·Very nice.
I would keep anything you like and wear, get rid of anything you don’t. Simple as that 😀

·I'd suggest a dress watch would complete the collection...

·Get rid of the Breitling and the white speedmaster auto and save a bit, then get a tritium Speedmaster professional then a tritium rolex 16710 GMT... that way you have 2 classic divers, 2 omegas, 2 Rolex, 2 chronos and a GMT...

·This is only the 24th use of "burgeoning" on OF. Congrats!
But seriously, it looks like you have three divers out of five total watches, which may be a little unbalanced.

·If you didn't want to sell any, I would be more than happy tp look after whichever you didn't have room for. I would even pay the postage to get it or them here. I have a nice safe they could sit in and I promise to keep them wound and looked after well. I would even wear them on occasions to keep them feeling loved.

·Keep the speedy auto. Stay with the resistance. We will not be bullied by the moon or the pros. I am grateful I bought a mundane speedy rather than a pro

The speedy auto was my first ever purchase of a decent watch many years ago...too much history to part with it!

·That’s a nice collection. Me, I’d probably ditch the breitling as it serves the same purpose as the sub. I’d also probably exchange the speedy for the new speedy pro. As a replacement for the breitling and the white dialed speedy, I’d add something like an aqua Terra with white dial on rubber strap.

none of the them serve a purpose really do they? Obviously it’s a matter of personal taste, but the Breitling, to me, is the most good looking of the five.

·Absolutely - all personal taste. That’s what is great about this.
Seriously, the Breitling is easily the best looking. Interesting no-one has mentioned the Cuervo Y Sobrinos.

·It's all personal taste, but since you asked... the Cuervo Y Sobrinos is my least favorite: I don't like the mix of Roman and Arabic numbers, and the dial is very busy. I would also part with the speedy automatic, as I don't like the colours, and in addition I'm a traditionalist & a speedy should be wound. Instead, consider a gold dress watch (thin & simple) and a GMT.
