Stunning trio!!

Well, you could add a chronograph (6263), an Explorer (I or II), and/or a DJ as a dress watch, but those three are awesome as is. Congrats!

Funny but I'm in exactly the same predicament. I have three watches (not quite as nice as yours). DRSD mk4, 1675 Mk1 and a 5513 maxi mk1.
I sold my Daytona 6263 and a 1655 long ago as I found they wore small and the dials were too 'busy' for me.
Was thinking maybe a 16550 or a 1019. Still not sure though. Will be interested to hear some of the suggestions to your question

I suggest re-visiting a Big Red Daytona. I had a black-dial version several years ago that I also found too small and delicate, so I sold it. But then I tried again earlier this year with a cream/silver dial version, and now I don't know what the heck I was thinking. It's a perfect size for a vintage piece. It's not a dive watch, of course, so it'll look small compared to your SD or even a Sub. But it's not supposed to be big, just cool and beautiful.

Yes!

In all fairness I did not read this email. I am an Enabler so I always say YES to this question.

That is one hell of a compelling reason to get a Daytona...no matter how good the collection is heh. Nice Swish77.
