DD and then anything else. But really any pair other than gmt and sub would be killer.

Pepsi and Daytona. Daytona is classy and can be worn with anything. Pepsi makes a statement and is an eye catcher. I hate to leave the DD off the table, but with these configuration I think those two would be the better 2 watch collection!

I'm concerned for all of the people who don't feel comfortable wearing a day date. Day date and sub would be all you need

DD and Pepsi. Not a fan of the black dial Daytona and sub is way too common.

This.


But if I had to absolutely choose, then that:

DD & Daytona for me.

Not sure the mixed responses to your question are going to help you decide!

Go with what your gut tells you to.

I think part of the answer lies in your lifestyle / personal style. Do you feel you need a truly dressy watch (like RG DD - and BTW, how often do you wear it now?). An all PM like this RG DD is pretty blingy.

For my lifestyle, the DD is too much for me. And the daytona with black dial and bezel is well, too black and busy (again for me - if it was a white dial, like I have, I might pick it). So, sub (yes all black, but not busy), and the GMT as it can be dressy and sporty too. But you do you.

This is a easy one for me. Submariner and Daytona. Done.

That’s easy.

The sub.


But I can see your dilemma… the 4 you have chosen are excellent choices to cover the variety of top choices from Rolex. If you get rid of any it puts a whole in the theme and may you leave you feeling like something’s missing?


Consolidate 3 and get something super special to go with the sub :)
