I'm debating on upgrading.
I currently have a 116610(submariner c), I bought it when it first came out and it is my first rolex...Also have a PAM 112

I'm looking at the 116333 datejust ii. Two tone gold, with arabic or regular numerals.

To do this, i would sell my submariner and then pay the difference for the 116333 datejust.

Here is my issue...
I really like the datejust, i want some gold in my life, and i think it would be good stepping stone, to eventually upgrade to an all gold GMTII or Sub.
However, since the submariner is my first Rolex I purchased, i have some emotional value in it. I wanted to pass my first rolex down to a future child. I mean i guess i could pass down any Rolex, but it being my first i thought it would be a little more special.


Am i putting too much emotion on the upgrade? To get a two tone datejust, i would probably be out of pocket 3.5k cash, maybe 2.5(ive seen the deals here!). I do have the cash to pay out of pocket for the watch but at this time, I would rather keep that in my savings.


Thoughts?

Thanks in advanced!!!

I have Sub that I'm going to give my son to.
