Sea-Dweller would be a natural fit as a next step.

I used to have many more, but buying better watches simplified the whole thing for me. This is my dive watch collection now:

Have 1 currently, Sub. Love the versatility. Wore it in the ocean today, and to a wedding.

Curious as to others thoughts - I like the look of divers, have been hesitant tho get anther... do you feel that's doubling up in your collection, purpose wise, great all assigned watches, etc...
