Suggestion On my next watch
Currently, I owned 3 Rolex and 2 Omega in my collections. I am wondering what will be next to compliment my existing watch portfolio. I am not a gold person; hence all my watches are in stainless steel. I like to be on a low profile.
Rolex Daytona 116500LN White Dial Rolex GMT Master 2 Pepsi 126710BLRO Rolex GMT Master 2 Batman 126710BLNR Omega Speedy Tuesday Ultraman Omega Apollo 13 50th Anniversary Snoopy Edition All suggestions are welcome. |

Nothing, you are doing fine. If you must add, maybe something green or orange for secondary colors since you already have red and blue for primary colors.

Maybe a bit of variety, or a diver, or just enjoy what you already have?

There's no dive watch in there so you could look at a sub, I'd go no date with your current collection.
However, if you want to diversify I always think a collection deserves a Cartier Santos. Lots of German brands to look at as well. Then there's the dials on the grand Seiko range, especially the snowflake. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk |

I would add a rectangular dress watch - maybe the Cartier Tank Solo (huge fan given how beautiful the opaline dial is / how thin it is compared to Reverso, etc.)

DJ36/41 blue fluted batons on a jubilee. I would add something a little dressier to round things out a little bit.

Try to get the new LV with black dial and green bezel. The Hulk looks black half of the time anyway and definitely don’t pay the insane price for one. New LV also gets you 70 hours of PR. |

Thats an awesome collection you have going. Maybe a Omege Planet Ocean Deep Black in the red and black or maybe the black and orange.

Since you asked, I'd sell the BLNR and the Snoopy, which seem somewhat redundant, and bring in either a Royal Oak or a dress watch from VC, PP or ALS.

Blue face sky dweller. That would be my choice if I had your collection.

Collection looks solid. Time to add a Sub.

Unpopular opinion, but the Sub and GMT are pretty much the same watch. Id have a look at JLC.

How about a Patek 5524G? It's white gold but it flies under the radar and different than anything you have.
BTW, I'd also trade one of the GMTs for a Sub LV. I'm assuming both GMTs you have are jubilee and I feel they are a tad redundant.

You have a collection of complications so perhaps a simple date only or date and time only piece with a differing aesthetic (ex: Oyster Perpetual, Datejust)

I second the DJ 36 suggestion. Earlier this year I bought apreviously owned DJ 36 Turn-O-Graph and love it. It's a great combination of a dressy watch with a sporty flair. It's a shame Rolex quit making them.

Great collection of new(Er) watches! If it were me, I would go older to compliment the new:
16760 Sophia Loren or the later 16710 1655 explorer 2 mark 1 or 3 would also be killer. Even the later explorer with a creamy white dial. Good luck in your search. Lots of great suggestions here! |
