Incoming second Rolex

Hi TRF fellow members,
I am a new member here and find this forum very helpful with so many knowledgable members. 👏
Long story short: I acquired my first Rolex in 2011. It has been my daily watch except I am doing renovation on the side. 2015 was a successful year: bonus from my boss, extra cash from renovation, birthday coming up. Enough excuses for my second Rolex. After shopping at an AD and did so much research here, I have decided to get a Datejust ll with blue stick dial and fluted bezel. AD checked and Toronto has it in stock which will take a week or two. Below are some watches that I tried on. I was just trying those two Daytonas for fun only (out of my budget).

That's what my friend said. If I am going to get my third Rolex, it is going to be a PM model (either Daytona or DD40).
Cheers~
