Two is better than one - imagine a 12 weel wait to have your watch serviced! What would you wear if you only had one?
Why save up and trade in one of your two existing watches for the 116613LB. That way you will get your new watch and still have your favorite out of the other two. M |

Maybe he has the cash but doesn't want $20,000 tied up in watches. I would not make that trade unless you were going for the all gold sub.

I'd not be tempted myself.
Also bear in mind that the combined value of your two watches is well in excess the value of the 116613, if they were all pre-owned. A case of cashburn if you ask me.

As said before, its a crazy idea, as you have two very nice watches. Save up for the TT Sub, there are plenty of the blue ones knocking around.

I agree - I'd prefer two over one unless it was an all gold model. Out of my league at this point though!

No, I would not; the DJII and the milgauss are so nice watch and better complement the dress & sport habit.

I would do the DJ2 + cash, but not both for the Sub.

Call me crazy but I would do it. Just make sure you get the deal that you are happy with. Whether or not someone else can get a better deal matters not if you are completely satisfied.
