Need help with my next purchase

Currently I have a DJ 41 with a rhodium dial. Please see the photo below attached.

I am looking to pick up my next piece however I am stuck in which direction I should go. It is between these three pieces:

Rolex Submariner No Date 114060

Rolex Submariner Date 116610LN

Omega Speedmaster Professional

Which watch do you think pairs best with my current timepiece?

Among the three, sub no date. Then speedmaster next year.

But mayve you need something in white or blue dial for variety.

Gosh that's a difficult one. I can see your predicament. I have both the sub and the Seamaster. Love both. Really depends on dial colour. For a bit of contrast you could go blue Seamaster or alternatively have you thought about a bluesy. A bit more expensive but i see you like gold.

Another thing just crossed my mind. If you are looking to build your collection it's probably a good idea to expand your horizon beyond just Rolex. Some people think it's the only watch company out there. There are many excellent watches. Those who just buy Rolex aren't true collectors. They are just followers of fashion.

Can’t disagree enough with that statement... but you’re entitled to your opinion, flawed though it is.

114060. You have the date/cyclops with the DJ. The Sub lets you mix things up a little more.

I feel they’re all great choices with the rhodium DJ. I currently have both Sub c date and Speedmaster pro and am thinking of a DJ or OP in the future. For the 3 choices I’d go for the Sub date first because I find it useful. But If you think that it’s too much with another date complication then I agree that the Sub would be a great addition.

The Omega will always fair badly on a Rolex Forum.

The Sub Date should win by a small margin but the Sub has gained popularity.

It comes down to which one you like best.

No date sub for the symmetry as you already have the date function on the DJ

I would go the 114060 - only because I don't like the cyclops.

If you can't chose between them, I would get the one which is the most available. The one you can own tomorrow. If they are equally available to you and you can't pick one, you haven't yet met the watch you want. I'd get the Sub Date. But I'm not you.

sub>speedy.

I wouldn’t get 114060. Most say to, but of course this just my opinion... It was cool for a month, than traded up to 116610ln. Couldn’t be happier!

I would go with the ND Submariner but the date version is nice also.

Sub "No Date". The dial has perfect symmetry. I've never liked the cyclops, but that's just me...

Get the 16610LV. Perfect combination for dressy/semi casual occasions.

I would say sub no date, but nothing wrong with the date, just prefer the clean dial.

Love the speed master, would add that later if you can. Nice diverse collection there
