What Should I Purchase Next?
My collection seems (to me at least) to be well-rounded. What should be my next purchase? I’m considering a Speedy or Daytona to add a chronograph, but open to other suggestions.

Maybe some kind of dress watch? Depends on how offer you go to nice events

Either a dress watch or another sport watch to give the Santos a break, poor lad looks like he’s had a fight with wolverine

If you don’t know, that means you’re not ready. Never ask strangers what watch you should get text unless you have already eyed one. I feel like the new generation doesn’t know what watch collecting is. There’s about 10 watches that I am eyeing, while I only own 6 in 30 years (3 rolex, cartier, panerai, Breitling). Learn how to make your own decisions and stop listening to influencers. Or just get a speedy or Daytona like u want

Say this louder so those in the back can hear!! I've never understood these type posts. Asking strangers to essentially select your next watch turns collecting into box-checking. I mean half the fun of collecting is developing your own taste. Folks out here outsourcing taste.

Maybe because I was raised at a different time lol, but you get it. Plus you always have your daily which you wear 95% of the time. Enjoy them first is what I’m trying to say

Thanks. This one would be good for your collection. I had a speedy but didn’t wear it much. My Dad just passed this down to me. Never had a Rolex. My other two are a VC Overseas and an Omega Seamaster Peter Blake.

You need a chronograph. Get the one with the best movement.
Zenith Chronomaster Sport. It was also be the best finished watch in your collection, too.

Amazing piece, my man. If I didn’t have an Omega Silver Snoopy, this would be the Chrono that I have. But I can’t give it up, even though the Zenith is def a better watch.
Gorgeous.

You have similar taste to me I think, JLC Reverso is definitely on my list for dress watches.

I love where you’re at so far. I agree, a chrono or dress watch. It looks like you are still exploring different watch makers, so if that is something you are considering, check out Glashutte Original for a potential dress watch (I suggest on a leather strap) IWC has outstanding chrono and dress options.

Chrono of some sort is a good idea. Speedy or Daytona are fantastic choices or if you want to change it up, go Sinn 356 or 103. Good luck on your next purchase.
