Collection advise
Hey guys thinking of moving my collection a bit, what would you guys keep and what would you move. I currently have 8 watches, the 3 bottom right belong to my wife. I want to keep only 5 but to be honest I like all of them. If I was to pick two of all them it would probably be the 44RG and 15407ST but after that I care for the rest the same. What would you guys move? Thoughts! and suggestions!???
Here is what I have: AP 44RG AP 44ti AP RO 15400 Blue AP RO 15407ST AP 42 RG Brick Rolex SKY Blue Rolex SD43 Rolex YM2 Two-Tone and my wife has: AP RO 15450 Blue Rolex DJ Blue Rolex SUB no date Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not sure I could sell any of those but IF ... I'd let go of the YM II and the 44 TI.

I would let the ti and 15400 blue go even though I like them a lot. Mainly because your favs are a must keep and I see them as redundant to the OW and RG.

I think as long as you keep the 15407 and the RG 44, the other 3 keepers could be any

How do you wear your pieces or do you wan't to use them? By the looks of it (plastic on the most expensive pieces) Im guessing they aren't being used? if it was me, keep the ones you use, if you have pieces you don't wan't to use then sell them or start using them.

Great collection but I am not a huge AP fan. It would help if you could give us the general values of the AP watches to help with what to move and what to sit on. For what you have, I would go after one or two very unique and collectable pieces if that already does not exist in your collection.

Let go of the YMII, SkyD, and AP brick (the 44RG is way cooler for me). Maybe if you decide to move a 4th piece, next on my chopping board would be the 44 Ti.

Pretty easy choice for me. Gone are the YM, Brick, and between the SD43 and SkyD, whichever you’d not use as a daily.

Nice collection, but if you are really looking to thin the herd, I'd toss;
AP 44RG Rolex SKY Blue Rolex YM2 Two-Tone Keep; AP 44ti - Sporty, has presence, but being a white metal, flies a little under the radar. AP RO 15400 Blue - Classic, understated. AP RO 15407ST - Complicated/busy, out there piece. High horological merit. AP 42 RG Brick - Here's your bling/flashy piece Rolex SD43 - Everyone needs a Rolex dive watch. |

Contrary to popular opinion, I'd keep the TT YM2. Its rather different to your other pieces and whilst I'm not generally a great Rolex fan I do think its an amazing design (I have the exact same one).
Not a fan of the 44Ti. I thought I was when it came out, but its a bit bland in comparison to other choices. |

quick update, YM2 sold!!! now it's between SKY and 44ti, I'm posting both and letting go of whatever moves first. I'm impartial to both pieces.

I’d move the ym and 44ti.
