If you could purchase only 4 watches from Rolex and Omega in your entire life and you had to purchase them new TODAY at an AD with a total budget of $30,000. Let’s pretend everything was available at MSRP.

What would you pick (be careful not to go over budget)?

Here is my selection:


Total: $28,750

 

Pepsi GMT 2 - $9,700
Polar E2 - $8,350
All blue Semaster (bracelet) 300m - $5,200
Standard Speedy - $5,350

Total: $28,600 USD

 

Rolex Oyster Perpetual white dial 39: $5,700
Rolex Submariner Date black dial: $8,950
Omega Seamaster 300 Master Co-axial: $6,800
Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch: $5,350

Total: $26,800

 

EDITED - to follow the rules

OK, I'll play. I prefer vintage watches, so this was a challenge. The DeVille is for the wife, can't leave her out (even if she is not that into watches).



Total: $29,700

 

I would go with these:

Rolex Explorer II (Polar) - $8,350


Rolex Sub - $7,900


Omega Globemaster (Blue) - $7,200



And an Omega Speedmaster (I would have enough to get either the Hesalite or the Sapphire Sandwich) - $5,350 - $6,350



Grand Total: $28,800 - $29,800

PS. While working this list, the Ed White price was not available in my region... I would possibly rework the list to accommodate that speedy.

 

It says Rolex or Omega only...

 

I have edited the post to follow the rules.

 

No one for a stainless Daytona???

 

I would get a black and a white Daytona and the rest would be filler.

 

I'd go for a pepsi, a panda daytona, an AT 41 with a blue dial and a filler

 

Patek 3919G - $8,000
Rolex 16710 Pepsi - $11,500
Omega Seamaster Blue Ceramic 210.32.42.20.03.001 - $4,900
Zenith Defy Black 49.9000.670/77.r782 - $6,600

 

1966 Vintage Rolex Submariner 5513 Gilt Tropical Dial $27,550

and three Inviticas https://invictastores.com/men/invic...plastic-case-silver-gunmetal-dial-model-31562

 

I am with you on that, but the rules of the game were Rolex or Omega only and they have new current models.

 

Or

6X the soon to be retired 1861

 

This is the correct answer.

 

Milgauss GV
New Bond Seamaster
GMT Master II
Standard speedy if any funds are left over

 

Absolutely the only modern watches from either brand I would really want to own. It looks like the Globemaster is $6,900 and the price of the Milgauss is $8,300.

 

Ok 3 of these Rolex watches.

Throw them in the garbage and then this specimen 1966 Vintage Rolex Submariner 5513 Gilt Tropical Dial $27,550. Gotta follow the rules for the theoretical group of 4

 

Selecting from the contemporary Rolex and Omega catalogues, I would go all Omega!

Speedmaster Calibre 321: $14100
Omega Deville Tresor: $6500
Diver 300M 007 Edition: $9200
TOTAL: $29800

 

were i can get an ultraman for 7100 dollars??
