Poll: Help me decide - Which Rolex?

Gibbo · 13 Sep 2007 at 08:54

Hi there

OK I like all of the three Rolex watches attached, but unlike Rotty I can't go buying all three and have got too decide on one. I've already pretty much decided which one I am going for but as always I am interested in other peoples oppinion too though I doubt it will sway my decision.

Now forgetting how much these cost which one would people here go for, it will be a watch I wear daily and I am sure it will feel great putting my own Rolex on each morning. I like the silver submariner simply because it does not scream oooh look at my watch, its just a very nice well engineered bit of kit.

However then I also like the Submariner TT because it does look a little more flash as does the GMT2 as well.

I am not interested in all GOLD Rolex due too two reasons and the first is they cost a lot more money and secondly they are more dress evening wear than something thats gonna be on my arm at all times apart from when I am sleeping and no doubt cleaning my car.

Some pictures:-

1. Submariner

2. Submariner TT

3. GMT Master 2

Let the voting commence

Don't like TT watches at all, not a daily watch anyway.

As for Rolex, not a fan as such. Do love the Daytona...

If I was going for one it would be the standard sub or a sea-dweller.

The submariner, as its not in your face, or tacky. Gold is tacky, and the blue would be impractical for day-to-day wear with any outfit.

If it were me, it'd have to be the Submariner.

I've never liked that gold/copper colour - IMO, it cheapens the item.

The TT I think looks pretty garish... ewwww.
The submariner I think is too understated.
GMT Master seems like the better watch too.

The Submariner for me. Nice and simple (if you can have a simple Rolex) not in your face, nice neutral design. Can be worn with any outfit..

Rotty · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:16

thats not a good pic of the TT sub

gjrc · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:17

the first tbh, the others i dont like at all.

Trojan · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:19

Out of those I'd go for the TT. Not a fan of the black and gold of the GMT, and the Submariner looks too plain for the price tag.

They all look so eighties to me, Gordy, Tacky & weirdly Cheap looking.
Out of the three the first Submariner is the better looking watch, Straight & functional

G18241 · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:33

i know nothing about fancy watchesl but the first one looks thie nicest

melbourne720 · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:47

I would go for the GMT Master 2, as I have an all black and silver watch already. Next the Submariner, then the Submariner TT.

They're all nice though, has Rotty found you a cheap(er) place to source them from?

Jono · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:47

They're all vile, but out of the 3, the Submariner...actually that's not vile at all, but the other two are.

aardvark · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:55

i wouldn't buy one but the submariner is the clear winner - i wouldn't be seen dead wearing the two pieces of tacky crap.

Youstolemyname · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:56

Go for the first sub. I am

Johnz0r · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:58

First one. Other two are vile.

G-MAN2004 · 13 Sep 2007 at 09:59

Has to be the first one.

Dr House · 13 Sep 2007 at 10:00

errr there is something missing on your list, the new SS GMT. You really have to have a look at it in real life, amazing!

Biohazard · 13 Sep 2007 at 10:01

My uncle has an uber amount of rolex's, but I think gold ones look well naff.

Submariner for me.. how much are they out of interest?

SNIP

Can I ask why ask people to vote but say that? Seems a bit daft imo.
