I think if you’re going to go down to two you should “upgrade”

Sell one and it should be easy to feel which one you like least. Wait 6-12 months and if you are still having these crazy thoughts, jk, then sell the least worn out of the remaining. Keep what you enjoy.

Not a bad idea, getting down to 3 as a start and than reassess

Agreed-this is a good idea.
Make the first cut and evaluate.

Keeps the Patek on the board, but based on your comments that may remain regardless.

I guess another question is do you want a sports watch in the collection, or does your Day Date cover that sufficiently?

Keep us posted on what you decide.

Good thread and good input from all, imo.

Patek is a keeper imo. None of the other 3 have the same feel and look.
DD is a keeper and so is GMT but.....I'd prefer a ss Pepsi rather than pm. Just because you already have a wg DD that gets most of the wrist time.

I'd part with the Daytona if I have to.....based on personal preference and utility. I have no use for the chrono function. Nevertheless, I make use of GMT and day-date functions on regular basis.

I would keep them all. A nice four watch collection is not too much and you have some nice watches that check a lot of boxes.

Keep 2 and 3. Take profits and splurge on something else.

I would keep 1 and 3 as you can maximize your profits by flipping the mickey mouse watch (BLRO) and the unreadable watch (daytona)

I’d sell the 116719 and keep the other three. It’s really a fantastic 3 watch collection.

Having a steel Daytona is a nice option if you don’t want to wear a strap watch or the DayDate, or if the DayDate is at service. Correcting the “mistake” by selling a SS Daytona could be costly.

2 and 4 unless you have little need at all for the GMT complication. Then 3 and 4.

Pepsi and Daytona combo is so ideal.
