Icon20 I really need help to complete my collection

Hello everyone,

I currently have a Daytona 116520 black dial. I'm look for buying another one.

I'm between a Datejust 2 with blue stick dial or Submariner 114060.

I'm thinking I have one sport watch so should I go to the Datejust 2?

Thank for reading and please let me know your opinion.

If you have a Daytona I would say sub and make the Daytona your dresser watch.

Thank you everyone for helping me out. I will get the Sub for sure :)

For a 2nd Rolex do I go the more classic route and take the Sub or do I go the more interesting route and go for the green?

Go green if you like it, you've done black.

If you want to be interesting by being green go for the green dial, yellow gold GMT ref. 116718.

Do you travel much? If so, I would heartily recommend a GMT II-C

I agree also if you are going to go black dial. Get the GMT IIc for sure best black dial sub type watch.

Be original. Avoid the sub and get something else.

Sub, without a shadow of a doubt. Go with the LVc though as you already have a Rolex with a black dial.

Mine says hi
