My current line-up is BLNR, LVc, and PAM 911. There is a tiny chance that my name will get called for a Daytona C in the next few months and I can only keep 3 watches. And even if I dont get the call, I figured a poll would be fun anyway

I go back and forth on whether it would be fun to keep a Panerai in the mix to have some variety (and straps!) or go with the Rolex land, sea, air trio because of the current shortage on Rolex SS pieces and how hard it may be to re-acquire them.

As of now I'm going between option 1 and 2 because I've got a bit of history with my BLNR. Which option would you choose?

1. Rolex trio - BLNR, LVc, and Daytona C
2. BLNR, Daytona C, and PAM 911 (or any PAM of your choice)
3. LVc, Daytona C, and PAM 911 ( or any PAM of your choice)

Option 1 for sure. Great trio

First option!

Hulk + Daytona C has to be your base. Then whether you prefer Pam or BLNR is up to you.
Later I would swap it ( BLNR or Pam 911) for Pepsi .
Perfect trio

Option 2 my choice. Good luck

ASW1 · 3 January 2019, 03:38 AM

A variation of option 3.

Keep LVc. Get the Daytona and flip the 911 for a PAM233.

You've got the LV for green, and the 911 underneath it's skirts is a pretty basic PAM. The 233 has it all and a lot easier to change straps. Far more upmarket in every respect technically and asthetically IMO.

Enjoy...

Choice 3 without a doubt.

If you’re worried about too much green (even if LVc and 911 are quite different), 911 for a 233 could work. But so could a 005, 111 or 000 if you don’t want to invest in a 233. They all are 24 lugs, so you’d get to keep your straps.

I voted choice 3 but I wouldn't buy another Rolex and would sell the two you have. Of course, that's my personal bias. Good problems to have.

PAM 233 is the one Panerai I would replace my 911 with. I used to own a 233 and miss it. That was a really fun watch with a lot of character.

#2.

BLNR + DaytonaC + PAM736 (690/932...).

BNA/LION · 4 January 2019, 07:57 AM

All Look Great!

Greg75 · 4 January 2019, 12:52 PM

Option 3. All great watches, but the BLNR is going for so much more now than I personally value it on the used market that I would have to flip it. Plus it is nice to have a Panerai or at least one non-Rolex in the mix.

LVc, non-ceramic Daytona and 233.

All Rolex is the way I would go.
