So I am planning on adding one of the following to the collection… just not sure which:
1. GMT BLRO
2. GMT BLNR
3. Sea dweller
4. No date sub

According to my SA I should be able to get any of them pretty soon. I like all of the aforementioned watches pretty much equally. The sub has really grown on me over the last couple of months. I owned a sea dweller briefly and ended up giving it to a family member as a gift (I immediately regretted that move). The GMTs are pretty much a coin toss. I can never decide which of the two color combos I like more.

Current collection includes a 116520, 116500LN, 116610LV, and a 126334

You need a GMT for sure. If you cant decide between Pepsi or Batman, 116710LN can't go wrong.

28mm · 22 December 2021, 12:50 PM

Really nice collection..

Not sure which to suggest..what's your gut tell you?

Rollieo · 22 December 2021, 12:54 PM

GMT BLNR would round out your collection well. But why not look for something outside of Rolex? A nice dress piece from Patek or Lange?

Get a 15CHNR. You don't need another steel Oyster cased watch.

inadeje · 22 December 2021, 12:57 PM

If you can get any from your AD I’d get 1 or 2 in that order. It will bring some pastel color to your collection outside of the green sub.

A GMT of course, all others are redundant…or maybe another brand?

noshame · 22 December 2021, 01:29 PM

GMT on jubilee. Good luck, OP.

brandrea · 22 December 2021, 01:32 PM

I think a GMT would be a nice add. BLRO is my choice, the BLNR didn’t last for me

TimeAZ · 22 December 2021, 05:42 PM

BLRO and don't even think twice about it.

PS. How are you funding these on a resident's salary!? Well, however it is, god bless.

Koolpep · 22 December 2021, 06:19 PM

Another vote for a GMT!

Harry-57 · 22 December 2021, 06:40 PM

If that was my collection I would add a GMT. What you would do is up to you. If the GMT bezel is a coin toss, just get the one that turns up first. Presumably your AD/SA can give you a read on which they think will arrive sooner? Looking at it cynically, I'd go BLRO and if I didn't like it I could trade in for a BLNR with little or no financial hurt. But since I love the BLRO and don't particularly like the BLNR, I'd have the Pepsi anyway.

Little machines · 22 December 2021, 07:31 PM

Nice collection ! I would add the GMT BLRO . Good luck !

Societas · 22 December 2021, 08:15 PM

Yes, GMT would round it off nicely.

Maybe think outside of Rolex for next purchase after this one ?(Very hard, I know !)

Giangos · 22 December 2021, 08:53 PM

BLNR for me.
I love that watch.

GMT would give you a good range of styles.

dkg1616 · 22 December 2021, 09:42 PM

Skydweller for the win!

Awesome collection

Chester01 · 22 December 2021, 09:53 PM

I would diversify and look outside of Rolex at this point. It’s pretty well represented in your collection.

Bmats · 22 December 2021, 09:58 PM

I’d want a BLRO on jubilee out of the choices, but agree with the others that something different — like a Lange or Patek or VC would make sense; I’d do something on leather if you’d wear that. On the Rolex front, I’d also consider something rose gold on oysterflex as that’s totally different.

1William · 22 December 2021, 10:36 PM

BLRO on the Jubilee. A beautiful watch.

Seemed like BLRO would be most likely between the GMTs. Thanks for the input. Good points.

I would recommend the GMT, BLRO with jubilee. I think it would fit nicely and add a pop of color as well, along with a new complication.

karleone · 23 December 2021, 05:09 AM

Nice collection! A GMT for sure! Both are awesome but I personally prefer the BLRO.
