Why wouldn't it be okay to buy something you told your AD you wanted?

Too similar for me but in a larger collection I could see it being just fine.

If the RG is on strap then both are different enough to coexist. But if on bracelet I would pass.

Take the Blue ROC, then throw on the blue rubber strap. Different enough at that point.

Some people have blue and white Nautilus, don't see why you can't have RG Blue and SS Blue.

So you don’t think it’s a good idea? The other reason to it’s to hard to wear the all rose one for daily I don’t know that’s the only reason why I’m considering getting the all steel one for daily. I don’t know

Too similar and I think you are not sure either which should be enough of a doubt.

I think you can always sell something that’s redundant. There’s not music risk in buying an AP, Rolex, or patek.

I wouldn't have two RO chronos. But if I were in your situation I would buy the blue steel and sell the gold. That's definitely only a personal preference.

I think it would be a bit redundant. My views is that AP 15202 in gold is the nicest (as a classic piece), and the chrono in stainless steel would be perfect was a more casual / daily setting.
