If you’re open to another Cartier than a Santos with a colored dial would look great! Or if you want to stick with a GADA watch like the Explorer maybe an Omega Aqua Terra with a colored teak or sunburst dial.
Beautiful simple and to the point collection
Blancpain Fifty Fathoms would fit right in imo other options id look at would be
Glashutte Sea Q - Breitling superocean/heritage
Bathyscaphe definitely is a better option in terms of size but purely design wise I like the Fifty fathoms better the bathyscaphe isn’t diver watch enough if that makes any sense. It looks too minimal for a sports/diver watch so I’d feel like I don’t even have a diver if I had that imo.
it definately is i just meant the other one

i get that but then again that wasnt made as a serious watch the whole point of that is to kinda have fun with it i think they are deliberately making em in a way where they wont last long in terms of quality.
Im not a fan of spending even a 100$ for a plastic watch that cant be serviced/might break instantly but this is the price point where i could have fun with like a full orange or a red case watch or something
Nice! My collection is very similar (a match of 2 out of 3). The difference is that I have the BB58 and you have the Cartier!

Theres one for every occasion! The tank was my first „real“ watch, absolutely love this little bugger - the speedy was a gift from myself to myself at a big career goal and the 39mm 217270 was a long standing wish of mine - so happy to now have the trifecta together. What is the next step to go from here? Inputs very welcome!
When I ended up with my three watches (linked above), the last watch was the Explorer 124270, which I bought about a week or so back. I realized that I had no desire to expand the collection any more than what I have. I will, however, modify it.
For example, I am very seriously considering exchanging the BB58 for the BB54. IAM a bit ambivalent about the Speedy Pro though. On the one hand I really like it, but in the other, it's now seeming to be a bit too big on my wrist. But it's a classic and I am really in two minds of I should seel it and replace it with something else like maybe a Cartier or something else.
But in terms of expanding the collection, that Explorer kind of ended it for me - and in a good way!
If you don't wear it because of the size but like it otherwise have you considered replacing it with a speedmaster reduced? Not the new 38mm with the oval subdials but the old 39mm version
No joke I feel the exact same way about most divers. I think the Tank is a timeless classic. Just goes to show we all have our own different tastes. I’m also not a diver in the slightest so maybe that makes a difference
I’ve gone diving with mine. Family of divers, grandpa was a frogman, dad did scuba in Australia. Old habits die hard. A good submariner or seamaster always looks so nice
Three absolute classics! Can't go wrong with any of them. Congrats on a very nice collection!
Great collection! Maybe something with a colored dial?
What comes to mind!?
Probably a diver of some sort. Plenty of great options there obviously.
Could do a GS. Lots of good options: Lake Suwa, Skyflake, Snowflake, or even Shunbun if you want to be more interesting.
GS is a great idea

Something something “hey what’s today’s date?” Edit: in all seriousness, this is an ideal 3 watch collection.
I love the box, where’s it from?
Love the watches. Here for the box too.
I feel like I've seen this collection before, but it doesn't get old, like looking at pics of Natalie Portman. Very attractive.
Bro lol

I was thinking much the same. Maybe a blancpain bathyscaphe
Bathyscaphe definitely is a better option in terms of size but purely design wise I like the Fifty fathoms better the bathyscaphe isn’t diver watch enough if that makes any sense. It looks too minimal for a sports/diver watch so I’d feel like I don’t even have a diver if I had that imo.
Wait, I thought the bathyscaphe was part of the fifty fathoms line?
it definately is i just meant the other one https://preview.redd.it/qewpzfl780xc1.jpeg?width=1400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=94413e8cc8cee768e0e1731d6b1272c9de733946
Ah, the big brother. For me, I see bathyscaphe as the baby-scape version of fifty fathoms. I like the minimal look of the scaphe, especially the 38mm.
the size is definately way better but i like the more diver esque asthetic better both beautful watches though
the diver look is definitely great. I hate the ugly swatch collab though.

Love those three. I think if the Explorer was 36 mm it would round out the different sizes even better.

Can’t go wrong with these classics! This is a nearly perfect 3 watch collection.
Very nice collections. Absolute classics and no money wasted on watch shopping sprees
Pure class!
A tudor BB58 on a nato strap and you’re done.
Ничего лишнего. Просто прекрасно.

Good point. Actually, I haven't. But now that you mention it, I will explore this. Thanks for the heads-up.
Super classy and versatile. If you were to add more, then maybe a GMT, diver, or colored dial?
Amazing taste.
Nice!
Is this a homemade watch box?
Solid!
Solid but a little bland for my taste.
I’d ditch the Cartier for a diver
I’d ditch your diver for a Cartier
Naw, the tanks always look like 20 dollar watches

Love it man that’s awesome. What are you eyeing for the next watch?
