New SS Daytona + Pre-loved DD or New RG DD or New RG Daytona

If you already have a 14060 and New SS Daytona and is getting the itch again, which would you consider...

1. Keep the SS Daytona and get a pre-loved DD (yellow or white gold)
2. Sell the SS Daytona and get a New RG DD 118235
3. Sell the SS Daytona and get a New RG Daytona 116505

Would love to hear your thoughts. I'm leaning towards #1. Cheers!

(sorry I couldn't figure out how to create a poll )

Next year is the 50. anniversary of Daytona. I would wait and see what is going to happen for Daytona.

Here is a V serial White Gold with a nice Dial.
Love it.
MSRP is like almost $40K.
This one is available for $24K and I still can't afford it!

I couldn't decide so I bought a RG Daytona to keep my SS Daytona company!

The SS Daytona I'll use in rotation as an everyday watch, with my RG coming out to play on more special occasions lol. I'd like to wear the RG on rotation but at the moment, because it's so new (and expensive!) I'm babying it ... maybe in a month or two I'll wear it like all my other SS watches ...

#1 makes the most sense... but there is something about those RG Daytonas!
