looking to up grade my collection.

See my signature, what would complete this collection, I'm not looking for a Daytona or 18k Rolex or explorer either.

I have the GMT II from 2001, I love it. But the new model is giving me chills.
I don't know if I need another GMT at this time. The WG Sub is what I really, but 225k isn't the right time now. I am totally confused
Thanks for your input
mark

Also, did I hear the explorer is doing an up grade on the clasp or something and it's going to at the next show ?

Why not go for a GMT TTc.

Interesting news on the Explorer Mark. ;>)

Why not try a different brand? I think there is no such thing as 'completing' a collection.

SS Datejust - or even Datejust II - you need to step away from tool watch mode every now and again...

My vote would be for a some version of the DJ, DJII, or the latest version of the EXPII due out later this year.

I agree. Something from a totally different line is good.

TWO CHOICES:

1. Continue with sport watch theme and purchase the new Explorer II when in debuts.

2. Since you have so many sport watches so with a TT DJ OR I recommend DJII, or go with SS DJII

That would be my recommendation!
