What’s the ideal next one?

What should follow Wimbledon, Starbucks, Batman and Pepsi?

BTW, new to the forum and first post.

You should add a Submariner to your collection. Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the feedback. Since anything over 41mm dial looks too big on my wrist I hesitate to go for Sky-dweller, Deepsea and Sea-dweller. Given that, after DJ, Sub ( Starbucks - green bezel) and two GMTs, Daytona and DayDate makes logical sense.

How long is a typical wait for SS Daytona after GMTs assuming you have a good relations with AD?

Welcome!! A polar Explorer 2 to give you a white dial?

Another option is a James Cameron if you have the wrist for it….dial is amazing in person.

Congrats on an already great collection!

Don’t have the wrist for James Cameron.

Absolutely a celebration dial or Stella inspired dials would be great addition to the collection.
Thanks

By the title, I was going to say, "a contrasting piece to the first". Then I read, "what should follow a Wimbledon". With my logic, it could be anything. I'd probably add a Sub, the no-date version.

Some time for you to wear and reflect on what's working for you, or what's not.

Daytona or a Day Date. Whatever it is, time for a gold piece.

Hot take, I think your next watch should be a speedmaster professional. Imo you have the best models that Rolex has to offer, but are missing a nice chronograph in the collection.

I know I am different than probably 99% of others here, but I found the Daytona so incredibly underwhelming and so busy on the dial. That's why I much prefer the speedmaster as the chronograph in my collection - I'm surprised how much I love it even alongside Rolex.

If you are wanting to stay with Rolex, however, I think a rose gold yachtmaster oyster flex is the way to go.

Actually, I do have a Speedmaster Professional and it sees the most time among the watches in rotation. Beautiful and easy to wear watch. Don’t know if it will change if I get a Daytona.
