Collection Advice!

Current collection is 44 my RG silver dial earlier model and the RG 42mm on strap yellow dial.

I have the following options In consideration kindly let me know:

1. 44mm RG - this is a keeper
2. add Summer edition offshore 44mm RG LE 450 pcs
I will sell the 42 RG to get this.

Option 2:

1. 44 RG
2. 42 RG on strap
3. Add Ceramic offshore 44mm black dial 2017 novelty

Won’t be selling anything for option 2


Please let me know

Many thanks
Urooj

option 1 because with two RG's the regular RG 44 and SE is a better pair than a RG 44 and a RG 42, even with the addition of the ceramic.

Unless you are going for a collection of AP's, I think option 1 would make a killer duo. I have seen the SE on various straps and it goes well.

Option (2) for me. More variety and CE44 is cool. The Summer Edition RG44 with that large flashy gold bezel is going to be a ding magnet.

Option 2 for me. Option 1 ends up with two similar watches (basically bezel and dial colour are the only difference).
Options 2 gives variety on materials, sizes ec

Thank you! Yup the ceramic prices are sky rocketing for now hopefully with new releases the current regular production will see some down turn

Thank you! I’m really aware when I wear my watches my 2012 rg 44mm is in pristine condition and I’m fetching a good deal for the rg 42mm as it’s ding free and almost qualifies for a safe queen. Will probably wear this over weekend or so and change of strap is inevitable. Since I regularly wear my 44 rg I know I might not enjoy the ceramic that much since Ive had the rg variation for so long but when I tried on th summer edition it was my favourite design with a new alluring exquisite twist. Thank you Ben!
