I thought you were set before adding the speedy. People with larger collections have options. For example I have a BLNR and a BLRO... there isnt any occasion that I can imagine where 1 is a better fit. But I like having the option to choose... I have the blro on jubilee and the blnr on a sub bracelet - 1 feels more casual and the other feels more "special" - but they both serve the same exact purpose/occasion. Just nice to have options sometimes. And sometimes its nice to not have to think about anything and have a specific watch for a specific occasion.

That's an interesting take, thank you! I must admit I'm a bit struggling to find the "right" use case for the Speedmaster. It's very clear for the Rolex (daily sports watch) and the Lange (dress watch), not so much for the Omega. I currently view it as something in between the two in terms of "dressyness" when I wear it on the black leather strap (it looks particularly good and classy with a white shirt for instance).
