Free Rolex!

Think about this one before you answer.

If Rolex offered you a free watch of your choice, any watch, on the condition you could never sell it, which one would you pick?


It has to be a 2019 production model. So no Red 1680s.

Platinum day date.

I would then sell every other watch I owned and commence to do yard work while wearing it.

I was travelling through Munich airport last week and saw a DD with a meteorite dial, which was stunning. So, based on that, I think I’d have to go for a meteorite GMT!

I’ll be an outlier. For me it would be the 326935: RG Sky-Dweller with rhodium dial. I think it’s absolutely stunning.

I would ask for a "Rain Check".

I already have the watch that I really wanted so one day they will bring something else out that I will really "Need".

I see most people are picking the most expensive models. I thought if you couldn't sell it that would deter that kind of answer but I realize that there is exclusivity involved so...

New question. If every Rolex cost exactly the same, all were $12k what would you pick?
