This right here is Rolex nirvana for me, particularly that YG DD40 w/ silver diagonal motif dial. One day I will have the DD40, and I’ll probably change my mind a million times on metal/dial combo between now and then, but if I had to choose right now, this one would be it. Wear in good health.

Platinum Daytona or DD for me. Although I have been thinking about the Smurf for some time. Now that they’re discontinued, the price may just go up.

YG Submariner Date with black bezel. It'd be my one watch.

I am fortunate to be able to buy or trade for most any watch I want at any price point below 200k. My grail now is the watch I currently want to wear and enjoy. Spending a lot of time with Seiko right now but still enjoy my 12 Rolex watches. I only have one PM piece right now, YG Sky-Dweller, and am pleased with my collection. No more grail watches, only watches I enjoy.
Wow sounds like you have well and truly scratched that itch. Must have been some journey

I found it 2 years ago! The SD43

Now in a parallel world, if we talk about a fantasy, a Patek Philippe Minute Repeater and perpetual calendar Ref: 5074P, it would be beautiful.
