I'd do it. More variety with that gorgeous green dial. Love the contrast with the black bezel against YG.

There is no way I would want to get rid of the YG Sub. For me it is one of my favorites! That is unless I had my TT Sunburst dial back.

GFONG · 23 September 2017, 08:47 PM

For me, I would replace smurf with BLRO. The YG Blue dial looks awesome.

tommy91 · 23 September 2017, 08:49 PM

Keep it as it is, I constantly get that feeling of missing a watch I flipped but I know if I bought it back I would be flipping it again, you sold it for a reason.

rmlovett1 · 23 September 2017, 09:25 PM

Thank you gentleman, much appreciated! ....keep 'em coming....

Jimbogigolo · 23 September 2017, 09:39 PM

I’d diversify and get the green

I would do that - I prefer green dial gmt but black dial too is worthy of that move. Never saw those stickers off in your pics so I had a feeling you weren't sure

Etschell · 23 September 2017, 10:06 PM

This ia tough. It depends on the rest of your collection.

Id dump the smurf. Either get the gmt in gold or another rose gold watch like the ym or sky d. Just my 2 cents.

1William · 23 September 2017, 10:35 PM

I would keep the YG Submariner and move the WG Sub for either a WG Daytona or a WG DD40. I just sold a WG Sub and while I always wanted one I knew it was not a long term purchase. I have done all the colors with watches and it is real nice but it is hard to beat YG and Black for a color combination.

That is killer, Richard!

However, that pic makes me wonder...since you have two subs and a GMT, how awesome would just adding the YG GMT to the mix...leaving you with 2 of each?

Love the BLRO, except....the bezel (had it once and let it go)

You have a great collection. I would suggest sticking with what what you have. My personal preference would be WG Sub, BLRO (though the order between these two changes periodically), blue YG Sub. The green YG Sub is some distance behind the other three

Pius XIII · 24 September 2017, 04:18 AM

With your collection I would definitely swap the Smurf for the YG green dial GMT. You would have the best of both worlds with the sunburst blue dial and the matte green dial. Also you would have two YG pieces and two white pieces.

traf · 24 September 2017, 04:20 AM

Definitely swap yg sub for green dial gmt!

mtgjr · 24 September 2017, 08:22 AM

You've got the diver, chrono, and GMT categories covered. In my opinion, YG = DD. I'd flip the YG Sub for a YG DD40. That would be a terrific foursome, and with no redundancy.

GMT Aviator · 24 September 2017, 08:58 AM

I think the yellow gold GMT with Green Dial has WAY more presence than the yellow gold sub, but it's a tough call, because they are all beautiful pieces. I love the gold GMT hand especially.
You've trimmed your collection down significantly. It's making me feel guilty about the size of mine now!!
I'm glad to see the LN hanging in there amongst such great company. I love the LN, it's a modern classic for sure.

Thanks Mike. Yes, sold quite a few recently, want to settle between 5-6 I'm thinking. Want to REALLY enjoy/wear what I have, instead of have outliers sitting around. Yeah, kind of going between having 2 WG pieces or 2 YG pieces....

RichM · 24 September 2017, 12:39 PM

Real tough call. I thought about this one a lot. As beautiful as the Sunburst Sub is, I’d flip it for the YG Green Dial GMT.

The PM Sub, GMT and Daytona are quite a trio.

I’m not one to have multiples of the same reference, regardless of metal, and I also go for different dial/bezel colors. Not to make it any harder I’d loose the SS GMT (assuming you go green GMT) and pick up another reference. Explorer, DJ etc, etc......

Good luck, Rich

Thanks Ritchie. Good thoughts!:)

BNA/LION · 24 September 2017, 01:31 PM

I would get the YG green dial back, in place of YG Sub. I really like the YG Sub but the WG is a keeper and the Green/YG Sub would be good to mix things up. IMHO

TimeOnHand · 24 September 2017, 02:10 PM

Smurf and GMT works well!

Investr · 24 September 2017, 04:29 PM

I'm a huge fan of the green dial GMT! It would go great with the Smurf (as u know). The GMT is such a unique watch and you already a PM blue dial piece. Go get that baby back.....

nuvolari · 24 September 2017, 09:04 PM

No question, WG Smurf and Green GMT.

rmlovett1 · 25 September 2017, 12:25 AM

At the end of the day...I may go with 2 YG pieces after all ! Many compelling arguments to go that route.
I will, as always, march to my own drum beat...as they say. But always love seeing the opinions and wise advice of all my like-minded friends here on TRF.
