Get rid of every non-Rolex brand except the speedy. The speedy is a classic and cheap to keep, I’d sell all other Breitling, omega etc.
Add a dress watch like a complication Patek (if possible). You can get used ones few years old at a descent price.

Subtractions:

  • iwc is ok, but you have a much better chrono with the moonwatch. Plus the tri-register layout of the iwc just seems awkward to me. And the day/date integration clashes imo.
  • not sure what that watch in the top corner is. If it carries sentimental value, then keep it. If not, move it out.

additions:
  • cartier santos in steel (white dial, large model if your wrist >7 inches, medium <7 inches) vs. rolex explorer ii, polar
    --- or ---
  • tt wimbledon dj41 in rg, fluted on jubilee

Same as the other, get rid of the omegas, breitlings but difficult to recommend as we don't know your lifestyle or what you wanna get out of your next watch

Sell the cheapest one and buy a new phone or camera.

Dump everything but the GMT and the IWC pilot. Get a black Daytona or a blue Skydweller or a simple blue or rhodium OP 39 and you are in much better shape here IMO. You could keep the speedmaster if you want of course but I've never been a fan so I'd rather wear the GMT or Pilot all day anyway. A daytona would be another story. Could also consider a 41 Sub which would be a nice piece to add once you've cleared the decks.

In what situation would you choose to wear any of the other watches above the GMT and YM?

Without any context to this question, here’s what I’d do: sell everything and put in some cash to add VC overseas QP

The collection changed a bit in the last few weeks. Any new thoughts/suggestions? Taking a break from acquiring (absent another call) but likely will still sell one or more.

I’d agree from photos but in person it really looks great, especially on the rubber strap.

Six digit sub and 39mm OP. I would add a 16800 and have money for vacation to enjoy it.

I wanted to now see what intelligent (truly/not being sarcastic) thoughts people have of owning two variants of the same watch. See the updated photo from a few posts up.
