No. The Sub ND is a classic.

I’d get rid of the ND and get a dj41 instead. Would make a great trio!

Generally I'm in favor of adding selectively to a collection, rather than trading, but if you're looking to keep it at three, I'd be inclined to trade the ND for a Y-M. As it is, you have two Subs and a GMT, all of which have Supercases and ceramic bezels, and two of which have black dials. There's a lot of similarity there. A Y-M would help mix things up a little, with a different case shape and bezel material. It would also add a different shade of dial, especially if you went with the blue. (That said, then you wouldn't have any watch without some color, so you've got to make sure you're OK with that, and being without an all-black - and all-occasion - watch.)

I also like nikesupremedunk's idea of a DJ41, which would perhaps mix things up even more.

Sell the ND.

Get a fluted bezel Rolex for variety with a light colored dial.

I generally agree with this but I would lose the BLNR for the reason highlighted. I know that's not a popular choice but its what I would do.

Sub C LN (date or no date) is a quintessential rolex.. I may trade one for an SD 4K or SD43 but definitely not for a YM

Yes, you have 2 x Submariner’s and the YM would give your collection more variety and give you a dressier option.

I would flip the LV or BLNR before the Submariner.

I wouldn't. The Sub is a classic and I'd keep both of yours. I've never understood the appeal of a Yachtmaster. To me the Yachtmaster is the weakest watch that Rolex produce. But if you really like it, i suppose you have two Submariners so the Yachtmaster would certainly add variety. Have you thought about going for the air, land, sea trio? You could go for an Explorer I or II, Milgauss or a Datejust.

I think that the Sub is a classic, and really think it is a staple in any collection. However, if you want the “three” watch collection and love the LV to have the Sub; I would trade the Sub for a YM. They offer a classy look that can be dressed up or down and wear really well on the wrist.

Good luck with your choice.

I did just that for the blue dial, I had had enough of the black subs, wanted more diversity.

I'm probably not the person you should ask...Look at my signature...

Of course you should do it! The YM 1 whether 5 digit or 6, is a Beautifully Refined version of the Submariner. Once on your wrist, it feels like it was meant to be there. The comfort is amazing, and the colors are some of the most spectacular in the ROLEX line-up. The Platinum Dial, is like no other, and the Platinum Bezel, has a look all it's own

"If you don't know, you don't know..." A line from the Movie Hoodlum

Which color and model are you looking at?

There it is! That's just like mine... Amazing pic Neil.

PS. What do we call the blue dial? Sunburst, or..?

I would not. Add a Polar Explorer II and you might have an ultimate SS collection for me.
