narrowing it down, poll on next piece to add

I like to have a diverse collection. Have narrowed it down to these three. note: the GMT will be a pepsi in the next week or so.
I really don't want another Daytona.
I have enough yellow gold,
I never wear my DJ,
I think my favorite piece is my Black Sub date.


thanks for any help!

If you're looking for diversity, then the YM2 gets my vote.

Now, since you made the statement that the black sub is your favorite, perhaps the DSSD (but with the awesome D-Blue dial) or the green sub.

IMHO Any submariner-ish would be redundant, I don't like YM so YMII for me.

I would go the LVc route. I am in a similar position and have narrowed it down to that as well for my next incoming!!!

I voted YM because that'll be my next and final incoming. If you like Subs, then maybe the LVc; I love mine.

No wrong answer except the YM2. Good luck

YM2 if you really want a diverse collection, altho I think you should also be looking at AP and PP as there is a fair bit of repetition there already.

The black Sub is my favorite as well. I'd say get rid of the DJ and get the LV-C.

WOW! You have an awesome collection. For some added versatility. I'd definitely go with the yachtmaster ii.

+1 - with that collection I'd go for an AP or PAM or perhaps a DSOTM

Very nice diverse collection.
White, blue and black dials covered. If you are changing to a Pepsi insert you have even more color to the collection.
How about a vintage piece. Appears you like Subs and sport watches. A classic 5513 wears very different than a modern sub and is a staple of a sport collection.
An Explorer or Explorer II would also make sense.
A DD would also be a nice piece for your collection but if you don't wear the DJ hard to say if a DD would be different.
