Rolex OP26 Alternatives

I recently purchased a pair of watches for my wife and I. She got the OP26 in Olive Green. (DD41blue for me.) The intent is to wear these a long time. I have a modest collection and this is her only watch. The intent is to give mine to our son but we have 2 daughters. The OP is timeless and pretty close to a woman's wear anything/do anything piece. What is a similar type of watch that would compliment this and perhaps have similar value [speculatively] in 10 or 20 years?

Thoughts?

I got my wife a ladies ‘explorer’ to match her OP.

No date is good for her as she wears sporadically and it’s easy to set. The OP is a 2t on jube and that exp-type is all ss with black dial on oyster.

I think that covers it all for her activities and style.

An OP26 is just way too small for a modern girl or woman for example.

If you are giving your son a DD... buy your daughters was a DJ.
