Which should be the 4.watch in the collection??

Hello my friends,

When you have 3 great watches in your collection which would you put to this 3?
5170P : great platinum manuell winding chronograph
5740G : best Nautilus in white gold, with the new clasp and PP calendar
116606 : Platinum Daytona ist the most beautiful Rolex with 280g, Sports watch

Nr.4??
xxxxxxx : should be in precious metall, should have a good clasp (no clasp like the 5711) should not have a RG or YG bracelet, should be not another Nautilus or Daytona....something in white gold platinum would be great!!
What would you put to this 3??

Very nice 3 watch collection, you got a lot of the bases covered with these.

Within your constraints, I would perhaps add a white gold BLRO, or if you fancy something more dressy a 5196P/G. Perhaps you could also consider something less mainstream (and rarer) like an Urban Jürgensen 1140 or a FP Journe Chronomètre Bleu.

But are you sure your collection doesn't need a SS beater? Like a no-date Sub?

I’d go with either of these two. Maybe even a 5524.

The 5131P is a great watch but the clasp is the same as a 5711 so we have a problem.
I only like 100% watches with no compromise.

I don't really understand your question. You own those 3 or are thinking about them.

I will own this in near future but i want to have 4 great individual watches .
The problem is, which one would make the race when you have a 5170P,5740G and a 116506 in your current collection.
Thats not so easy....

I would consider

5970G or P

That should round things out quite nicely.

Great collection BTW!

Congratulations

Too bad. That's what I was thinking. You clearly like platinum and blue dials (as I do). TBH, you have a fantastic trio and I can't imagine what I'd want to wear and sit those three.

Maybe something not in blue, even though they're beautiful?

If I were you I will add this



Bring some color to the collection ; with no worries of scratching it and cool AF

Probably not your style but I felt I have to say it

Alternatively just a get a submariner 114060



Good luck

I wouldn’t flip your 116506 for the 5168g.

I’d add a PCC, either a 3970p or a 5970p, depending on your budget.

Given your criteria, this is the direction I'd be leaning and probably toward the Zeitwerk.

ALS zeitwerk is a great suggestion. It would be a fine addition and wonderfully compliment what you have without much overlap.

You have some serious bangers in your collection. I can't even think of a watch you should get. Got yourself covered there.

You have 3 of the best watches in your collection! I would love to have any of yours!

For the 4th, would you consider the AP Royal Oak Tourbillon Extra-Thin Openworked in platinum?

You like chronos and calendars. For #4 go for any 3970, 5970, or the 5270p
