blue dial rolex?
I plan on picking up a ss blue dial rolex to add to my ss subc and daytona black dial, and I will be using my m serial 16610lv to fund most or all of it. (tell me if that is dumb also, I just never wear it with the subc) Ive had a handful of black dial rolex's in the past, milgauss, gmt2c(blnr and all black), 16610, etc. and really want a blue dial. I have tried all these on and like them but just curious of what the consensus would say.
Milgauss z blue YM blue dial datejust blue dial roman numerals or sticks OP 39 mm blue dial Thanks Also if my 16610lv just skyrocketing in value, it seems every week I check sellers are asking another $500 |

Sometimes I look at my Milguass Z blue and wonder why I purchased it but, then the sun comes out and I get the most wonderful hues of blue as the the dial and crystal interact with each other. Truly a beautiful watch.

Ok,
I agree with you, you are dumb if you get rid of the LV. The blue dial GV does not look better than my original GV. But it's your dumb call. Ps. The SubC you have, it is the 114060 right? Edward. Best blue dial.......?

Among the candidates my vote goes for DJ Roman Dial but Milgauss is also very cool

The yachtmaster 1 blue dial or the bluesy sub. With regard to the sub, it's the only dial that I would choose the two tone over the full gold. I think the blue on the yellow gold with the ss is just a better colour combo for me than the all gold.

Ummm..
I would keep the LV. You said yourself it seems to be going up and up in price. You can pick up a new or slightly used blue dial 39 OP for $4500 + or so. Which would be my choice for a gorgeous blue addition. Rolex does as was mentioned above do blue really well. |

I'm not typically a fan of the LVC but your 50th Anniv LV is a special one.I'd keep that , you said you have a black dial Daytona so that takes care of your SS black dial need... Trade the SubC for a nice Sunburst blue dialBluesy... Best combo all around... IMHO you might get bored with a DJ... Or Milgauss for that matter... Here's a pic for enabling... |

I echo those who have said not to sell the LV. I just wouldn't.
If you want a blue dial, flip the Subc for a bluesy, problem solved. |

If it's just Blue you want keep the LV and pick up a 36 OP Blue dial they're very reasonable.
