What’s next?
Hi All! The itch for a new piece is back and can’t quite decide where to go. Currently have a 16710 Pepsi, 3572.50 Speedy and IWC 40mm Portuguese on leather. $15kish to play with.
I was initially thinking a No Time To Die but afraid it will just be second fiddle to the 16710. Dark side of the moon gives a cool black case and strap look but outdated and not a great value? Datejusts are great but I don’t have to be dressy often. Day date white gold is the dream. Let me know any thoughts or suggestions. Thanks! |

Don't buy anything and put that money towards the dream.

Given your collection…..I’d personally go DJ. Definitely different than what you have, gives nice variety, and you can wear a DJ with anything

A nice DJ41 with nice dial in SS jubilee or oyster, I prefer the jubilee and I wear mine all the time with jeans for a nice lunch or dinner.. they are so classic and versatile in my opinion. Or a Santos maybe even a Zenith.
Can’t go wrong with an Omega that no time to die in titanium is sweet.love the band. Happy hunting! |

Based on the information you provided. the WG DD when funds allow appears to be the logical choice.

$15k gets you really close to a 126613LB, blue dial, two tone Sub.

A Submariner ND. Classic, clean and balanced dial. An Icon.

you're like $1000-$2000 off of a mint unpolished 18239. Why not just do that and fulfill your dream?

Don't buy just to buy. It won't last - trust me...been there. Figure out what you want, save, then buy.

I would look into a vintage 1680 or 5513 if you didn't just get a DD.

He clearly wants to spend his money on a watch. Let him. Jeez…
OP, it looks like you like omega. I think of the watches they offer, the white speedy and the no time to die seamaster are 2 standout pieces. I don’t think the bond seamaster will play second fiddle, just a different watch. If you want Rolex, I think adding a DJ is an excellent choice. Another realm would be to consider something different from your current collection - say 42mm explorer 2 polar |
