Lots of great comments here! Not really looking to add in the near future although I did say the collection "so far"

Having said that, have you ever thought of adding a two tone or yellow-gold model in the mix? Bluesy or Root Beer might be fun.
A PM piece would be a while down the road...perhaps for a future milestone.

Good advice. I have sold two watches before and although I have no regrets I would not want a one in one out policy.

I’d say you have steel Rolexes covered. Maybe PM Daytona on strap next?[/QUOTE]

Was thinking the same...that's SS covered. Although I could see me going more vintage.

All are 40mm Rolex sport watches and have similar dial with same rounded hour markers, and a rotative bezel with numeral on it (the only thing that differ is the material used).
Unless you are GMT lover, i would keep only one (i vote pepsi) and make a choice between the YM and Sub.
I can see that, I wasn't really aiming for diversity as such but a some arabics or romans might be a nice touch. To me, the sub and YM are as different as chalk and cheese.

You're right, and before Rolex I had never owned a watch with a rotating bezel!

Well done. I think for a SS collection its pretty perfect.
Thanks! When I got the 16710 it sort of ticked lots of boxes and for me and freed me to choose modern pieces that I could simply enjoy and not fret over wait lists etc.

I think it's great as it is! You're happy with it so that's all that matters.

If you ever feel like you need change something, maybe drop the YM and Exp for a white dial 116520.

It’s the navy blue. I wanted black or grey lining but they only had the beige...but it’s more of a honey tone and I actually prefer it over a black: it’s warmer.

Great collection, but it is all sport models. Also, no chrono...

Well rounded and with variety. I like it a lot. I know you mentioned you weren't looking to add, but if you were, a fluted DJ36 (you pick the bracelet and dial) would make it a perfect family of 5.

Really nice collection, maybe could add a sub two tone or a hulk in there.

Nicely curated sir, kudos —-

Forced to move one, I’d pick the YM - I think a YG Daytona or a blue DJ would work well here, and a Speedy is never the wrong choice either —- best of luck in your journey

Great collection, and watch roll!! Down the road if you wanted to add to it, think about a fluted bezel, Sky or Day-Date, to gain one on the dressy side.

Very nice collection. I would maybe add a DJ or DD for a dress watch. Although you can probably use the YM40 as a dress watch as well. But overall a killer collection.
Enjoy and wear all of them in good health.
Thank you for sharing you collection with us.

Great collection! If you’re happy with it that’s what matters most. Similar style, yes but they’re different enough in a collection. If your looking to add one, I’d probably go for a DJ.

I like the watch roll. I’ve been looking at the Bosphorus roll but this is another one for consideration!

Fantastic collection, I'd wear every timepiece you have there.

As everyone else seems to be providing an opinion I'll jump in too. While i wouldn't suggest breaking up your current quartet (who would break up The Beatles?!) I think a timeless dressy piece would add some charm and variety for you.

Why not consider a contemporary reference Datejust 36 (ie: fluted/jubilee/blue dial w/ sticks) or even a vintage 1601?

Either would be a classic addition to your SS collection and offer some fun to your wrist. Plus neither would break the bank as they're well outside the scope of the current SS bubble. Win win
