Looking for that third watch...5980, hulk and ?
Hello Everyone,
I have this same thread up on the general rolex page... I have a 5980/1a and a LV. I don't really wear suits so that rules out dress watches...I don't really like AP... What would you add as a third watch? |

A 5740 will be a great addition.

There's a wide option for this personally I'd get a gold piece but if you're not into gold I think 5960 is pretty interesting not being another nautilus. 5164 would also be a great addition. If you want another brand the new generation vc in bluedial is awesome too

Another vote for the 5164...adds a different dial color, a different complication, and different band material

If I had what you currently have, I'd add a 5164.

5164R or a PM daytona on OF
I would add one sports watch in PM, but on rubber........ which means a YM, Daytona, or Aquanaut |

Are you against pre-owned? How open minded are you? Posting this same thread in this section is only likely to get you the usual Patek nominations, unless that’s exactly what you were aiming for? |

You have a chrono and a diver. If you're going the complication route perhaps either a GMT, a World Timer, or a calendar function (Annual or perpetual). You already have steel so you could consider precious metal.

You don't need to wear a suit to rock a dress watch, @watchrookie on instagram knows the score

Something on Rubber?
Daytona Oysterflex 5167 VC Overseas DJ41 on Jubilee Something different than what you have, don't fall in the trap of adding a variant of the Hulk (so many on the Rolex collection are just the same watch with a slight change)

5164r/a would be cool with what you already have. I really like the hulk the more I see it.

100% agree... I don’t need a collection of the Batman, hulk, S43 etc... I’ll take the hulk, 5980 and maybe something PM on rubber. Dunno, it’s hard to decide.
