Stephane Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 Would be a very difficult situation ! My 16600
m4rcus Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 Would be a very difficult situation ! Agreed, definitely a difficult choice...but currently I'd have to go with my sub... Please ignore the pizza sauce stain on the bezel at 11.
Pugwash Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 It'd be hard. I'd need something with a chrono and possibly a bezel. Luckily for me, my latest watch fits the bill. However I have been giving the perfect daily wear watch some thought and I may have come to the conclusion that that watch is one I've never owned: The 42mm Planet Ocean. I'll have to buy one to see if this is true. If either a Perfect Sub or SD existed, they too could fit the bill.
stac Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 My newly modded 1665 MBW without a doubt...

I'll have to buy one to see if this is true. If either a Perfect Sub or SD existed, they too could fit the bill. Oh no!!!! After months of waiting and pure patience-agony... you are saying that after a few weeks you're ready and done with it??? But ot be quite honest... i still can't forget my SD which i had to sell a half a year ago. And this is what i want again... a SD .. or a 42mm PO. Good choice Pug But for now it's my fully modded 1665!!
Chrischy Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) Easy...My GEN Chronomat And for REP Edited January 19, 2008 by Chrischy
Raijor Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 My IWC St Exupery would be the one even though it is rose gold. This is the watch I always grab when I am having difficulty choosing a watch to wear. I have become accustomed to having it around just like my favorite hat and boots. They would have to come with me on that trip too.
mezzanine Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 It would come down to a show-down between these two watches: ...and in the end, after a length drumroll....... The winner would be....!
Dizzy Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 If i had to choose only one... Rolex 16610 Submariner... T serial 1995 model with SEL's and lugs holes!
hiker01 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 It has to be my GEN SUB TT......it has class, character and had stood the test of time:
scoobs1971 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 Without doubt my gen Lorenz Theatro. Very versatile. Always looking good from formal to casual. And it has a chronograph. Good second choice would be Angus's PAM111e:
Pugwash Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 Oh no!!!! After months of waiting and pure patience-agony... you are saying that after a few weeks you're ready and done with it??? Absolutely not! The 3719 is still amazing. I'll be getting the ETA wheels and K2222 AR on it soon.
its_urabus Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 hikeusa, i dont need a watch, ill just take your avatar with me for the rest of my life... how gives a crap what time it is if you have that...
takashi Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 tried and tested... It has crossed Arctic Circle, frequents sauna and hot tubs as well as that 50m dash on a swimming pool and has withstand the height of Boeing 777's long haul flight cruise altitude. It would be this piece:
predfan2001 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) Of course mine would be my franken Rolex 5513 Submariner rep. As for 5513s, I like this pic (remember the story about the fisherman loosing this one on his boat and finding many years later) Here's mine: Edited January 20, 2008 by predfan2001
Victoria Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 NAME THAT LADY ?? Good question. And the answer is my Davidsen PAM 112.
dluddy Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 Only ONE.....Oh, the horror Tough choice but probably my Omega SMP
hwrd Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 No doubt the PO 42 mm. Steady and reliable throughout 2007. When it comes to dependable --this is it.
its_urabus Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 dluddy, of everything you own? really?
tankster Posted January 19, 2008 Report Posted January 19, 2008 I wouldn't take a rep at all - it'd be my trusty Wenger. With due respect to their origins, all of my reps have demonstrated idiosyncrasies, none of which I'd want on the long trip you describe
