GMT on jubilee as someone else suggested.

So you only wear divers? There are so many more types of watches. Study them, to see if any appeal to you. Add a Datejust, or a GMT, or a Daytona. If you really can’t think of another watch you like, save your money! You have a nice rotation, though not much variety.

Five divers seems excessive. Branch out a little.

Zach69SS · 11 June 2024, 12:39 AM

Whatever makes you happy, if you want another go for it. Life is too short.

rossi46 · 11 June 2024, 12:52 AM

It's hard to not be a smartass here...

Since you clearly have a thing for modern Rolex divers (yawn), the only place to go next is full gold. Either yellow or white gold Sub - but that should be your next watch.

Kinnakeet · 11 June 2024, 12:54 AM

I would sell off the bottom 3 on your list and out the money into a WG Sub.

Bazil · 11 June 2024, 04:38 AM

A pair of deez ..

rolexpatek363 · 11 June 2024, 04:46 AM

Seiko Orange Monster.

SS Oyster · 11 June 2024, 05:17 AM

I'd say you are missing a Chrono (Daytona) and GMT (Master II)

Doood · 11 June 2024, 05:25 AM

Polar Exp2 or white SkyD.

This or as others have stated start branching off and find some new brands to take some interest in!

Tylerlsu2008 · 11 June 2024, 06:05 AM

You like divers, which is cool.

I would without question buy this one. Seems you are okay with size. I think these are beautiful and would spice up your collection. My preference would be the blue.

djjonesivs · 7 July 2024, 07:48 AM

I appreciate all the candid input!
most of which I would not have thought of.

since I consider this a very long term journey I will reference this thread in the future!

I did put in another request, this one is rather special since my 1st child is due soon and I plan on handing that piece down to him!.

at the very least ill tell you all that I didn't switch brands as I feel that Rolex resonates with my own core values, so I am loyal in that sense.

once I receive it I'll update you all!

thank you very much!

This watch was my thought also. Then for the next one do a Blancpain fifty fathoms.

thesharkfactor · 7 July 2024, 09:25 AM

You really need a 16610 Submariner and/or a 16600 Sea Dweller in that dive collection. Or even a 16618 - the ultimate 5 digit Sub in my opinion.

4reRlxGuy · 7 July 2024, 10:17 AM

Something in the GMT, Daytona, or Day Date range?

Solid choice. Traditional looking dive watch with JLC level watchmaking (a step above Rolex from a finesse standpoint).

However, if OP were to go Rolex, GMT would be my bet. I really like the vintage GMT suggestion.

Model12 · 7 July 2024, 10:33 AM

A Winchester Model 70 in .270 or a 69 Camaro SS.

Perhaps a Vietnam era Randall Model 1 knife.

Or a few St Gaudens double eagles.

Pw92676 · 7 July 2024, 10:33 AM

Royal Oak Offshore Diver

123Blueface · 7 July 2024, 10:42 AM

Whatever your heart desires.

I’d like you folks to provide some candid input on what YOU would get next if this was your collection.

What I have currently

No date 114060
Hulk 116610lv
Sd50 126600
Deep sea JC136660
Bluesy 126613

How about another dive watch

watchwatcher · 8 July 2024, 11:12 PM

Really nice group of watches.

So, your choices are: continuing the diver theme or going for something different.

No wrong answers, as there are so many great watches in the line up.

Why not decide for yourself, what are you after or is it just about owning another watch?

Every watch you own is basically the same, so open your eyes and look at what is on the market and not the same as what you currently have.

There are thousands of watches on the market, I'm sure that you can find something that fires up the passion to own it.

Bazil · 9 July 2024, 07:52 AM

Did you get anything ?

Kenny G · 9 July 2024, 04:50 PM

If sticking with Rolex, I would sell 3 or 4 of those and get a DD.
