Iconic models like the Rolex Submariner and Omega Seamaster add historical significance and prestige. ### Ideas for Improvement 1. **Add a Dress Watch**: Introduce a formal watch to enhance versatility.

The **Oris Divers Sixty-Five Bronze** offers a distinctive look and complements the collection's theme. 3. **Expand Complications**: Add a watch with advanced complications, such as a chronograph. The **Longines Master Collection Chronograph** provides additional functionality and sophistication. ### Downsizing Advice Consider removing the **Seiko Prospex Marine Master Tuna SBBN035**.
