Icon20 Considering 2:1 Trade - DDSD JC + TTSD = DD40?

Ok fellas so here is the scenario...

I own a 2020 TTSD and a 2020 DSSD JC... the TTSD is my every day wear, golf, gym, out. Gets lots of compliments, the gold flash & richness, and I love the SD fit. Previously owned the SD43 and the size & fit is perfect for me.

I picked up the DSSD JC later in a bit of a random trade up (for the SD43), and I love the watch, the gradient blue face, bulk, and relative rarity... but unfortunately I rarely wear it. Just doesn’t come out of the dugout enough. And too heavy to golf in.

The YG Day Date is as close to a “grail” watch for me as i can think of, but...

1. Does it makes sense to give up 2 watches for 1? Even if 1 is only worn rarely

2. Not sure if I can golf or be as active w a YG Day Date as a Sea Dweller, so that means less use (enjoyment). Anyone golf w a DD?

3. As stated above, the DSSD is a unique pseudo investment piece- if it ever gets discontinued. Would hate to have FOMO

4. YG Day Date is much more flashy, which may be good or bad. I love it in most situations... but Might be “too much” in certain work / professional situations, I.e. Don’t want to be give off the wrong impression, and worried a $40k all gold watch might be

5. Not an even trade... will likely cost another $7-8k for a mint / new

6. The TTSD was purchased from an AD that I’ve built some rapport with. I would hate to throw it away and start over / only have reseller options if and when I want to add to the collection

7. Btw - My wife would divorce me if I just bought a new DD and kept the others...


Would love any thoughts... such a “tough” call. Rolex forum problems... Haven’t slept for days lol jk


Thanks!
