It includes prestigious brands like Rolex and JLC, known for their strong heritage and market presence. The collection covers a wide range of use cases, from formal to sport, making it suitable for various occasions. ### Ideas for Improvement 1. **Enhance Material Variety**: Introduce a watch with rare materials like titanium or ceramic to elevate the Material Metric. Example: Omega Seamaster Diver 300M (Price: ~$5,000). 2. **Add Advanced Complications**: Incorporate a watch with a perpetual calendar or moonphase to boost the Complications Metric. Example: Longines Master Collection Moonphase (Price: ~$3,000). 3. **Increase Rarity**: Add a limited edition or unique piece to enhance the Rarity Metric. Example: Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Limited Edition (Price: ~$2,500). ### Downsizing Advice Consider removing the Citizen Promaster Marine Automatic, as it overlaps with the Seiko Prospex in style and function.
