What am I missing?

My modest collection.



My father's Omega 600/ MKii LRRP GMT/ Omega Speedmaster 3570.40/ Rolex SubDate 16610

Pondering the purchase of a birth year Rolex (1972). Perhaps a DateJust or a 5513. Torn like an old sweater..,

Nice assembly! Add a 1972 DJ. They still look great.
If you're a stickler for the current date showing under your cyclops, be sure either to wear it every day or buy a winder. No quick-set in '72!

DJ SD Daytona DD true GMT how's that for a start.
You do have a very nice collection, but I'm sure you expected us here to push Rolex.

No question, I think a datejust would fit in nicely!

Have to agree with the DJ, or perhaps an Explorer?

I have the bracelets

Just a bigger fan of the desk friendlier NATO and Zulu straps.

I'm leaning toward another dress watch. In the hunt for a two-tone DJ...

Your collection doesn't appear to be about diversity. I don't think your 'missing' anything.
