Advice needed to add a new "child" to my collection

Hi friends of WUS. I'm looking to add a new "child" to my little (growing) collection:



- 14060M non COSC

- 16610

- 116610LN

- 14000M black index dial



I'm undecided whether to continue the diver-collection ot to add a Moonwatch. What would You do if You were me?

how about a GMT of some sort?

Moonwatch would be a great addition (if you want to branch out to other brands)

First they are Rolex watches and are quite inanimate and should be treated as so, as they only life they have is when they are wound.You seem to have mostly dive type watches you could try the new Explorer 11 or perhaps the Daytona.

There are so many different ways you could go. It really depends, what do you like the most?

I'd lean towards either the GMT or chrono complication.

You've got lots of sports watches. Why not shop dress models?

Why another diver?
There are many other options, and Speedy Pro sounds like an awesome idea!
I had the watch and I`m hundred percent sure that you`ll be thrilled with it.
Also, consider Rolex Daytona, maybe Datejust or Datejust II...?

Do you have interest in either a Daytona or a GMT? Either would be my next addition.
