Look for a Panerai Radiomir instead. It's a more watch guy type style, unmistakable though.

Not really my style, but I don't try to get noticed by my watches either. Just saying, bang for buck a Panerai is better money spent if you want someone to look at your watch.



If you do get a used Rolex you absolutely should get a Submariner.

Really the only one WAF.

I will never own a Panerai. I don't like how they look. I've never owned a Rolex either even though I do like them.

I was thinking about that reading this thread. I have not worn a watch since high school. I've got a cell phone. Obviously young professionals don't wear a watch nearly as much as people as old as Broke.

That Submariner 14060 is the quintessential Rolex. Expect to pay between $4 and $5k for a good used one with box and papers. If you ever have to sell it you'll probably get all your money back. Going a little down market, the Explorer I is worth a look.



This is the most simple and versatile watch Rolex makes - it's also one of the cheapest. A used one can be found between $3 and $4k in great condition. It fits all the OP's check marks of being able to be worn with a suit, and it says "Rolex" pretty big on the dial.

I'm saving up for this: The GMT Master II with the new black/blue bezel:


I'll be saving for a while.
