I agree with the Exp 2 option based on your current lineup.

I suggest adding some color to your selection. You have a slight hue of blue (mind you, a beauty at that), but all your dials are black. The LV would be my choice, but I am biased.

To be honest, you can not go wrong with anything. But I would bring some color into the game.
Take the Explorer 2 with the white dial. With the rest of the money make great holidays.

Pretty simple- flip the old Daytona for the new Daytona. You listed it first, subconsciously it must mean the most to you, and it's now outdated.

Half the fun is having something that no one else has, and this buzz of exclusivity will last for several years. The rest of the choices on your list are not hard to find, you can get them whenever you want.

Depending upon what you pick, you may have a long wait unless you are willing to pay a premium and go grey market or have an excellent relationship at an AD. Any of your choices would be a great addition to your collection to add color.

You already have a very solid collection. So, with that...I guess I would look at it like with this addition you're going to "emphasize" one sporty aspect...such as diving, GMT function, or chronograph. At that point, you just need to figure out which function is most important to you.

If you go diver, you do have to decide between the LV and the D-Blue...I think I would go with the D-Blue if you are OK with wearing a massive watch. Actually, if going this route, I would throw the new SD into the mix as well.
