Some Gaps to fill in my watch box

Just got a new watch box .... as you can see below even when including my wife's mid size TT YM I have a few spaces spare. One will be filled when my 5513 arrives from the States on 7th July.

Apologies for poor shot but the collection is a GMTc; GV; Glycine; JLC Master Compressor Geographic; 5513 (to arrive not soon enough !!).

So guys - suggestions please what I should fill the gaps with ....not necessarily Rolex ....maybe a dress watch (I have my eye on an IWC Portuguese 7 day auto)

Nobody in their right mind would want to ask me how to fill up a watch box!

A nice G-Shock and a Seiko Diver watch would make great additions for a small price!

How about a blue dial AP RO. Should complement your current collection quite nicely
Or a JLC Master Control if you need a more dressy watch.

anything nice with a white dial would complement your collection.

thanks for all your ideas.... guess when I look at the picture again it is obvious that something with a white face would be good.....maybe the new Explorer II when it lands. Also like the Omega idea ....when I was 5 years old my dad got an Omega and that started the interest in watches
