116613LB Vs 116515LN Vs ROO?

Hi fellow TRF,
Currently I have an AP ROO Navy theme (White Dial) and I really need advice which of these 3 I should add to the collection:

1. TT Submariner 116613LB : I think a staple in most collections (the black ones are to common), will be daily worn, cons too flashy? Currently only able to afford this one

or should I save for a few months and get:

2. Daytona 116515 Ivory Dial : Need a dressier piece, will be daily worn, cons no date

3. AP ROO Elephant/Grey Theme : Purely because I like the looks of it cons scratch magnet, as I am fairly new in the watch game, also heard about unreliability of it?

I am also considering to flip my current AP for the daytona or the AP Elephant, or should I?

I think the 116613LB is nicest looking Rolex made IMO, I am probably biased. Look no further !

I would get the Blue Subc and switch the AP to the Elephant, make a really nice pair.

I am not a fan of the TT sub so my first choice would be the AP then the Daytona.

Since I love the reference (Very tempted to pull the trigger in the near future) here's a picture slide show video of Ol' Bluesy created just for you!

Sorry for the late reply, and thanks guys for the input. After hunting and asking quite some time, decided pull the trigger with Bluesy. Shines even brighter compared to the clips that she made, which maybe a downside, attracting unwanted attention

Here's a pic of it, I used my sellers photos cause I don't own a decent camera
