Insightful members of TRF,
With one space in the watch box i'm getting that itch to fill it.
I am waiting to see a DaytonaC white dial in the flesh to see if that will sit well with the others and alongside the 116520 white dial.
But no such calls as yet from the local AD's.
My other inclining is the SubC TT sunburst blue dial as I don't have a PM piece.

So what would you be going to view to fill the gap....?
Really enjoy reading the opinions and reasonings.

(The citizen bottom right has to stay as it was my first "real" watch purchase back in my teens, so has some good memories, and is probably the beginning of my likes for the white dial watches)

You're missing the HULK

Day-Date would round things out nicely. Cheers!

Replace the black bay or black sub with a hulk, replace the 116520 with a white ceramic Daytona get a liquid metal PO or dark side of the moon for the non-Rolex row. :)

Something on rubber without a numbered bezel.

watchwatcher · 31 August 2016, 09:33 AM

I like the bluesy option. Also, the Lvc, as suggested.

In a different direction, how about one of the new Basel releases, like the EXP or AK?

AK797 · 31 August 2016, 09:36 AM

TT for sure, then full PM once you see the light.

ap1 · 31 August 2016, 09:42 AM

Neil beat me to it - PM

luvsub · 31 August 2016, 09:52 AM

Any DD

Cryten · 31 August 2016, 09:59 AM

That's the danger of watch boxes, feeling the need to fill them. I decommissioned my 10 watch box and bought a 6 watch box to consolidate a bit.

For your collection an LV would fit nicely to add something different, otherwise get a smaller box, consolidate a bit, and add some PM as others have suggested.

mtgjr · 31 August 2016, 10:01 AM

Personally....I'd get a 5 digit reference. Either 16710, 16600, or 16610LV.

crowncollection · 31 August 2016, 10:01 AM

you need a bigger box lol, just kidding a day date is needed imho

the0thrdude · 31 August 2016, 10:17 AM

How about something on the dressier side? Do you like Reversos?
Or maybe a Cellini?

Joearch · 31 August 2016, 10:21 AM

Alternative materials is worthy of consideration. I have been enjoying this one a great deal.

Ruud Van Driver · 31 August 2016, 10:23 AM

All your dials are either black or white, so something with a different colour dial. As you say, TT Sub blue dial would sit well. Also think about a YM blue, a Sub LVc or D-Blue.

Nice problem to have, good luck

Very nice collection! Add some more color. The 116613 LB would be a great choice. Or maybe a vintage 1675.

GFONG · 31 August 2016, 10:36 AM

It is time to consider the PM model...

japenney · 31 August 2016, 10:50 AM

I tend to agree with your TT sub idea. Two tone and blue dial will make it unique in your collection. I would upgrade the black bay to a hulk, upgrade 114060 to sd4k, get rid of the omega diver it's redundant, get rid of anything in the bottom right quadrant too. Good luck.

DeeTee · 31 August 2016, 10:52 AM

If your going SS then Hulk no question

Or shrink the collection and get a full PM piece

red1108nyc · 31 August 2016, 11:58 AM

I would recommend any of these 3 (add some color):

TheVTCGuy · 31 August 2016, 12:02 PM

Wow, great collection, i congratulate you

I really like the Seiko 6139
