I went 0 to a 100 real quick...

It’s been a great year. From zero watches to two beautiful pieces - first an Omega Planet Ocean, followed by a Submariner 16610.

I wanted your advice on which one to get next. This will be my last piece. Anything after this will require me to flip others. I have come down to the following three options:

1. Submariner 116610LV
2. Submariner 116613
3. SS Daytona - pre-ceramic bezel

I’m looking at this from a future reselling value as well. i appreciate your help. I have attached some picture of me with my precious’.

Got enough divers (beautiful watches btw). I'd head for the Daytona. Good idea to slow down and enjoy what you got.

Pretty easy choice...116520 Daytona. Look for the best kit and price you can find!!! SS seems to appreciate the most.

Wearing my PO tonight for Halloween!!! It's a beautiful watch!!!

Not a Daytona fan, but big LB fan. Go for the blue and GOLD!

Nice pair, I still love my PO 2500. As for what's next, Daytona all the way. Only question is white or black dial. Enjoy!

You have a very large watch with the PO. The 5 digit Sub is small, light, and classic looking. The 116520 will wear like your 16610, or slightly smaller. Seems like you like large watches, so I'm not sure you'll like the Daytona.

The LV may be a fit in-between the others and give you lots of modern technology such as the Glidelock and Ceramic. The question I'd ask myself if I was you would be am I ok with a collection full of dive watches. If the answer is yes, get the LV. If you want a chronograph, get the Cosmograph.

This. You may consider the GMT or DateJust.

Daytona would add more versatility but the LVC is my personal favorite of the three. Not too similar to your 5 digit Sub either.

I would add the LV-C. If you then find you have too many divers, I would then flip the PO for something else.

Why would you get a daytona, they are already at 12-14-15k depending on year and condition.

Easy to resell but I don't think you will make any money on them or just a few hundred.
