Sub Date and Milgauss

My current collection. I plan to include 1-2 more pieces: 116600 or SD43, and Daytona C. Thinking I may let the Sub Date go being replaced by the new piece. Or I better let one of the Milgauss go? I want to limit the collection to 8 watches.

I would trade my 2001 16610 w/ original LV insert for the Milgauss. I also found out that mines is a transition model and mines has the solid end links. I still have the original flat 4 black insert and spare links.

The 16610LV is a desirable ref. I bought a F serie in 2004, flat 4, but ended selling it in 2006 for less than 4000 Euro. Today it could fetch 3-4 times that much

I just added another BBN this morning. Look like things have not gone as planned though.

Bye bye white Milguass. Hello SubC LN or even an LVC.
That's what I'd do.
Beautiful collection by the way.

Actually the white Milgauss is one of my favorite now that I want to keep. I know it is not popular but it just sings to me. That may change though in the future.

I would replace one of the milgauss with a Daytona C and one of the BBN with a SD43.

You have 2 Millgauss already, so I'd keep the 5 digit Sub. It's a classic.

Daytona C would be nice addition or better yet with the outlay for 2 new watches, maybe consider picking up a PM instead such as a Smurf or OF Daytona?
