boursachi, I can get PO for about 500Euros more then IWC
moabite thanks for your comment, option 5 and 6 are extra option because still I am thinking about them. I never was fan of Aquatimer till I went with my mate to buy one, then I started to like that watch
About Omega I still think that when new Bond movie will be release Omega will make some nice edition of Planet ocean better then this silly Seamaster that they provide this year. So that another reason why I shouldn't buy Omega in nearest future
Still no tudor or Breitling fans over here?

gr1zly, sorry to be that guy that points out the obvious but while they are nice watches, 4-6 are not diving watches. You mentioned that a diving watch is what is what you're aiming for so I would recommend eliminating those from your search. Also, looking at your current list, it appears a proper diving watch would be a nice addition to round out your collection.
I have number 2 so that would be my suggestion. When making the decision to purchase my Aquatimer, I had narrowed my search down to just it and the Planet Ocean. After doing extensive research on the brands I felt that IWC was a better match for me. Not sure of the pricing in Poland but when I purchased around a year ago, the IWC on bracelet was about $1k more than the PO even with about a 25% AD discount.
It's a great everyday watch that you can be very comfortable wearing in the water.

Anyone have thoughts on what would be a good next watch, my modest collection as folows:
- Rolex Seadweller
- Tag Heur Carrera (Black face chrono on rubber delployant)
- Omega Speedmaster
- Misc. Seikos, G-Shocks, etc.
Thinking either
- PAM, but I don't know ref numbers off by heart. I like the base SS with sandwich dial and Subdial, does that exist? Anyone know the ref?
- IWC Top Gun (double chrono, 46mm edition)
- IWC Portuguese
As I have a couple of sportier type watches already I'm looking for something that could be considered slightly dressier (obviously not the top gun), hence the Portuguese and PAM thoughts.
If anyone had any other suggestions in the same range (pre-owned), I'd love to hear 'em. Thanks.
