Next watch?

Hi all, pretty new to this forum - used to spend a good bit of time on TZ back in the day but this place seems way more active so I was happy to stumble upon it! Like many others I started with Rolex, moved heavily into Panerai and am now moving more and more into AP. Here's my current lineup:

(previously had a Safari years back but found it way too uncomfortable for my wrist).

Currently tossing around the idea getting the RG RC, RG ROO 44mm, FC ROO or tracking down an End of Days I wouldn't worry about wearing daily. I'd get rid of one of the APs above to keep it to three watches in the rotation. Any thoughts?

Hope everyone's having a great holiday weekend here in the US!

Get the RG ROO 44mm. Hide the 8-days somewhere you don't see it so you still have 3 pieces in rotation without having to get rid any one of them.
Nice collection!

Id sell the PAM, just hate to see those APs go and Id get the RG 44mm if your wrists can take it otherwise the 42mm.

Ditch the PAM, pickup a 372 and add the 44 rgroo. Or the 44 FC instead of the rg to keep the cost down, but I suspect that you may want to have one gold piece.

Lovely 289! Get a FC ROO for some variety.

If the RG ROO is comfortable, that would be my choice

I'd say go for a 44 forged carbon!!!

I just picked up a rosé gold 44 however and must say. It's amazing

A tough call letting any of them go, but if pushed, and as much of a beautiful watch as it is, the Pam would be out and a ROO 44 in. The thing is the Pam gives a nice bit of variety, but with the AP's you currently have flanking it, it wouldn't get much wrist time from me,I don't know- keep them all!!

Lol - eternally a salesman. BTW, I think that Pam is pretty cool. If you sell it PM me first.
