My "new" Trifecta: 1971 Daytona 6263 from my grandfather, 1972 Red Sub 1680 and 1973 Pepsi GTM 1675.
A friend of mine said that he'd rather have a nice classic Rolex rather than spending the money on a new watch and have it possibly depreciate. It kind of stuck with me. At the time, I only had the 6263 in the classic line. I had a BLNR and a 14060M that I wore on a regular basis. I also have a BNIB 116520 white face that's sitting in my safe that I purchased from my local AD. I also had a mint Z-Serial 16710 Pepsi that I never wore since I had acquired it (traded a Hulk even up about four years ago).
I first traded the BLNR for the 1675 and I was hooked. Being able to wear the watch and enjoy the patina was so nice.
Then, I traded the 16710 plus the 14060M for the Red Sub. I haven't looked back! I'm loving these classic pieces.

You have 3 of the 4 holy grails. Just need the 1803 President to round out that Guntlat of Thanos.

The 1967 Rolex Submariner 5513, Meters First edition. It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.

Fantastic trio!! Your pieces look stellar! I just picked up my last piece to achieve the same (almost) trio! Only my GMT is the 16710
