Would not unless you meet these conditions:

1) The Daytona is the watch for you.
2) You feel no attachments to BLNR/LVC.
3) You're willing to pay grey pricing for the Daytona.

Nope, IMO that’s a bad two for one deal!

If you get a few thousand dollars on top of the watch, then yes.
You can easily get the BLNR later. Maybe a little longer for the LV.
But the key is.. do you really love Daytona?

Would you trade..

I know I’m in the minority, but I’m not a fan of the Daytona’s. Never have been. Don’t like the chronometer complication. I feel it clutters the beautiful dials we all love so much. This is a very subjective matter, but I feel your two references are staples of the Rolex brand. Plus, it gives you options and options are always good. In the end, it’s ultimately up to you. Good luck

How much cash are they throwing in with the Daytona?

Would you trade..

Surface level — Absolutely NOT - but...if I REALLY wanted the Daytona and was getting ~ $3-$4k cash on top of the trade it might then be a consideration.

I go by MSRP, not hype.

Just my .02

I think each one of those watches, independent of the other, is nicer than a ceramic daytona. Keep them.

I would in a heartbeat due to the fact the BLNR has never done anything for me!

Not for me, I would have more enjoyment from a LVc + BLNR than any DaytonaC. Seems like a bad trade imho. Good luck though. Cheers!

I love my DaytonaC, but no way. The BLNR and LVC are awesome in their own right. Wait to add.

No sir, as others have stated wait to add it. The BLNR and LV are great unique watches.

Add not replace. I have a DaytonaC and would not sell or trade my BLNR for it.

As much as I like the Daytona, I'd rather have the two watches you have.

I would sell the BLNR and get the Daytona. That's what I did.
