It's just that the Daytona has never hit me hard, it's ok, bragging rights, but I don't see the big hype about it,

I like my sub c more

Absolutely YES! Not a Daytona fan. My favorite Rolex is a ceramic BLRO so easy choice for me. Good luck with your decision!

You def do not need the Wimbledon DJ IMO. If like many of us, you are just trying something new, I think it is a bad idea. If you simply don’t like the Daytona, the Pepsi is a great reference and 100% go for it. Though you will not be getting the Daytona back without a huge loss if you made the switch and regret it down the road. Not necessarily a deciding factor but noteworthy to point out.

You have a fine collection as is, so I’d stay put.

Maybe I’d flip sub for Pepsi as alternative if you can swing it.

This would be a silly trade........the Wimbledon TT DJ is a nice watch but certainly nothing special and not really very hard to obtain. The Pepsi is great, the Daytona is a modern day classic.

If you''re simply trying to take advantage of the appreciation of your Daytona's value, find another watch to go along side the Pepsi but certainly not a DJ......Cheers!!!

Agree with others: do not do it! It will take you forever (and ever) to get another one should you regret your decision later.

I would not do that trade. The only way I would trade the Daytona is for a full PM piece. With prices as crazy as they are right now, you wouldn’t have to add all that much cash on top for a blue dial 126719BLRO. Would scratch the Pepsi itch and replace one special piece with another.

I love the Pepsi, but I would not trade my Daytona for one (and a DJ).

Which white dial? Ceramic or steel bezel? And are the other watches brand new? Only way that’sa hard no is if it’s a Zenith Daytona.

Personally I’d rather an OP36 than a TT Wimbledon but that’s a total aside.

I’m a huge fan of both the Daytona and the Pepsi (ceramic and five-digit). But I’d not trade away the Daytona even for a Pepsi AND a DJ/RG/Wimbledon. A Rolex collection needs a Daytona. Keep yours, and save your pennies to buy a Pepsi, from an AD or gray, depending on how long you’re willing to wait.
