Which sport RG piece would you suggest?

Hi all So recently I've sold my rg AP44 as I needed to help my family a bit and traded my 116515 to fund the lange zeitwerk now I've received the money back.
Now I'm in need of an all rounder RG piece and I think it's not a wise move to reacquire the pieces that I've recently sold despite I love them so much.

The requirement for this piece is:
-rosegold or full gold
-versatile
-preferably rubber strap or full bracelet



I'm highly considering the 126715

No doubt the great pp 5167r, the rose gold aquanaut, fits the bill perfectly.

METAS spec chronometer, solid sedna gold, rubber strap with deployant.

My Aqua Terra is my go to choice when I want something for everyday wear.

AP15500 fits the bill and a bit sportier than the day-date

I'm personally not a big fan of gold sports watches but I do like the rose gold Rolex GMT Master II.

Hi guys thanks for the input! I think I'll me a good deal on the 126715chnr for now as the ceramic bezel seems to be my best bet for an only gold piece in the collection

OP, you and I have the same taste.

I am thinking of a similar watch and given the suggestions here, the Omega looks nice. Also there is GO SeaQ in 18K.

The new Sedna Gold Speedmaster is a slam dunk. I'm also one of those who thinks the Omega's lack of image immediately raises it above many if not most of the competition. I also love the Journe and the Aquanaut, although I wouldn't wear a modern sports Patek nowadays.

I would go with one of the followings:

1. AP RO 15500OR with full bracelet.

2. Rolex RG Daytona with full bracelet (116505).

3. VC OS 4500V RG.

Go with a 16618. 10-12 less than anything you’re looking at and probably more capable.

I recommend the 5990 rose gold. That blue dial is beautiful.

The Breguet Marine line is nice in rg, strap, rubber or bracelet:



The previous gen Marine is also lovely.

The 126715 is always a top choice, so is the ALS TZ.
