If you could only have one watch,
and one watch only from this point forward, what would it be ( No back-ups while your one and only is being serviced)? I would suspect that most folks here have more than one watch ( can be any brand), so it is not the piece you would want, rather one of the pieces you currently own which you would have to rely on for the rest of your life. Understand that this piece would have to be dependable, reliable, and servicing are all factors to consider.
So, what would it be?

Sorry but too difficult...Like choosing which child :)
It Would be one of these though..... A watch for most occasions....... Good question as I have often wondered the same.... BTW what about you???? And most likely one of the ones on the top row.....( I do love my Rolex daytona's though) Regards M....
I guess if I had a gun to my head and I was on a desert Island.....
It would be my 5960p so I could keep track of the days.. But otherwise way too difficult.... M.
I know it's tough,
I have a hard enough time picking out a watch I want to wear each day and by the looks of your watches, I'd never get out of the house. But if I could only have one that had to meet the criteria, I think it would be a Rolex of some type. I have a Patek br...
Love your Pateks Miles
those other though should become more Pateks! -- Cheers from Richard.
cant figure out.
Hi everyone, sorry for the awkward question, i cant really make out the third watch (gold case, brown strap perpetual). May i know what it is? Thanks
Well, if I could only have one watch...
... and 'that this piece would have to be dependable, reliable, and servicing are all factors to consider', I'd choose one of my solar G-Shocks over the rest.
5074...
If I crash landed in an airplane and was stuck in a deserted island without running water and electricity, at least I'd be able to tell what the time is at night and not have to maintain a calendar. Thus, I would need a perpetual calender minute repeater ...
3940R is good enough for me
The feel is not quite solid as big pieces like 5960, 5970. It's therefore easier to wear (gonna to wear it every day). It's rose gold so it's eye-catching, yet warm and elegant, fit for all occasions. It's a perpetual calendar, so it's very useful. I have...
Good choice !
Wasn't aware of that model, looks like a good choice. I love my 5711G but it's pretty weighty.
If I had the money.
It would be the Seiko Spring Drive Sonnerie, But What I do have sorry it ain't a Rolex, or Patek ect LOL. Is this Seiko Monster....
My wife asked me the same question........
My wife asked me the same question and I couldn't answer. The best I could do is have a top 3.
If non patek.....
it will definitely be Dufour Simplicity. If it must be a Patek, it can be either 5970 (any combo), 5078P (White Dial) or 5101P.....either one of it will be perfectly fine. *CL
How about the RM009
The case is almost scratch proof. It is super light. And it is water resistant 50m. Not to mention the beautiful hand wound movement. If it has to be a Patek, my favorite is the 5078P enamel dial.
I would have to go with a quartz I think
I know crazy, my Tag Aqua Racer beater is VERY reliable. Not my fav but has a Chrono and can get wet all day long.
