The perfect rotation

I only have two watches right now, a 5513 Submariner and my GMT Master.

I want to find my next watch to be a 1016 Explorer.

Two watches that I released in the past, a Speedmaster Pro and a 1501 Date I will eventually recapture although I don't know if I will be lucky enough to get a good deal on another pre-moon.

Another Omega I'd like to put into this rotation is a SM 300.

Finally the last 2 necessary would be a 1680 and a 6239 Daytona or Pre

So for me a perfect rotation would be: 5513, 6542, 1016, 1680, Speedmaster, 6239, SM300.

My ideal collection is having just one of anything I like, but the best one that I can find. I understand a true collector wanting to have variations of different models but it doesn't interest me enough, not to say that I wouldn't.....

On the list for now for work/suit rotation:
White dial Day Date 1803 or 18038. Want hidden clasp bracelet, but don't like small Romans on the 18038 stick dials. Conflicted.

Blue Dial Heuer Monaco

For weekend casual wear:
French Heuer fume dial
Heuer Montreal - white or blue

BLNR, 5711, and soon a 1680 white.
I love the idea of pairing the BLNR and 1680 white.
Both my fav in modern and vintage SS line up. (Which I can afford)! :)
