GMT IIc.
Depends how big a watch you want. The Deepsea is 44mm, but the GMT II is 40mm. Still has great presence on the wrist, same size as the Milgauss.
I was looking at both the Milgauss and GMT II on the weekend. Both wonderful. If I was into that large a watch, I would want one of each!
Cheers,
Carl

Not on the list, but an Exp II would be a nice way to expand the lineup. Failing that, the Platty Yachtmaster is my catch-all recommended watch. Great range and stunning presence.

Hi Carl
I did try on the Deep Sea, I like the 44 mm and the solid quality and also look difference with all my collection, but I have a issue about the depth because it look like putting the clock on the wrist.
And the GMT II is nice watch , but do you think it look similar to the SS Sub which I had already.

Please comment

I don't think the Sub LV and GMTII-C look the same at all so I wouldn't worry - I am lucky to have both and alongside one another the differences are very apparent - what they do share though is the maxi dial which I think is a major plus - good luck with your decision.

Think outside the box all the watch listed there are 40mm except the DSSD want something different. Get the DSSD I got it and love it absolutely no regrets!

What a great collection you have. I have to vote for the GMT II or if you prefer a GMT IIc.

GMTII. You already have a 'divers' watch while the YM just doesn't float my boat.

No offence. What's the point of owning another sport rolex?
Save up for a DD or other brand like PP & A.Lange.

If you're concerned about getting watches that look alike, then maybe consider to YM. I think it looks sufficiently different from the Sub/GMT. Good luck!

Honestly, the addition of a GMT would make the perfect collection.
