Since you have so many sports watches, maybe something like a Datejust or Explorer I

I would add a Tudor gmt. A Rolex BLRO if you can, but the Tudor is fantastic. Another shout could be a polar explorer for a white option.

What sort of price range are you looking at?

Vintage Blue dial 36mm Datejust would be different.

Another Sub! 16570 Exp II white dial would fit in nicely with that set.

Well, there's only handful of Rolexes out of the current crop that really interests me:

DSSD Deep Blue
BLNR
Daytona 116500 white dial
Daytona 116519LN WG with steel dial
Explorer

You have a great selection of divers! If it were me, and I had the same watches you currently have, then I'd probably go with the BLNR for my next one. I have no doubt the Daytona would be a fun watch to own, but I've found that having a GMT is actually really useful. Also a Speedy Pro would fit right in with your collection.
