Sell the BLNR. You have a more modern GMT with the BLRO.

Agree with this. The YM is going to lose the popularity contest but it's a gorgeous watch and breaks things up. A keeper. Blue, green and black dial plus whatever you decide on the RG. Overall, think you're making a great move for the collection and keeping it at 4 that you wear.

Your collection is the same as 90% on people here.
Its just all the hyped models. To be brutally honest flip them all and have some individuality. Start from scratch and buy watches that actually mean something or ones you really really like. I always laugh when you see ppl "I'm a collector" and ALL their watches are just the hyped ones. LOL |

I would sell the BLNR for two reasons: it is similar to one of your other watches, and you can get more money for it while the market is hot.

Well, unless I missed your intent of this post, if you want to get down to three and you're planning on adding a Daytona, then you'll need to get rid of two watches.
I would ditch the BLNR and the YM, taking a lot of the sting out of the OF Daytona purchase and leaving you with a very nice, balanced collection. |

This would be an easy one for me. Yachtmaster for sure.
I would probably sell the YM and BLNR and combine the funds into a RG YM on oyster flex. That is a beautiful watch and would look great next to the green sub and blro. |

The fact that they are "hyped" is not a random occurrence or a marketing scheme by Rolex. They are "hyped" because thy are popular and they are popular because they are desirable. You should always get what you like but don't get some obscure reference that is not hyped just to be different. As far as the OP's original question, I would drop the YM and get a white dial to complement your collection. The YM should yield enough to get an Explorer II Polar. My 2 cents but I love the Polar.

i like the yatchmaster the least, but you have another GMT, that makes it a tough decision to make......flip the one you like the least.

I would consider selling the BLRO as it is an 'it watch' that will sell well for a time, the BLNR is a nicer piece IMO. I also prefer Oyster bracelet to Jubilee. Maybe think about what clothes colours you tend to wear most and which watches match best?

I'd let the yacht master go simply because I prefer the others over it.
It is still a gorgeous watch though Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

Let 1 GMT go, one is enough IMO.

Sell a GMT and Yachtmaster. Use profit from GMT to offset loss on Yachtmaster.
You should at least break even, maybe even come out a little ahead. Last edited by csj; 24 January 2020 at 11:42 PM.. Reason: Added content |
