Consolidated a Daytona, Snoopy and Pepsi into into these two

Had a Daytona 126500ln Black, Snoopy and Pepsi. Yes the Pepsi and Snoopy have a lot of hype but I ended up wearing the the Daytona much more. Consolidated the Snoopy and Pepsi into a brand new 126500ln White plus some cash back to me…I guess you like what you like once the hype wears off

Congrats but I think you’ll miss the BLRO in time

Can always pick up another BLRO, especially as they’ll flood the market all those loons hoping it would be discontinued ..
You have two stunning Daytonas there, congrats from this cat ..

Wow…. While I disagree with your decision as I think the pair of Snoopy and BLRO are better than a single 126500, congratulations on both your Daytona.

Yep
Nothing says “flooding the market” like Rolex!

I read the title before I clicked on it and was trying to think what on earth I would swap those three for. I was never going to guess this!

I would have never done that, but your money and your collection. If you are happy that is truly all that matters. I'm more for diversity in a collection (movements, brands, functions) but different strokes for differents folks.

If you're a Daytona guy then fair enough, not for me, unless in PM.

What a pair! I think getting the watch you ACTUALLY wear is worth more than any diversification or value proposition.

You’ll miss the Pepsi eventually once you realise you’ve paid that much for essentially a white dial

Congrats! I love my Daytonas! You might miss your Pepsi. As much as I love my Daytonas, I do love the classic Rolex divers and GMT's for a change of pace.
