Get rid of the Root Beer.
Subs and Datejusts are more iconic. And the kermit and Wimbledon a special. |

Definitely sell/trade DJ. Of course I say this as someone who dislikes both the proportions of the DJ 41 and the look of the Wimbledon.

I used to have a blue DJ41, as much as I love that watch it never gets enough wrist time.
It’s good but not as good as a sub / gmt. I sold it after a year or so. Definitely sell the DJ. |

Most of the responses here are nothing more than groupthink and hype.
Keep the DJ. It's pure class. Personally, I think the dial is stunning and easily smokes any sub or GMT dial. The sunburst slate provides a beautiful backdrop to the stainless steel case and bracelet. The lacquer on the roman numerals is executed flawlessly. That subtle green hue outlining the black hour markers is spectacular. The bold, daring decision to incorporate a singular luminous marker at 9 o'clock pays off and gives the watch a unique identity, also adding balance to the cyclops. It's original, but also timeless. It's dressy, but also sporty. It can go with so many styles of attire and works with so many different colors and outfits. You could argue that it may be the only watch you'd ever need and you could be satisfied for a lifetime with it. It embodies a Rolex. |

Keep the LV for casual and the CHNR for your dress watch. My DJ41 never sees my wrist these days. Not a knock on the DJ it’s just the sports lineup is just too good in the Rolex range. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thanks for all your feedback guys, always was going to be a tough decision for me.
Sub C is classic must have watch and can be worn for any occasion. Like someone said everyone should have a Sub in some form. CHNR I personally think is the most beautiful timepiece in the whole Rolex collection (probably you could argue the full rose gold model is even more stunning) but this watch actually in person is mesmerising. Photos do not do this watch justice! The only negative I can find about this model is its my most flashiest watch and the other two are a little bit more under the radar and not so much in your face. This leaves the DJ and really do love the Wimbledon dial very unique and with the other two models both being sports models with oyster strap this gives me a bit of variety. Also this watch out of the three is the only one that holds some sentimental value for me, so I agree it would be easiest to replace this model one day but it would never be MY watch. I agree with all your points in different ways but its going to be one of them decisions that which ever one a let go, I will one day regret and say to myself 'I never should of sold that watch' that's why I posted on here to see if more opinions would help my decision. To tell the truth I still can't decide which one!!! Really appreciate all your help as always I really like seeing the way different people view things. KK |

I agree with you I should keep the professional models, 126610lv is definitely a special piece.

There is waaay too many people on this forum who think the only Rolex worth having isn’t a DJ and they couldn’t be more wrong. The Cermit is most definitely a hyped watch. God only knows why. Personally I think it’s an awful colour combo but each to their own. Sell it high now and you can get another sub in the future. This way you don’t end up with two pro references when the CHNR more than covers it. |

If the DJ was the regular baton dial version, I'd say ditch the 126610LV.
However I personally can't STAND the Wimbledon dial, so in this case the DJ would be in the departure lounge ASAP. |

As a fellow married man, I would say you answered your own question there.

Without a doubt keep the DJ and CHNR. Excellent combo. No need for sport watch redundancy in a duo.
