Maybe I am going back to two, still playing with the idea.

Which two would you keep and why?

leooooo · 25 January 2020, 01:03 AM

Sub + DD only because that's simply a sick 2 watch lineup. An added perk is that there are no DJIIs included

JayHantz · 25 January 2020, 01:05 AM

Definitely voting for the Sub and Day Date. An amazing two watch combination that literally goes with everything, does everything, and is versatile enough to last generations.

Jmbarrack · 25 January 2020, 01:06 AM

This one is easy. Don't even need to think about it. Sub + DD = All bases covered.

Sub + DD and you have all your angles covered. Rest is nice but not as "complete".

cerendigit · 25 January 2020, 01:07 AM

Sub + DD if you want to keep 2.

If you want to keep one, the DD is the perfect watch.

037 · 25 January 2020, 01:10 AM

You listed Sub + DD first and they're the first two in your signature. You know the answer already.

Sorry, but it random, no strategy behind it.
FYI Sub is my least favourite, first one to go if it would be necessary....

If that's the case then your poll results aren't looking favorable...

Indeed....BTW the poll results are is more or less what I expected.Sub is and stays public favourite....
My personal vote is DJII+DJIITT or maybe DJII+DD.
As said before it's not a financial issue more playing with the idea to reduce....

(It would/could be an € issue if I am in the future going to buy a second house in Spain

)

Sub and DD but if the DD is not that special to you keep the DJ

AK797 · 25 January 2020, 01:30 AM

Slam dunk for 1.

polaris72 · 25 January 2020, 01:30 AM

I picked first choice, but why are you scaling down? Rolex only or other brands too? I am thinking the same, but having a hard time which to keep and what to let go.

Having this collection now, 90% of my time a wear my DJII's in rotation. Sub IMHO (I know....I know.....peoples favourite, almost a holy watch

) does not wear THAT comfortable.
DD is absolutely my grail, but I come in a lot of places (also abroad) where I can not wear a golden watch for catching the wrong attention and also for safety reasons.
Besides my Seiko SKX I don't own other brands.

Rags · 25 January 2020, 01:34 AM

A Sub and Day date is all anyone needs, a sport & a dress watch.

Hulkhunter · 25 January 2020, 01:35 AM

Sub and Day Date all day long!

DLRIDES · 25 January 2020, 01:39 AM

Sub & DD

Maximum versatility

Krash · 25 January 2020, 03:28 AM

Sub and Day Date or Sub and Blue dial Datejust.

Another nod for the DD and Sub.

MasonDixon · 25 January 2020, 03:39 AM

It's a no-brainer, Sub + DD.

Doc Savage · 25 January 2020, 03:47 AM

The SS Sub + Gold DD is an amazing (and complete) 2-watch collection.

jb335 · 25 January 2020, 04:04 AM

Easy. The consensus here has it right. Sub + DD

MTdweller · 25 January 2020, 04:09 AM

I’m a sucker for blue dials so I would go w/ DJII and Sub.

franktehtank · 25 January 2020, 04:14 AM

I'm not surprised with the consensus. I would keep the sub + DD, but then maybe add ONE more piece to have a 3 watch collection. Two is too few :)

dwjez14 · 25 January 2020, 04:59 AM

It’s going to be hard for anyone to tell you anything other than sub and dd. Now if you are getting rid of for cash then you might get different answers

Thanxs, it's not a cash issue.

crazycarlitos · 25 January 2020, 05:18 AM

Since u don’t like the sub, keep the dd and the dj2.

I am a big fan of dj2

It’s the best sporty dress watch imo.

If u don’t like the YG dd, perhaps trade it for WG or platinum?

Or get a 5 digit sub, if u feel that the 6 digit sub is uncomfortable

Rrpdc · 25 January 2020, 05:20 AM

I am not a yellow gold or tt fan but obviously you like since you purchased. Go with your what you prefer but not like what poll says.
