Where's the link to the JLC? That black and gold Rolex is quite the bomb. I don't like it so much in all SS. On the other hand, I've always wanted a UN. If the money was all about the same, I think I'd go with that just to be different. But I will withhold final judgement until I see the JLC.

Man, they're all great watches, but if I had to choose, I'd go with UN too. The Maxi Marine is a beautiful watch!

My vote's for Rolex....I prefer an "elegant tool watch' to "frou-frou-foppish" tool watch.

I'd go for the Nardin. Just a bit different. Of course, you can't lose with any of those possibilities!

Will this be for diving purposes? Because if so, man, that J-LC Compressor is one serious piece of machinery!!! I, personally, like the UN better simply because I'm not a big fan of rubber-covered buttons. And the J-LC Calendar seems to fit a wider life-style range. But I don't dive, either, so I'm speaking aesthetics only.

JLC master Compressor for sure! I think the styling and color is awesome and the sub-dials are great too. The Ulysee is just too much in your face, and the Rol's is just another Rol's I see them very often. But that Master Compressor I don't see very often. I also like the Leather band version as well as the Stainless.

it's their nicest model imo. Will probably hold it's value best. I'm not a fan of either JLC. The UN is nice but I still prefer the Rollie.
