What's Next?
I have a PP 5167 and Rolex BLNR. I love both and feel they compliment each other well. What watch would you recommend I get next to go with this "collection?"
I am in my late 20s, I don't consider myself very flashy, and I don't have much use for a dress watch. A vintage rolex appeals to me, but very open to any and all suggestions. Looking to spend $10k-ish, maybe a little less. Thanks in advance! |

An Explorer (1 or 2) gets my vote

Definitely agree with the Exp 1. Not flashy, under the radar, pretty much can dress up or down with it. Get whatever your heart desires and wear it in good health!

I'd say a 114060 - the non-date Sub is a classic!

reverso or panerai. i think you've got one of the best rolex sports SS models, so, branch out.

I like the idea of you going with a white dial. A SS Daytona? A bit more than 10k on the market here but not much. If 10k is tops and less is really the move, an Explorer would work. Even the 42mm would be your big watch.

If Rolex, white dial Daytona.
I personally try to do one per brand. I would go with maybe a Speedmaster, or a Royal Oak. |

A 5513 if you are feeling like a vintage piece or as mentioned Panerai. AP would be outside your budget but could be worth considering as it would fit in and make a nice trio.

Why buy a "next" unless there's something out there that you can't live without? Take your time and look around...you've got two great watches, enjoy them and let the next come to you...if it does.

Triple 6 Sea Dweller. Vintage, but not too vintage and different from what you currently have.

polar exp II 16570 is a nice under the radar (non flashy) watch, i just bought one a couple weeks ago for myself but it wears a little smaller than i thought it would and i have it listed here on the forum for sale now , they are a great bargain in the used rolex market right now and can be had in excellent condition under 4k which leaves some spending money for another watch essentially adding 2 for your 10k ish budget . i have an 8" wrist and it wears a little smaller than i like but on a 7" ish wrist they look great !
