I think your collection is awesome thus far. Doesn't "need" anything necessarily, but a Datejust (has to be fluted/jubilee) is such a classic it's always a good choice. And it comes in so many color choices you can add a dial you don't have with any other model. That's what I did with the Slate dial...

I’m more of a smooth bezel guy. Love my oyster bracelet but would like to try a Jubilee. Nice Chebbie.
Watch Analog watch Photograph Clock Font

I think OP would have a hard time going wrong with an IWC.

JLC Reverso many to choose from size to dial color and complication. The Hamilton Khaki Auto gives you a field/pilot watch at a great bang for the buck.

If you have to ask the question then you're buying for the sake of it. Stop thinking of it as a 'collection' and more a box with watches in that you really like. Don't buy another until you come across something you like. Or get this.

While you decide on the two “good watches” get a G-Shock

My choice would be (it was) the GW-5000U

Watch Hand Rectangle Gadget Watch accessory


If you’re not into G-Shock’s, here it is an article that reflects why this is somewhat special in the G-Shock’s world

Invicta and Pagani Design seems like the best choices here.

What the hell is this? Ask me to "finish" this collection....

Then NOT tell me how big the box is?????

What the hell bro. How should I know how many pieces I should be getting?

Assuming it will be a collection of 6 with 2 vacancies, it's going to be Zenith Chronometer Sport, then save for a Lange 1 rose gold

If it's going to be a collection of 7 (because 1 watch will be either on the wrist or on the desk at all times), further add either a H Moser Pioneer red, or Rolex OP rhodium, or Green GO PML
Reasoning: after the first 6, you kind of have most bases covered except moonphase. You are then safe to start playing with "fun colors", hence these suggestions

Y’all are going to mess around and make me buy one of those blue omega seamasters 🤬😂 They are growing on me fast.
As for the collection, I like the Navitimer suggestion someone made.
Nice set of watches you have there already. Enjoy!

It's all a bit soft hands currently... Would add one for adventure... A field watch, Vostok, etc. Also something fun/funky like a Rado Diastar etc.
To start with, I'll get rid of one of the Seamasters for a Rolex. The 3 (the Rolex, the Omega, and the Cartier) together will form the core, or basis, of the collection. Watches you can just wear the heck out of.

Then you'll need something that's not mid-level luxury, that Brequet is one of them, so 2/3 more, depending on whether you want 6/7 to finish off the collection.

Brands to consider - Girard Perregaux, VC, Glashutte Original, Lange...the list goes on.

I'd add a chronograph and GMT. There're the Omega Speedmaster and Longines Spirit Zulu to keep it within the Swatch family 😉

Great collection! I’d go gmt, field or pilot watch, and something unexpected. I’d also maybe think about varying country of origin. Sinn or Meistersinger and then something British maybe. Idk. You’ve got a good color balance. I have a small collection as well and I want to be very specific about what I buy but also buy what I like and be somewhat spontaneous
Yeah I’d go with DJ 41 Rhodium & a PAM Flyback
