You have $50,000 to add to this collection. What do you add?
Collection comprises of
1. Black Daytona 126500ln 2. White Daytona 126500ln 3. Tudor Blackbay 54 What do you add to it (assume grey market prices). Could be 1, 2 3 or more watches as long as the sum total is $50,000. Thinking of adding a Blue Overseas 4520 and Lange 1815 Up Down (both at $50,000 in grey prices for mint conditions watches) |

I’d go with your 1815 option…
And maybe an AP of some sorts as I’m not a fan of the VC Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

i will definitely be add the Rolex Submariner (Ref. 126610LN) to this collections. Great for daily wear and investment potential.

I'd personally opt for a Patek world time of some sort, preferably the 5230P (if you can find the right deal) before I went for that ALS.
That, or a Pepsi meteorite--whichever fits your style more. You've already got a good variety of watches, so may as well go in on a heavy hitter piece. |

I don't like the Blue Overseas three hander whatsoever and might look at a 15202 Royal Oak Jumbo or 5167A Aquanaut with a 50k budget.
If I wanted a Lange 1815 UD on top I'd part with one of the Daytonas. |

$25k for the H. Moser Streamliner, you really need a square case and FUNky dial with personality. Next $5k for getting a MAD1 in your fave color. You got $20k remaining....
Omega speedmaster ~7k (kinda redundant with your Daytonas, but maybe something else from Omega, a Snoopy?), and the last $13k goes to a CUSTOM Torsti Laine GG3, you choose dial color, style, hands, etc. If you want a more dressy timepiece, may as well go custom made to your specs.

I would add the VC OS. One of the most versatile watches I have ever owned. Love it on rubber or bracelet. Just an overall great watch! I have it in Rose Gold and hard to find a better blue dial IMHO.

I’d put the money in the bank and leave it there until I knew exactly what I wanted.

Ideally, I'd get the 15202, sell one of the Daytonas and add either the Sub or BLRO. |

I would get a SS Rolex BLRO, Pepsi, on Jubilee and a SS Submariner ND. That should bring you in at around 32-35k and then I would add am Omega Speedmaster Professional, Pick your dial, classic black, new white or the new blue dial FOIS and a few straps. You should have about 7-8k left and I would book a trip somewhere nice for a long weekend.
