What to add to the collection?

I already have several SS sports Rolex watches. I would like to add the following, option 1 or option 2. Can’t have them all, too much $$$$. Which would u go with? Option 1 is 3 watches while Option 2 is 2 watches. I have a 7.5” wrist so I’m concerned the Daytona will look too small.

Option 1




Option 2

You're going to pay grey prices? I would look at something different for that amount.

As someone who has a 7.375 wrist, I would suggest the 42mm watches. Sky Dweller and ExplorerII. The Daytona will look like a ladies watch on your wrist.

Yep, both 42’s for sure.

I was kinda thinking the same. I'm of the belief that the Daytona looks fine with larger wrists, but with the watches you have, I think the Sky and the Polar would fit in best. Just my two cents.

At least one watch from both options is next to impossible to get at retail. The daytonaC more than the blro, although th blro is near unobtainium. What a exactly do you mean you would hold out for msrp?
