Advice for trio

Hi guys. I bought my first rolex 116610LN in 2014. Second one came in 2018 as PM DD 40 RG. I am planing to buy third one this year.

What do you think will fit to my current collection?

I have a good relationship with my AD and he is gonna help me to find SS sports models which are hard to find those days?

I would get either a pepsi or a daytona C. I personally like the DayC more than the pepsi and the pepsi more than the sub

Dayton seems like the next logical move. Or an Air-King if you want a daily driver....or both....

The logical choices are GMT or Daytona. Would you consider two tone or precious metal?

I would get something with a GMT function. Pepsi if possible, which would not look like the Sub at a glance. The CHNR is beautiful in the metal and would also give you SS, TT and PM in one trio. My favourite GMT is the Sky Dweller, although that might be too close to that beautiful DD in looks to give you an eclectic trio. The Daytona is lovely and available in a mouth watering range of permutations. The dial (or more precisely the sub dials) are too small for my eyes. I can't make them out a lot of the time. If it was 2-3mm bigger and had a date, I'd be saving.

If it was me I wouldn’t get another Rolex. But having said that a Daytona or the new two tone rose gold GMT Master would go lovely.

Personally would love to see something like an Aquanaut in that trio! It is fun to spend other people’s money!

I would like to go with SS this time or TT rose Gmt need to check if possible to get one

Thanks everbody for advice. I already booked for pepsi but AD told me it might take a while to get it as expected. Seems like SD white dial and hulk will be the fastest delivery.

I am not very willing to get hulk for next one as i have sub c already. Purchasing Hulk might be late 2019.

I will talk to my AD to see oppurtunities once your comments

GMT would be my pick to round out that trio. Preferably BLRO.

I agree with Travis, I would get a GMT to round out the bunch - the CHNR (to give you a TT - and I think the best TT in the model line up) or the BLRO.

I think Daytona or GMT would be great as well.......
But, I am going against the grain here and suggest a Milgauss z-Blue.
Then you would have a nice trio of Green, Black and Blue face watches!

Looks like you already had your trio planned?

Nice duo! If ROlex, I would go for a Daytona next.. it'll differ a little bit from your current two... but if open, why not an Aquanaut? under the radar and would add some versatility

GMT function makes sense. A 216570 Polar would fit in nicely with your set. White dialed sport watch and something a little different.

That's quite a duo...and there's a lot of watches that would work well to round out your trio. Almost a limitless selection, really.

You've got a president bracelet and the steel oyster...how about switching things up with an oyster flex Daytona or YM? Or...a Tudor GMT/BB on leather?

Thanks guys for your comments. My first choise pepsi seems to be hard to get it soon enough at the moment due to high demand.
I want to get different dial color as i have black and olive rolex unless to have pepsi.

I will contact to my AD to get white daytona or Sd seems a good choice for me.

Gmt beer is also nice watch although it has black color.

Still confused and thinking:(

I love your duo! The RG DD with the Romans Olive dial is my favorite in a DD. That is sharp! Just out of curiosity, why does this ref have a stick for the 9 o'clock position? Other Rolex Romans dials have the "IX". I've seen this before on other DD and I always wondered why.

As for the next watch for your trio.....If your AD is gonna help you with the hard to get refs, I'd shoot for the top with a white Daytona C or a BLRO. Either one would go well in your collection imo.
