What best completes this and why




Top contenders for me:
14060m
136660
New AK
Exp 1 some variety
Hulk
White SKYD
Nothing leave it open

Think Daytona and daydate out for me

Other brands covered

With the Daytona and DayDate out I'd pick the 136660, or wait for a new release that speaks to you. Doesn't seem like you need to rush filling that last spot with your current selections.

White dial explorer or a Daytona is my vote.

Daytona 100%, but you said no sooooo

How about this wildcard


That slick new WG Yachtmaster 42? You get some PM, rubber strap and that black bezel. Would fit in perfectly

If you can’t get a Daytona get a polar.

Another SDK

Very very nice lineup Rory. I do like what dmash posted though. Or you could leave it be. You’ve got so many that it would be tough for me to chose what to wear plus give all those wrist time

You’ve got a few more than I do just in this one pic alone and I struggle to wear some of mine for months on end. With your collection its now time to sit back and enjoy what you’ve amassed but I do understand very much. For some of us there is always a “what’s next”

Battling that myself as you know

Non-Rolex for some variety?

If Rolex, Daytona is missing

But if only from your list .. Exp 1

TT Explorer I or new AirKing. More than half your collection has rotating bezel, so maybe something without. Everyone's different but if I were you, I'd consolidate and start adding watches from other brands.

This collection definitely needs a white metal sports watch on a bracelet.

if no daytona or day date then leave it for now imo. anything you can get would be too repetitive

I would echo others suggestion of exp2 polar. However, from your list I would choose 14060m

If it were me, i'd add a Cellini 50505 or 50509 (sticking with Rolex.) Plus- these are now discontinued as well; would be a good way to round off the collection/add some variety. They carry the 3132 movement from the previous Explorer I too.

Although OP mentioned Daytona is out of the question, I personally still think a white dial 116500LN best compliments this incredible collection.

The GV Milgauss is one of my favourites and would look good in that spot.
