New collector; advice on next Rolex
I am newish collector and have following models:
Ceramic GMT; Green/green ceramic bezel/ dial sub (116610lv) times two (one was a gift); 1979 gold bark president w blue dial; 2008 TT blue sub (16613). I would be willing to trade in one of the greens or something else (though I find myself wearing those more than any others, even with a suit). Just curious about the thoughts/opinions of you guys who have many more years of living with rolexes. Of course ultimate I have to find what I like, but input from experts with years of experience is always valuable (for example I like the two tone but find most often I either wear all stainless or the ll gold, rather than the mix. I didn't anticipate that when I bought the TT . . .) Thanks! |

You'll find many opinions.
My best advice is to buy/collect/wear what sings to you.

Easy..................I would trade one of the 116610lv's for a SS sub (either 16610 or 116610), that way you'll have a blue dial, green dial and black dial watches

I say the Milgauss or maybe even a DJ2
If you must have sport, I think a good old Yachty might do the trick. |

I agree with the above, a Daytona will fit in your collection nicely.
