Time to up your game and go precious metal. Forget about SS.

No more ceramic. A PM DD would round it out nicely.

I know where we are but definitely go for another brand. Rolex does many things well and the next step doesn't need to be a PP, AP or VC. Get a D. Dornbluth & Sohn, a Grand Seiko or IWC.

I'd move whatever doesn't get worn enough and branch out into something different. Patek, FPJ, Voutilainen... something other than a Rolex.

Pretty darn fantastic group you have for sure! But you’ve got to add a Sky-Deeller and a SD43.

More than I'd need. Three seems right for me.

Great collection of new SS Rolex. Are you new to collecting or do you have other, possibly vintage models?

For a lot of members (me included) any one of those five would be 'enough' lol

Truly fantastic collection, well done.

The only thing I would say is, if funds allow, maybe add a Sub (any Sub) & a JC DeepSea - then you really would be 'done'....until Basel '19 of course...

Great 5! Same as mine, except for my 14060M over the SD43.

I would consider flipping the SD for a Hulk and adding a blue SkyD or polar ExpII. Add a DD40 if you’re not only into steel. Then modern collection complete

Impressive indeed! What would be even more impressive is how you managed to convince your AD to sell you only these?

In rolex ss, it is very hard to reach the "done" state. I repeat what others said:

In order, you need to add:

Skydweller blue
Hulk
SD43
Jc dssd
DJ with rhodium dial to get a bit dressier /classic

Go for it man 5 is just one hand.

Maybe some variety for next? Enjoy what you have, in the mean time. That's quite a selection of popular pieces!

I know you don't like the watches with a green face and the dial larger than 40mm. So I won't suggest you to add Hulk and Sky-Dweller blue in your collection as above posts.
Great collection of 5 sought-after SS Rolex watches!
