You have land and sea but I don't count GMT as air

DD pt.
Great collection, well done.
They may all have sentimental value so don't do this but I can't help but think it's close to perfect and with a little jiggery pokery it could get to nivarna.
So leave the left hand half as is, remove right hand 5. Replace the GMT in the third row bottom and put the DD and the Tog in the fourth. Add a yellow gold sky-dweller to the third and the new two tone root beer. Land, sea and air, three varieties of each. Lastly add a.platinum DD to the fourth row.
How does that look?

Icon19 I think this would fit nicely...

I would need more info to accurately predict your next acquisition, but I would say that since you have a 16622, I would at least try on a 116655 RoseGold Yachtmaster.

You might be pleasantly surprised...

Great collection already! If I was you, I'd sit tight until Basel 19 and see what's around the corner. You surely have enough amazing pieces to keep you occupied until then.

If just have to scratch that itch now, then I agree with some of the others. A Platona would look really nice in that open spot!

Wow insane collection!!! I would cringe to see the bill when it comes to service time.

My vote is for the most complex movement they provide - SkyD.

Dress watch if you have use for one. Maybe a PP or ALS or if you only like Rolex, the Cellini moonphase. Sport dressy combo a Sky Dweller

2tone Serti (diamond) dial Turn-O-Graph.
Not looking so good on my wrist.
But the pic does make it look much bigger than 36mm.






Best,

Some things I should have mentioned....

In the original post I probably should have mentioned that;

1 This box is only for Rolex. I also already own Omegas, Breitling, Panerai, Tutima, Patek, JLC and Vacheron so the land, air, sea and dress watch thing is kind of already covered.

2 My wife wears the 2tone DJ TOG, the 18k sub and the SS 16610 sub.

3 The 2 SS Daytonas were purchased for my 15 year old twins shortly after they were born so those two are really on a "looong loan" to me.

Thanks to everyone for the different ideas. Some were spot on to where I was already leaning, some made me think about things I hadn't considered (Sky Dweller) and some we just funny.

Deep down I know that I really want a white gold Daytona but that's a lot to justify and not validate an obsessive compulsion. Too late for that?

I've been circling the rose gold Yacht Master on oysterflex for awhile and if it were 43 or 44mm I would have to have one.

The new Pepsi GMT looks and from what my friend who owns one says is perfect but I'm not paying over retail and the list is long for that one.

I may just leave that spot open because if it were filled it might feel too much like the movie is over, the book is finished and the fun has ended....
Best to all,
Mike

You have an impressive collection but I agree with this (116655 YMRG) for this was the first one came to mind
