Neither the Submariner nor the GMT. All others are fair game.

Keep your first 3!

I would keep the Sub, DD and GMT. The rest could easily go if it were my collection.

Personally I would keep the Sub, Daytona, and Navitimer, and sell the Pepsi, DD and the Tag.

I've never been a fan of the Pepsi and that DD model is old so a newer one would have a lot of upgrades over it if you ever wanted to repurchase it.

I agree with the majority of the comments. Keep the Sub, Day-date, and GMT; sell the Daytona to fund another purchase. I think that's a move for which there is less of a chance of regrets. Good luck!

I'd sell everything except the sub and gmt - you will regret these 2!

Ref. the navi, is that the 43mm?

The NAVI is a 50th anniversary A41322 @ 40mm. One of the few all satin finished Breitlings.

Personally, I would sell the non Rolexes first. Next up, I go by most usable complication: the Daytona (for value and light face), DD (for Value, to flashy for me, on the other a grail...), and the other's well, GMT would be my last to go, but I can see the Sub having staying power for it's reliability and versatility.
The Daytona and DD alone should open a nice budget for new ventures (the non Rolexes sale is spring cleaning, simpler life, clearer thoughts kinda thing).
Best of luck. Nice pickle...

The 1680 and the 16750 are only going to get more expensive. I'd keep those and sell the rest. I'd also wear them!
