Depends on the direction you want to take. If you are looking for sports models, go for GMT or Explorer. If dress, go day date or datejust.

If you want to go TT get a GMT C. Are you interested in any other brands? What will the watch be used for, dress? Casual? Maybe something on a strap rather than bracelet for "nicer" attire?

You got 2 cracking Rolex's, if it were me I'd be looking at other brands.
I think a dress watch is essential, so I would get, JLC Reverso. SS or even better in gold. |

Panerai GMT or the new Exp2... the dual timezone is the next complication you need.

Anything vintage, current Exp II polar or possibly the new Exp II (I need to see it in person first though).

Maybe the new Explorer or a PAM would be a nice addition. I also have the same Rolex watches as you and enjoy the Panerai in the mix.

Know exactly how you feel. Got an LV sub back in 2006 and recently got the SS Daytona in white.
I'll be good for a few more years but the two watches that have my eye are the SS/plat yachtmaster and a blue-faced turn-o-graph oyster. |

I'm in a very similar situation. I've somewhat settled on a 16750 Pepsi for my next purchase and then potentially an AP Royal Oak.
As much as I like other Rolex models I don't really see myself buying any of the new ceramics and chances are from here on out its either vintage or moving up to AP, PP etc. |
