I have 4 watches in mind, I want to pick one:

- Rolex explorer 36 from VSF

- Rolex explorer 2 polar from ARF

- Rolex pepsi on Jubilee from VSF

- Rolex sub no date from VSF

I tried some other watches at my local Rolex AD for size reference.

Sub felt a the most “chunky”. Coke felt really nice, but I’m worried that Pepsi will draw some attention if I wear to the office every day, and I’m worried it will be slightly heavy for everyday (?)

Explorer 2 is nice especially in polar, but the reps are not as good as the other models.

I was excited about Explorer 36 but was really underwhelmed when i tried it on. Nothing special i didn’t even take a wrist pick. But i know it’s the most rational decision for everyday as a first watch, and that it can grow on me.

What do you advise ?
