If that Daytona were mine there is no way I'd ever let it go.

You have to do what makes you the happiest…!!!

Shawnnyang · 30 June 2014, 02:34 PM

Yes.

b5audia4 · 30 June 2014, 02:41 PM

I would - assuming you have put good mileage on your collection and now an opportunity to get your holy grail!!!

Presa canary · 30 June 2014, 02:46 PM

Pics of the watches you wanna flip, but not of the watch in question? Either way, prob not. I love the 6263, and I don't even care for daytonas... That being said, you have a really nice watch for everyday of the week. It would have to be a really rare 6263, then I wouldn't even feel all that comfortable wearing it day in day out. What am I saying? If you can't get the 6263 out of your dreams, flip away!

Old Expat Beast · 30 June 2014, 02:48 PM

Seems a bit drastic, and getting top dollar for the 5 Rolex and 1 Tudor might take a while, by which time you may have changed your mind.

powerfunk · 30 June 2014, 03:01 PM

That's a sweet collection. Blue and black choices for a diver or chrono. Gold, TT, and stainless choices. Arabic, Roman, Baton markers, square plots and regular plots to choose from. White, silver, or champagne dial choices for a dressy watch. Modern, recent, and vintage models to choose from...

You seem to have a lot of well-thought out variety, and you'd be giving that up for a gorgeous watch that isn't an all-purpose wearer. Unless you're really tired of your collection, I'd vote no.

Are you a one-watch guy? Can you pick a piece in your collection and wear it for 2 weeks? If yes, then go for it.

QueueCumber · 30 June 2014, 04:09 PM

Yes.

Lgear080 · 30 June 2014, 04:13 PM

You're going to get many answers from different people.

Are you going to sell each piece yourself?

JRolex · 30 June 2014, 04:22 PM

I wouldn't. I don't think you'll want to daily a 6263; getting rid of that collection that you've had for so long yearns for "seller's" remorse.

Viv Savage · 30 June 2014, 04:36 PM

Only if it was complete and I do mean complete. Original box, papers, booklets, service papers & hang tag. The watch must be all original too. Otherwise , you have an awesome collection.

QueueCumber · 30 June 2014, 04:45 PM

To explain why I answered yes: The 6263 is more collectible over time IMO in comparison to the pieces you would flip.

Vincent65 · 30 June 2014, 05:27 PM

You're clearly not a 'one-watch guy'… so no.

crowncollection · 30 June 2014, 06:19 PM

I would not, nice collection 👍

Andad · 30 June 2014, 06:57 PM

I had a similar opportunity a few years ago.

I passed.

I still think I made the wrong decision.

waQstar · 30 June 2014, 08:15 PM

I think the real question to ask is, a few watches I really like or 1 watch I love ?

My answer will be yes, everything in your collection can be re bought with little effort but if the 6263 you are looking at is a nice example, don't pass on it.

inspires · 30 June 2014, 09:03 PM

Do it. As the ones in your collection can easily be replaced.

Mark020 · 30 June 2014, 09:13 PM

+1. Unless there is something really unobtainium: just flip.

Fantastic read!!! Thank you for posting it, and it is right on the money about how I feel about watches. I enjoy collecting, but really envy the guys that have 1 watch for all the adventures of live acquiring battle scars to match their own!!

Michael M. · 1 July 2014, 12:18 AM

Assuming you have tried a 6263 Daytona on before, and have seen it in person, etc. I say yes. Your collection could easily be replaced, if for some reason the 6263 didn't meet your expectations. I know I love my 6263's.

Americanlife · 1 July 2014, 12:31 AM

6263, just do it

fmc000 · 1 July 2014, 12:37 AM

It seems that it is what YOU really want and that you're just waiting for some other guy to chime in and push you to the inevitable.

So, do it!

psv · 1 July 2014, 12:49 AM

I'd sell everything but that gold Datyona. Your call, of course.

QueueCumber · 1 July 2014, 12:51 AM

Which 6263 are you considering? Post a pic!!!
