Most of the collection is tied to life events i.e., birth of my son, starting my own business, first Rolex, gift, etc. Only ones i would ever consider moving would be the 214270 and 114060.

As far as the Day Date suggestions, they’re great, I’ll own one at one point. But I’m not in a rush to get into one and I’ve always said it’ll be reserved for my 50th birthday.

The weight of PM is definitely a factor for me and having the glidelock is a huge plus. So Francesco’s suggestion of swapping it out for a WG GMT doesn’t excite me, plus i just got the SS BLRO and prefer it over the PM version. It’s also tied to a cool story already so it’s staying.

I like the WG sub i have but almost feel a little guilt just buying such an expensive watch only because “i liked it” i really like to reward myself or tie watches to big life events so i feel like the next PM watch should wait and “be earned” (if that makes sense).

Not going to jump to any decisions as my impulses have cost me a lot in this hobby.

Just wanted feedback and thoughts from other collectors who have done similar.
I'm definitely with you here; been tempted to sell/trade my Platona but so far haven't given in to the urges.
