What would do if you won a dive watch?
Let's pretend you won a raffle. Your prize is a new dive watch. Cool right. Now you have to pick your prize. You have to pick one of these 4 models. The Rolex Submariner, the GO SeaQ, the JLC Polaris or the Omega SeaMaster. You need to pick the color black, blue, green or white. What combination would you pick? After you pick it. It's yours. You can do whatever you want with it, wear it, sell it, give it away it's up to you. What would you do?

I’m not really a Rolex guy (not a hater either) but you really can’t beat the Submariner.
Pick the most expensive one and sell it immediately.
Easy one - I have a soft spot for GO. I'd have this one:
PS: and keep & wear it!
Sub.
What he said 👆
GO 😍
Pick whichever has the highest resell value at the time between the Sub date and the Polaris. Sell it brand new, buy the white SMP300 with the money and pocket the $4-$6k extra for another watch or another hobby. 😜💸
I would have to be boring and pick the sub to be honest I really like the look of them they are stlye icon
Probably my only chance to get a Submariner. I could always trade for another watch at a later date.
Sub (but lose the date)
It’d be a more interesting question if you couldn’t sell it and had to wear it regularly. the way you’ve phrased the question, the answer for most people is whatever will net the, the most return when they sell it.
I have a friend who wasn’t into watches. After years of hearing my rambling, he asked me which of a handful of Fossils from the mall kiosk was the best? I said none and sold him a Chinese NH sapphire yadda for pennies on the dollar.
Since I started Third Watch he’s said if I ever get a chance to get a dirt cheap SeaMaster that’s the only other watch he ever wants.

A Sub it is then.

Me too. I'm going to have one and soon.
GO 😍
GO is my choice.

If I couldn’t sell it, which I agree is the real question, I would go for the Glashutte in blue on a bracelet.

And if you don't like it, you can sell it for a lot more than the others! 😂
Sub in green please, the 3 others are really great, but the Rolex is so damn iconic.

Great choice. I like the add color.
White is good. It goes with everything. It's super versatile. Orange is more playful. If I was to do orange it would be with a black strap. I'd wear it to SF Giants games to represent.
Jaeger-LeCoultre if i'm not allowed to sell the watch. The brand is on another level compared to the other ones. Also, it's such a versatile watch.
Get the Polaris, sell it. Use that money to buy the other 3.

Cool. 3 for 1
The Submariner is iconic. There really is no other choice.
Lol you can tell everyone voted sub to flip it immediately 😂
Easy Sub. Sell it. I'm not going to say anything except the truth that everyone else is thinking🤣🤣

Whatever makes you happy. I'm not really looking for a Sub. But if one came my way I wouldn't turn it down. I have the Omega and the GO. I'm thinking about getting the JLC. The Sub could be my way.
If all these were placed on the table for me to purchase, my head would tell me to go for the Submariner (a relatively sensible choice imo).
However given it's free, I would go for the JLC.

I hear you. I'm not a big Sub fan but if I was offered a free one I'd take it too.
