My question is, for the one watch guys, do you have a progression in mind?

For me, my only watch right now is a 16610, next watch on my mind (that I'll trade my 16610 for) is a 116613, and then after owning that for a while, I'd like to own a solid gold Rolex and trade in the 116613 (model TBD).
I'd stick with the 16610 long term. You can still talk and read about the wonders of mechanical watches without becoming a collector.

p.s. fwiw, I personally have no interest in gold sports watches.
