While you may claim it's "all over the place", I think each piece has something "special" about it - and that makes the selection process more, hmm, challenging, but in a good way.
I would also pick Alexander as first choice, for two reasons:
* Something that stands out from your nice collection.
* I have seen it in person (and this is very important for me) and I like it. Though, I prefer the regulator, but the size at 43mm has held me back.
Happy hunting!

I don't think your collection is all over the place either. Apart from those who buy only one brand or "theme" of watches, most of us have collections that are a bit of everything (like mine).
Of your choices, I'd go for the Benarus
1) the most appealing to me
2) one can't have too many divers
3) blue dial definitely fills a hole
4) as you note, the cheapest on your list (leaving room for one more, perhaps??).

Thanks guys. I'm pretty comfortable with what I have now, but it's heavy on affordables. I'd like to kick it up a notch. The goal is one watch, regardless of price. It's funny depending on the day, any one of these four will be in the lead. Do you guys have anything else I should look at?

Yup, no reason to buy this except pure lust. Probably the leading contender even though it would just squish right in.
The hedonist part of my personality says a Sinn fills plenty of holes. Even if you don't think there is one, a Sinn will make a hole and fill it. Reason often talks you out of what you really want. Give in to your lust. You know you want to.

Of your options (none of which seems to fulfil the criteria in your text!) I like the Sinn the most. However, I'm going to Iceland in Feb so if you want me to pick up the 1941 then PayPal me some cash and I shall!

Haha!! Thanks but...Except for the Sinn (which I realized has a black bezel, I don't have one of those....) and the Frisland (which really doesn't fulfill anything other than a trip to Iceland...I fear I would spend much more on a different watch when I got there). The rest meet some of the criteria. I'm not looking for one watch to fill them all, those are just a couple of holes I'd like to fill.
