Next watch for collection

Appreciate your inputs on next purchase. Not a trader, buy to keep. Current watches:
1. GMT 2 Batman
2. 1680-8 submariner
3. Cellini danaos in WG with black strap
4. Date just 16233
I wear them all regularly, except Cellini which I use for formal mostly. Next 2 watches, and likely last 2:
1. Day date in platinum 118206
2. RG YM 116655
Will buy preowned. Likely 5-8 years between purchases. Which 1 first?

RG YM 116655. Good to add a color metal to your collection.

In a few years, you can move it with the DJ 16233 to get the DD Platinum 118206.

116655 is a great watch. My wife has one and refuses to take it off. I figured if I got her the 40mm I could get a crack at it, no such luck. Happy hunting.
