Well, well, well ... I see where you're headed now

Personally I'm not a huge fan of the Daytona (with no offence meant to those who own them). It just wears too small for my liking.

I'd stay put and keep the trio you have

The only Daytona I'd care to own is the white 500. If it were me, I'd trade the BLNR for a 16710, trade the Hulk for a 16610LV, and trade that swollen one on the right for a white Daytona 500 (or the new Exp I if you didn't want to wait). Then I'd be done for good.

You now have three limited production watches. The Daytona, while very desirable, is not a limited production watch. I would keep what you have now and supplement (not replace) later.

To be honest, I wouldn't flip the LV for a Daytona.

I would, however, add a D500 to the mix as soon as I could get my hands on one.

Enjoy the LV, it's a great watch!
Definitely solid advice from Larry!! Spot on exactly what I would do too

I would flip the LV for the daytona. It will give you more variety in your collection, and I just can't warm up to the green. Its a bit much.

Seems like you love the deep sea - but my opinion of the best ss trio is gmt / sub / Daytona. This is partly informed by ruling out the deep sea based on my wrist size.

Nobody will agree with me on this, but I would ditch the DSSD and get the Daytona. I wore the D Blue for a couple weeks to try it out a few months ago and just couldn't get over the fact that it looks like it's a fake or had aftermarket work done to it. Just doesn't feel right to me.

Why do you say nobody will agree with you? I already recommended the same thing a few posts up. Never been a fan of the D Blue.

Yea. They say that the D-blue, like the milgauss, is a very polarizing watch. You either love it or you hate it. I am in the love category. And it was also the hardest of all the watches to find by far and I also find that interesting.
