I guess since I owned two 5711's and a 5167r, I know what the price should "feel" like. And right now they do not feel right.
But I have also noticed prices dropping a little. Be interesting to see if the trend "hopefully" continues.
Thanks for the feedback though, 116519LN at retail is pretty solid right now, not to mention it is a watch I love. Most greys are selling a tad over retail at the moment for BNIB.
5711r and 5712 are down £10-12K from summer peaks here so yes keep an eye out.

+997! I have SS white and black and the WG. The SS White dial is now my wife’s and the black may go bye bye. The 116519LN is the best by far hands down.

If you like the oysterflex, I would go for the new yachtmaster personally!

Nope! At one point my five watch collection included four Daytonas and I loved it.

How about the fact that you have the same design shirt but in a different color...
I don't think you need to have two upper bodies for that...

Owned the RG YM and and a few months back, I thought I wanted the new 42 WG YM, until I tried it on ... I was too big for my wrist and not comfortable for me personally.
Plus the look kinda fell flat on my eyes. Actually like the RG version here better.
I did own the RG Daytona on OF, and in this case (pun intended), I prefer WG.

In this case I’d say no. You’ve got three Daytona’s sure, but they’re all very different pieces. Go for it.

I debate getting a RG one to add to my 116500 and do not think I could even do that. So yeah, too many.

I think there should be a limit of 2 Daytona per person. This way there would not be a shortage and everyone that wanted one could be happy
Did I mention I am a Bernie Sanders supporter

Nope! Have both ceramic SS and a TT. They are great references. How many you own is only up to you!

I'd say go for it. When I see pictures of collections, my favorites are generally those that are weighted in favor of a certain models. I think it's super cool to see a collection that has every current submariner or whatever the case may be.

Go for it. If you love it that is all that matters. The 116519 is a stunning piece and goes great with your collection IMHO.

I think two SS daytonas is too many, but adding the PM is nice.
