Keeping two out of my current four, what would you keep?
Maybe I am going back to two, still playing with the idea.
Which two would you keep and why?

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

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.

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

Sub + DD if you want to keep 2.
If you want to keep one, the DD is the perfect watch. |

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

FYI Sub is my least favourite, first one to go if it would be necessary....

Keeping two out of my current four, what would you keep?
Quote:
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 )

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.

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.

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

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

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 :)

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

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

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.
