One more for the ladies: Pick your favorite!

Daytona_John · 03-17-2006, 02:02 PM

Alright gals (and any guys who want to throw in your .2), pick which of these is your favorite!

Which one would you most want to see on your guy?

The Sea-Dweller:

The Yacht-Master:

The Daytona

Or, last but certainly not least, the Submariner!

Nikki · 03-17-2006, 02:11 PM

I like the last one the best but it's not his style at all. I'd say The Daytona

BellasBmw · 03-17-2006, 02:15 PM

I like the yatch master

Well, there's not much difference in the retail price - $7100.0 for the Sub, vs. $6900.00 for the Daytona. BUT....The stainless steel Daytona is exceptionally hard to find at retail price - my Rolex dealers get 1-2 of these models a year at most and have long waiting lists for customers wanting them...subsequently it brings $10,000.00 plus on the secondary market...

...excellent taste my dear...I'm sure your beau would be thrilled with either...

magmd · 03-17-2006, 02:22 PM

It depends on your style. I like #1 and #2

If I had to pick only one, I would go for SD....I wear alot of dark colors nowadays, so would go nicely with black suits...etc. This is unusual for me, because I normally go for light color faces.

But, YM is also very elegant and would match just about anything.

I'm not surprised...it's the one of the most popular choices among younger, "hipper" buyers...I always wear it when I want to feel "kewl."

The platinum and stainless steel Yacht-master runs just shy of $8000.00, so you've picked the highest retail priced model of the four.

ESQUIRE magazine called the Rolex Sea-Dweller "The one watch every man should own." You're certainly right about the versatility of the watch.

But you'd be surprised at how nice that Daytona looks with a suit...

The YM looks great with a suit too.

magmd · 03-17-2006, 02:31 PM

"The one watch every man should own."

Damn! Now where am I going to fit this into my budget...LOL!

Well...the Daytona is very nice, but seems that it would be appreciated by more mature gentlemen...LOL! The young hip crowd would definitely go with the YM.

So...just get them all, and rotate them depending on your mood.

Nikki · 03-17-2006, 02:32 PM

I have like a $60 Citizen I got 2 years ago lol. It's pretty nice. hahaa

Well, you'll be happy to know it's the cheapest one in the group. Retail price just shy of $5000.00.

The Daytona an old guy's watch?!? No way man! :mad:

Rolex gives one away to the winner of the 24hrs. of Daytona race every year...it's always been a young, sporty watch.

Indeed...that's what I did!

You are all set then!

Nikki · 03-17-2006, 02:40 PM

For some reason I don't really like the Yacht-Master very much, I mean I am not saying it's bad or anything, but I wouldn't choose it over any of the others. I think it's the larger font numbers. I like things small and precise.

magmd · 03-17-2006, 02:42 PM

The Daytona an old guy's watch?!?

LOL! Not old guy....more mature guy.

I can't see it being the first pick of most under 35. But definitely a nice classy watch for those with a refined mature taste. Do not have to be old to be mature. (and just because you are old, does not mean you are mature either...LOL!)

Well...that is just the impression I get from the pics. I guess I would have to seem them all in person..on my wrist to really make the right decision!

deutschmann59 · 03-17-2006, 02:43 PM

Hey Daytona John, what do you think about the Stainless steel Datejust with oyster bracelet and blue face?

I've really been leaning toward this for a while now, but I know a lot of people say datejusts are just way too small. What do you think? Would that be a good watch to wear with a suit, but also a sporty look to wear with running pants and a tee-shirt?

N1 · 03-17-2006, 02:47 PM

Chronograph Daytona for sure!

GoRomeo · 03-17-2006, 02:49 PM

Nothing like "Cartier" for me...thanks

Citizen makes a darn fine, respectable watch. You should take a photo.

...just add a couple of zeros (6k) and you'd can trade up to what I bought gorgeous bride as a wedding gift a couple of months ago...
