Current 16610lv random , 116613lb used , or 116520 used

Out of sudden , this come in my mind.

Currently having the Kermit for sometimes , just acquired a Gmt 2 Pepsi this year,

Now I'm having a thought whether to keep the Kermit or trade it with top up for TT 116613lb or SS Daytona 116520 (both pre-owner)

Hope to hear some inputs from all,

Thank you

I own a LV and the Daytona. They complement each other well. The ceramic models don't appeal to me, the "bluesy" least of all.

If you want the 116613 rather than the 16613 it might be that you want the ceramic and glidelock and other updates. If so I'd go for it, but best to add.

Basically is due to the glidelock and the new blue dial that's make me tempted . Those maxi dials and the correct blue is making my nerve restless haha ..

Best to add I guess . Save more and just wait for it

OP: sounds like a good decision has been made. Both the bluesy and the daytona would make excellent additions down the road, IMO.

Love my Fat/Flat Four Kermit. Must keep, to me they are the ultimate combination of vintage and modern.

I'm not a big fan of the LV, I'd get rid of it

And those 2 are great choices, very versatile and esp the daytona can match with many straps.
