Next Rolex

Hey everyone,

Debating on a few different models for my second Rolex. Currently own Explorer II (16570-polar), Breitling Avenger II, Omega SMP quartz blue , and an Omega Speedmaster Triple Date.

I'll likely purchase from a trusted seller within the forums for this purchase. The choices are: Hulk, black datejust II with the wg fluted bezel, Sd4K pre-cyclops, and possibly a plain black subC or black GMT master II

The least likely of the choices would probably be the DJII, as it seems a bit too dressy/bling for my tastes, and the black GMT II, since I already own the 16570.

Any insight greatly appreciated.

Below are some photos of my current lineup.

I'd go with the GMT as it looks like you've got all the other bases covered.

Thanks for the replies! I think I'm leaning slightly more towards the LVc as it's quite different from my current rotation.

Regarding the GMT recommendation: I love my 16570, but I'm thinking a second watch with the GMT complication might be a bit overkill for my needs. I only travel 10 or so times per year, and utilize the gmt fx about half of those trips. I think the GMT would fit in my collection at some point, I'm just not sure if it makes sense as my next purchase.

I would agree with you Rcd, the LVc would compliment your collection nicely and is completely different to what you already have.

Get it and enjoy it.
