I’m with you on the Sub, although for me it’s the 5 digit model. The 6 digit in my opinion doesn’t sit as nice on my wrist.
But for some reason one still would up on my wrist lol.

Although I've no use for the GMT function I absolutely adore the Everose-Gold GMT-Master II, the so-called "Root Beer". For me the most beautiful Rolex in the current collection!

Which watch fuels your passion for Rolex?

I've gone through many different models and have settled with those I've go without much desire to expand. I wear them all in rotation and far prefer my Rolex to any other brand's models. For me I reached the pinnacle when I obtained my Platinum Daytona. Everything else I own is strictly embellishment to perfection.

For me, there is no one watch that drives my interest in Rolex. I’m interested in Rolex because I’m interested in watches. At some point in any WIS journey, one has to acknowledge and respect the crown (even if one does not acquire a Rolex).

Pretty much any of the standard Rolex models makes me appreciate the brand. Whenever a a Rolex is on wrist, I’m reminded of the consistency, quality, and good design.

My 6mo old daughter threw up all over my Omega FOIS strap yesterday. Soooo Oyster bracelets from now on. 114060 is absolutely bomb proof.
