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

Sell YM

Jcy90 · 24 January 2020, 10:30 AM

Nix the yacht

scombs263 · 24 January 2020, 10:31 AM

GOODBYE........ Yacht-Master 126622 40mm blue

locutus49 · 24 January 2020, 10:33 AM

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.

watchwatcher · 24 January 2020, 10:37 AM

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.

Jabbo84 · 24 January 2020, 10:39 AM

How about selling three and getting PM. Time to step up to the plate.

TurboTim14 · 24 January 2020, 10:43 AM

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.

I’m more about dial selection vs reference. The YM has a gorgeous blue dial then the hulk and GMT are complimentary.

+1. This. Best of luck with the decision.

Boaters · 24 January 2020, 11:19 AM

BLNR if you have to..

subtona · 24 January 2020, 11:21 AM

Yachtmaster or blnr... for me I would move both for some more diversity.

3) Submariner Hulk 116610LV
4) GMT II BLNR 116710 BLNR

I love them all but I want to sell one to find a Rose Gold on Oysterflex. Which one goes and why???? Opinions appreciated.Attachment 1103910
This is my entire Rolex collection.

I rotate them and love them equally.....except the BLRO, damn that rock.

Let the BLNR go....

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.

Moved to a Patek 5980/1A-001

I had too many watches anyway

Wow, big change. Part of me feels sorry for you and part of me is crazy jealous of that PP. Well done!

justintime1986 · 24 January 2020, 12:43 PM

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.

HogwldFLTR · 24 January 2020, 06:51 PM

BLNR would be gone for me.

SilverFoxUK · 24 January 2020, 07:30 PM

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?

jay_kay · 24 January 2020, 07:36 PM

Get rid of the BLRO.

samson66 · 24 January 2020, 09:53 PM

BLNR since you have three with oyster bracelets

doramas · 24 January 2020, 09:59 PM

Goodbye to the Yacht Master

Rogdogg · 24 January 2020, 10:07 PM

I'd let the yacht master go simply because I prefer the others over it.
It is still a gorgeous watch though

Sell the YM....don‘t see that one being as popular as the other ones...in the long run.

Relentless · 24 January 2020, 10:44 PM

Yakhamster has to go

Rags · 24 January 2020, 10:50 PM

Let 1 GMT go, one is enough IMO.

Wllnv19 · 24 January 2020, 10:57 PM

Blnr

Gerardus · 24 January 2020, 11:15 PM

I would sell the Hulk.

csj · 24 January 2020, 11:40 PM

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.
