What is your "everyday" Rolex?
To carry on a theme from Kari, what is your everyday Rolex? I think Bill and I both err towards the Sea-Dweller 16660, a watch that spans between vintage and modern. Tough, reliable and every inch a Rolex. I am guessing that much depends join whether one ...
I alternate
between a tritium 16600 and a white dial 116400 because after one week of ownership, a brand new Tudor 25500's crown broke cleanly off the stem during a date change.
No pictures.
But you should know what it looks like when the crown comes off the stem when you attempt to put the crown at the time setting position
Why not with a suit? I tried it, it worked quite nicely.
Now, as for my everyday Rolex... Well, most of them I can wear on an everyday basis. I spent 15 days ( !!!) with the 6542! Best, Nicolas
My only Rolex ... GMT aka 'Batman'
Another lovely VR from you, Joe. I'm moving into VR world well and truly, and would love to get a ref 16660 one day. Any sound advice would be greatly appreciated. One thing for sure, " Always buy the seller ". Cheers, Ken ...
We share a passion for this GMT......
.....try a 16660 on the wrist......a very different feel to it
That's easy. My 16600!
I wear that watch every day and everywhere. Surfing, swimming, the office, dinner, mass, etc. You name it, it is on my wrist. No better Rolex, IMHO. -Mike
Daytona
For the every day use I will go with the Rolex Daytona: Elegant, sporty and simple!
Hello Joe! May I join the thread with my present everyday Rolex?...
... Though I like to switch my everyday watch a few times each week, one of my most used Rolex is also a "transitional" Submariner, a model 5513 last series (this one was made in 1986) which reunites features from both old and new versions of the inmortal...
a lovely mix between vintage and modern.....
.....I think so many on this forum love the vintage play but recognise that a watch that is 30yrs old carries some collateral damage risk. Finding a perfect mix between vintage and modern is a nice theme....and your 5513 hits that spot perfectly. Let me a...
Thank you for your comments Joe! Completely agree with you...
... about our appreciation of true vintage and other watches which are in the edge of being so considered. Patina is more evident in vintage watches with no circled indexes of course, so it is worth to appreciate a circled one like this when such a patina...
Thank you Nicolas! Glad you like it! I´m not a fan either of...
... WG circled indexes in my Rolex, but this one I was hooked by the patina in these indexes and the general confition (almost unworn) of this watch. Incidentally, I bought it together with a "cousin" made in same year of 1986 which I feel you´ll like too...
Indeed. I still have to find a nice 16750 / 760... Very nice!
It is all about the patina of the dial and or indexes... Un abrazo, amigo. Nicolas
Thank you my dear friend Hs! I´m glad you approve my ...
... 5513 selection!. Agree with you that is some kind of "Best of both Worlds" combination! Have a nice week end my friend! All the best, Abel.
I rotate my watches, but if I have to choose my everyday Rolex..
It would be the Green Submariner. Best regards, Baxter
GMT Master
the perfect modern tool watch IMO It's also great for doing nothing ;-) ...
A very mundane Sub LV
The pun here is in mundane: which is profane in English but the nearly same sounding and looking German word "mondän" means glamorous. It depends on when and where you wear a Sub LV to call it mundane, I suppose. Regarding the Sea Dweller: the old one was...
Another day with my....
16710. IMO, it is versatile. Does not look out of place with a suit and easily blend with a pair of jeans. Cheers, SF ...
Rolex 16750 circle index with patina
This is a very nice combination to have. Old world patina. Bill ...
I don't have a lot of Rolexes to go with, and I don't really have an everyday watch
but if I had to pick one, it would be this 16570. ...
My everyday Rolex is the BLNR
I cannot think of a more versatile watch. I love the GMT because it is thinner than the Sub. Its horns are also thinner. I love the GMT because it is a cool complication. I love the GMT because i like to know the time in Paris and in Vancouver. I love the...
