What goes in the 5th spot?
As you can probably tell, with the exception of my G-Shock, I like GADAish watches without rotating bezels or complications (other than date). I also prefer accurate movements that are at least somewhat exclusive.
I was thinking something along the lines of SBGA491, Tudor Royal 41 (if they finally fit it w/ Kenissi movement), or Tudor 31/36/39/41 (if they add a date complication). Thoughts? Other options?
Thanks.

Tudor North Flag or Royal would be my choices
I think perhaps something with numbers on the dial would be a bit different - to my taste something from IWC Pilot range - would fit in with GADA, water resistance, robust, versatile and very good accuracy (except perhaps older Big Pilots) exclusivity of movements perhaps a little more challenging - which got me thinking maybe Nomos with their Neomatic movement - possibly as likely fully in-house / exclusive as you can get for the money. Club Sport and Ahoi ranges both tick the boxes on GADA qualities too.
Quality collection - GShock included!
Definite shout for a GS Spring Drive but, if you have to have the date, I prefer the likes of Lake Suwa and White Birch without the power meter on the dial. I wasn’t fussed about the date and went for this which is manual wind and so thinner too.
I'm not creative enough to come up w/ something witty. I tried this one thinking it wouldn't work, but they let me have it, much to my surprise!

I've never tried on Nomos - perhaps I should

Beautiful, but I do prefer to have a date, as I tend to use that complication quite often.
