I bought those two out the gates. Love them both. Now I'm thinking about trading them and going for a PM piece. Even with a WG blue sub, the sunburst is hard to let go of.

They compliment each other so well and give you the best of both worlds, actually.

For me, once you go with that great blue dial, there is no sense in wearing the black one. That is unless it is your only watch, then keep both and enjoy life!

Now for a little enabling!

It's an exciting place to be owning both... They work so well off each other and I'll be choosing my watch based on how I feel on the day and what I'm wearing :)

It's always good to have a second back up watch!

Great choice. If you can swing the $ of having both then feel them both out and if you don't ever wear one, flip it.

Unless you are like me and it is your first Rolex then you might as well just plan on keeping that one.

The TT seems to 'wow' people more.

If the TT appeals to you then you should go for it and trade the SS.
