If I were you....
I would move the 5167, your collection would be perfect without it.
If I were to add something, it would be in RG? Unless you don't like the metal. Either Journe or Lange.

State of the collection (updated family pic)

Ok, sorry the delay. Updating the thread as obviously there’s been a lot of action. I’m going to TRY to leave the last spot in my box open for a bit and really consider what should go there. So here is the collection for now. For the first time in a while I have no Rolex for no other reason than I just wasn’t wearing them.

I’m interested in opinions for the last spot. Maybe a vintage Rolex, maybe something funky like a Moser, maybe another Patek (lol)…

Patek 5167a
Patek 5164a
Patek 5960g
Patek 5320g
Patek 5711/1a
Patek 5712/1a
Patek 5712r
Patek 5270p
Glasshütte SeaQ
Omega Seamaster 300
Omega Speedmaster 321 Ed White
Patek 6007a
Laurent Ferrier Classic Origin
FP Journe QP
FO Journe CO

The CO is a one-second remontoire! In reality, I strongly prefer white metals. Maybe should have kept it but collecting is a journey…

Wow! This update has so many changes that my eyes are spinning. And the collection grew from 9 to 15! This is going to take some time to digest.

That is amazing, well done!

How about a Vacheron Constantin?

I ordered an overseas chronograph yesterday. It was stunning on my wrist, I can’t wait to add it to my rotation.

Okay, some questions for you:

1) Which perpetual calendar is your favorite? How would you rank them?
2) I like the Glashutte. Is that your purposeful alternative to having a Sub?
3) Do both 5712’s get equal wrist time?
4) What’s that design on the dial of your 5960? Or is that a reflection?
5) How would you rank your top five?

1) 5270, QP, 5320. But all are awesome. Calendar complications are my favorite and these three are tops.
2) Yes sort of. I just wanted some brand diversity and I really love the size of this one. It crushes on the NATO
3) I probably wear the r more - it’s turned in to my “out to dinner” watch. I prefer the 5711/1a to the 5712/1a as a “daily.”
4) Haha. That’s a reflection of the light fixture in my living room.
5) 5711, 5270, CO, 5164, QP. At least those are what I’d probably choose if I could only keep five.

Your current collection is superb as is every iteration along the way. I suspect you may continue to change and please keep sharing pics.

Unbelievable collection. This is the first collection I have seen in which all of the watches are set to the same time! Just curious, do you wind them daily, are they all on winders, or were they set for the photo?
