My Fantastic 4... I need a GMT

Today I finally had a chance to take a picture of my small collection together. It feels great to look at them in details and compare their different characteristics. Also gave them a good cleaning.
I noticed a GMT function would be a good addition to them. Don’t you think ?

GMT, Chrono, and a dress watch on leather (depending on how often you might use a dress watch).

Yea I agree. Slowly but surely to build a well rounded collection.
BLNR is next on my list and then white dial Daytona ( don’t know when I will be able to get one) and then move on to some PM of course

I like your style! Throw a white dial OP39 in there while you "wait" for the Daytona.

Great pieces Chris - 42 Polar Explorer II would add white dial + GMT feature, love mine and highly recommend

Would also be ok size-wise since you already have the 44mm JC

Great collection! I agree a white dial is in order, and the polar Explorer would be perfect!

Yes, GMT BLNR or BLRO would work

Daytona for equal variety if that is the goal but I went GMT as these bicolour ceramic versions live up to the hype.

One of the nicest quad core Rolex collections I’ve seen. Very nice mate. Love the Milgauss. Very underrated and the Submariner is perfection.

If you were getting rid of any I’d probably ditch the deep sea and add a GMT.

Does it have to be Rolex? Why not a JLC or even better a Lange or Vacheron?

If you insist on Rolex, then Cellini would fit the bill. But personally I think in that price range JLC for example offer more value for the money.
