber? I didn't realize that. Rubber and diamonds that's not something you see every day. I think I may need to change my vote.

The Milgauss. It will always be rare because they should only sell about a dozen of them.

Nope. When I'm on the water being casual I wear this. When I'm on the water being serious.... ....then I wear this. This is a pretentious lump, IMHO reserved for cockatoos strutting the dock who talk the talk but don't walk the walk.
