What to add next?

What should I add to the current collection? I think I need a chronograph. I don't like the Daytona so that one is out. Glashute, Blancpain, another Lange, Speedmaster? What do you guys think?

Speedmaster. Either the traditional Hesalite Moonwatch or the new white dial. I tried the white one on last week, very beautiful in person.

Nice collection you have there. I'd go for a Speedmaster Professional. I like the look of the white one. I couldn't possibly tell you what you like.

Maybe a White Dial Speedmaster or a precious metal sedna rose gold Speedmaster to add to that collection?

A chrono. If you want one that can time more than 3o', then i'd say Patek 598o or VC OS blue dial. If you don't care about that aspect and 3o' are suficient for you, then Patek 5172 blue or Lange 1815 boutique edition.

What a collection! But I think you´re missing a diver, so suggest the Submariner, preferably the classic no date version!

Well, with your collection, it feels like one of your remaining slots should go to a Fifty-Fathoms (probably a blue dial).

As for a chrono- for a dress chrono, probably a Cornes de Vache; for a sporty chrono, an OF Daytona looks like it would fit the bill, but if you don't like Daytonas, a classic Speedy (or the new white dial for diversity), or potentially a VC Overseas chrono- depending on your taste and pocketbook.

(Nice collection, btw!)

If you’re adding a chronograph and skipping the Daytona, here are some great options:
1. Glashütte Original Senator Chronograph – Elegant German craftsmanship with a big date.
2. Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Chronograph – A sporty flyback chronograph with dive-watch roots.
3. A. Lange & Söhne Datograph Up/Down – A masterpiece of horology with unmatched finishing.
4. Omega Speedmaster – Expand your Speedy collection with a ’57, Moonphase, or vintage piece.
5. Zenith El Primero – Iconic design with a high-beat movement.
6. Breguet Type XXI – Aviation-inspired with unique style.

Would you prefer a dressier or sportier chronograph to round out your collection?

I do love chronographs and to me, the Daytona is the prettiest one by far, but this just a point of view. If you don’t like them, I would choose an Omega Speedmaster 321 Ed. White.

Anyway, awesome collection. This A. Lange Anual Calendar is one of my favourite watches. I hope to own one someday!

Ask yourself what you really want then buy that. If nothing comes to mind then wait until you ache for something.
