No more Rolexes.
Break the monotony with a Heuer Monaco? |

Every collection deserves a Sub.
That aside, a cool independent like M.A.D. 1 or CW Bel Canto are great options. If going in deeper, a DD . |

The DateJust Azzurro dial is superior. Organise a trade asap.

Beautiful watch, congrats.
All you're missing, IMO, is a sub. |

1. DD would probably be my choice if I stick to Rolex 2. VC is a great suggestion 3. JLC Reverso I would have to try one on but from pictures it doesn’t seem like my style. I would be willing to get rid of the tag. It was the first watch I bought that made me realize I wanted to start wear something nicer on my wrist. The fossil is the gift my mom gave me for Christmas before she died of cancer so that one will stay with me forever. I never wear it but it’s the only sentimental watch to me. |

Not a bad idea I don’t necessarily care so much if I have a few watches from the same brand. Ultimately, I do want to build a strong eight watch collection before I go onto more watch collecting. I do think would be an awesome purchase for my next watch that I probably wouldn’t do until we start landing a few more deals at my business. I’m probably gonna get rid of the tag and then the fossil since it’s a special gift from my late mother will probably just keep some safe and not put it in that box. So I still have about three watches that I can add before the eight watch collection is complete. |

Yeah, having a Sky Dweller I don’t see the point for a day just either. Seems like a diver is something that has been suggested multiple times. The AT is superb I really love the multiple NATO straps that I purchased with it at the same time. It’s a fun watch. |

Get rid of everything but Omega that you just bought, Pepsi and Daytona.
Add AP RO with a silver dial for special occasions. Realistically if watch is not earning spot on your wrist, why keeping it? That is why I am sticking to 3-4 watches collection idea. But if you want to own many watches for a sake of owning them and exhibiting like in a museum, I have a long list for you: Rolex DJ Rolex DD Rolex Sub Omega Speedmaster Omega Seamaster 300 Tudor BB 58 JLC Reverso IWC Portuguieser Cartier Santos AP RO APROC VC overseas PP Calatrava (up to you which one) H. Mosert pioneer And that is without watches over 40k. Otherwise options expand really quickly) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Yeah. Great suggestions. To really break things up it would kind of step out of my comfort zone so probably the next episode to go try things on things that I normally wouldn’t like and see if it feels different on my wrist. |

Not a bad suggestion. For some reason, I just haven’t ever been a huge fan of the sub. It’s probably too practical for me. Haha. I’m actually going to get rid of the tag and move the fossil to safe place so I will actually have three spots available in my watch collection. I think a day date is necessary. |

Yeah, I like that idea. That’s kind of why I got the Aqua Tera. Just want to build a strong 8 watch collection. The Sky Dweller doesn’t get much wrist time and I’ll be moving out the tag probably sale it and move the fossils somewhere safe due to it being sentimental. |

Yeah we will see maybe I’ll go down to a 3-4 watch collection. Was wanting to get to a strong 8 watch collection and decide if they get a fairly equal wrist time or their just for show/storage. That H. Mosert Pioneer is lovely. Thank you for suggesting it!! |

A Polar Explorer II would fit nicely in your collection.

A PloProf or Panerai would really add some diversity and unique personality.

What would you do next with my collection?
Diggin’ that Omega!
Dial colors play a big role in how I curate my collection; if I had your collection I’d add PM Rolex and go RG Olive dial DD40 or YG Green dial DD40. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I was looking at the Panera boutique today. I didn’t try any on, but they seemed a little large next weekend. I’ll go try on lots of different watches, but I did do window shopping today at South Coast Plaza in Orange County. |

Can't go wrong with an AP ROO, or a UN maxi. You've got some nice pieces already. Just my suggestion

Thanks the Omega is so fun. Just threw on some omega nato straps today. Great for summer! I think we’re on the same page. I have been eyeing quite a bit of rose gold in olive Dial day dates. I’m just not sure if I’m gonna keep the Sky dweller. I think if I get a dat date I’m gonna get rid of the Sky Dweller. It’s movement is my favorite movement I’ve ever used. It’s just very bulky and heavy and I don’t wear it often. |

Thanks I’m loving the omega. Keep using the word fun but that’s how I feel when I wear it plus I love the amount of bracelets and straps. I can swap out with it from Omega. That’s pretty cool too. I am leaning towards a day, but I think I’m gonna clear out the sky dweller and then make a decision. |
