I don´t think there´s any redundancy here. Two watches from the same family, but really quite different. And that 14060 is a beautiful classic...!

But it’s your money, and you do as you wish. If we all thought the same, the world would be a very dull place
Absolutely. Why not sell one and choose another model for some variety.

Nothing wrong with redundancy. I am with firearms as in 2 is 1 and 1 is none mentality.

I can understand people appreciate guidance and sometimes want a gut check. However, assuming you are authorized to spend the currency used to acquire the watch, the only opinion that matters is yours. If you are buying a timepiece of this monetary magnitude to please others, then there are things one needs to work through that most on the forum cannot help with.

I’d argue that if you have 6 or 9 of the same watch, having someone in the outside as a voice of reason is probably a good thing.

lol I do t have a pic handy but I currently own two contemporary DJs that are identical save for dial color; and one of the dials matches a (nearly) identical OP. One is already promised to a kiddo. The other might one day need service or go to the other kiddo?? Better to have a spare. Cheers to redundancy

Hmmm, I have 12 Sea-Dwellers currently, different references I suppose, but half of those are triple 6's!

Redundancy...

Hi my name is Brad and I'm an addict too. I have it under control though. I only have 3 Daytonas.
