Which one to compliment the 116509 WG Meteorite Roman Numeral

Optimizing for a two precious metal watch collection. One would be more daily, casual wea while the other is weekend / nicer dress up. The 116509 meteorite / Roman numeral is a definite keeper for me. But which one should I get alongside it?

Apologies for the poll in advance - I know some folks get irritated but forums are meant to be knowledge sharing and acquire experiences from other collectors/enthusiasts.

*complement

My vote would be an 116718 for the different bracelet color and the different complication. If I had to pick from poll I'd go with the smurf, I love that blue.

For the win and great contrast to the meteorite

Thought about that as well. Having two of the same models is a decision I need to make.

thanks all. seems like the Smurf is sticking out from the pack. I am leaning towards having a diversity in the collection of 2 - so either submariner, or GMT Master - we shall see!

If you are going for only Rolex and only a two watch collection, let me propose the all gold GMT II on jubilee.

Different movement, different case, different bezel material, different dial, different metal, different band.

Not a bad idea. Jubilee/Oyster, White Gold/Yellow gold, chrono/gmt complication. Fantastic idea!
