Which collection would you rather have?

Not feeling my black no date sub (124060, felt the black bezel was too boring) and my Zenith Chronomaster Sport (love the design but sits too thick). Thus, thinking of trading plus some money on top. Which collection would you rather have?

1: Ed White 321 Speedmaster, Rolex Pepsi 126710 BLRO, Daytona White 116500ln

OR

2). Ed White 321 Speedmaster, Rolex Pepsi 126710 BLRO, Submariner Kermit 126610LV, Snoopy 50th anniversary

OR

3). Ed White 321 Speedmaster, Rolex Pepsi 126710 BLRO, Submariner Kermit 126610LV, 126710 BLNR Batman (Pepsi is on jubilee)

Probably # 1, but I do think you need to add a Sub, at some point. Having said that, I, personally prefer all the new subs, to any of the GMTs, with the exception of the Pepsi Meteorite.

Not sure I would go for any of the combinations.

One Speedmaster is enough for me, preferably the Ed White; one GMT II is enough for me, the BLRO is my choice; and for a Sub, if the black bezel doesn’t do it for you, the Kermit is a can’t miss.

The Daytona is one of those watches you get because a collection is supposed to have one.

If you aren't "feeling" the 124060, I question whether or not you really bond with the LV sub, although there are differences obviously.

I would go with option 1.

If limited to the selection (which I believe is the approach expected) - #1 is a no brainer. I also have a personal bias towards the 116500LN that is outside the general hype.

Hm, I like 2 & 3 about equally well but the last one in each list feels duplicative. I'd drop that and go with something non-chrono and without a rotating bezel. Something like a DJ, Exp I, OP, etc.

I like the variety, but would probably stick with a regular black Sub over the LV given the colors in the BLRO and Snoopy.

None of choices listed, I’d make my collection of these: Daytona and snoopy and pocket the rest of the cash.

I would go w/#1.

IMO, the Ed.W will contrast with the white Daytona so the chrono's will differ enough. If it was a black Daytona, I'd probably go with a different option.
