okay , you own a sub w/date and a Ss daytona... whats your next purchase ?
So what would it be ?
My story . I purchase a sub w/date back in 05 and now 6yrs later I finally got a ss daytona with a white dial and now I am asking myself .. What's next ? So in your opinion would you get another rolex and if so which one ? Or would your start to diversify your collection and go with another brand ? ???what would you do ? |

It depends on how much you love the other Rolex models.
Since you're asking here in the Rolex section, I assume that other Rolex models really move you. Personally, I would get a 5001 Portuguese (white), 1675/0 GMT-Master, or any Speedmaster Pro Moon Watch.

GMTII Coke, Pepsi, or Ceramic would round out your collection of sport models pretty nicely.

If you an afford it, I would try to add a 18kt model, or platinum, to your collection. Maybe a YG GMT-IIc or DDII?

I would look at AP or if you can stretch to it, Patek.
Alternatively look at the Day Date II choices |

What watch sings to you? If it speaks to you pay attention, go for whatever makes you the most happiest.

You have two awesome watches already!I was hoarding watches for a while than I realized best case scenario I could only wear two at any one time,as I only have two wrists!! Now I have thinned my herd and found my bank account likes me much better.Good luck with your choice. Regards John Szabo

We are on the same path... The sub, then the daytona. Next for me was a Pam 312. My next purchase will be a yg president and I think I will be done for a bit.

Actually.. I take back my previous statement. Your next purchase is a quality watch winder, maybe a cool Orbita or something. Otherwise you're going to have some winding to do each day!

I think a good watch winder is good idea and a TT datejust,tag or GMT II is sounding good.
