Mike, forget all the pictures you’ve ever seen from the Explorer 214270. Go out and try to find one and I swear, the moment you’ll see this beauty on your wrist you’re sold. It’s very hard to capture the beauty of this watch on pictures but it’s the perfect piece for your three watch collection. The BB58 is a very nice watch, also the SMP but don’t make any mistake you gonna regret someday when you see the 214270 on another wrist. Trust me!
It’s just the evening lights. 😉
The 16570 would be my second recommendation for the TO. It’s another beauty and versatile watch.
As you’ve mentioned a Speedy but looking for smaller sizes, did you ever consider the FOIS? It’s just 39mm and also a beautiful chrono.
Here’s my CK2998 and it’s literally the same watch just in blue.

I own quite a few of the references you are considering or that have been recommended I would go with the 214270 because of the versatility it affords a small collection. While I like the thought of a Speedy, I think with two Omegas it would be nice to diversify your collection.
BB58 -- I really like the look of this watch but am disappointed by the execution. Specifically there is no half link for the bracelet and only three notches of adjustment in the clasp. I personally believe this is to differentiate Tudor from Rolex and their bracelet/clasp combination. I even tried adding the easylink from my Explorer to see if that would work, but the screws are different widths. I have had the BB58 less than 3 weeks but am considering selling it already because the bracelet does not fit me well.
