These 3, though I think you're too heavy on blue dials if your only 3

Just the the daytona black. Add the 15202or if you must. Have the perfect 2 watch collection. Add a calatrava for the perfect 3 watch collection. Forget the nautilus. They are not that great.

Rolex Daytona 116500 (White Dial)

Rolex Daytona 116500 (Black Dial)

Rolex Stainless Steel Sky Dweller (Blue Dial)

I respect Patek. When I see a Patek. I see the person with wealth status.

If I have no money the go for Daytona ceramic black

I gotta say that I was thinking the same thing. I wouldn't get two Daytonas for a 3-watch collection; and while I admire the mechanical engineering involved with the multiple complications on the SkyD, this watch is still growing on me since it seems a bit flashy/busy for my more conservative style.

White Daytona
Blue SkyD
Patek 5711

[Horology.life]

would be these 3 for me.....

Rolex Daytona 116500 (Black Dial)

Rolex Stainless Steel Sky Dweller (Blue Dial)

Patek Philippe 5711 (blue dial)

[DocHorton]

I'd go with Black Daytona, Blue Skydweller, but White Patek. I think the 5711 in white dial is better than the blue, and then you have 3 different color dials.

[AK797]

White Daytona not black. Ideally I'd have a Sub, so LVc and the 5712 or 5164 as the PP.

[Wcdhtwn]

I think I'd go for three different colors. Daytona White, SkyD Black, 5711 blue. Plus I think you'd have an easier time getting a black dial SkyD than blue.

And to note, I said "easier" not "easy".

[sensui]

This is a weird thread....obviously it should be Daytona (whichever color you like more), SkyDweller, 5711....why would you choose to exclude any of the others to have 2 Daytonas? I mean I guess only if you have no interest in the watch itself but why include it in the choices if that's the case? If you want another Daytona that bad I say pursue something different (16520, 116520, 4 digit Daytonas, PM etc).

[lord91]

From your list, i would take 2: 5711 and black Daytona.

[Jimbogigolo]

5711, Sky D, and white Daytona.

Hey! Then that means you’re with the smart guy, not stupid


Yeah, honestly that same 3, but replace the 5711 with an AP Jumbo and that’s a 3 watch collection I could see myself with. 3 different dial colors with 3 different respectable histories.

[DLRIDES]

I would only keep two from that list :

PP & either Daytona

Flip the SD & other Daytona for three classics, Sub, Speedy, & Reverso. Then set up for the final piece in the future ........................ a complicated gold Lange. Five SS classics and one gold grail, drop the microphone and walk away !

[Chadridv]

IMO this comes down to which daytona. I just trade my black dial for white and so far have no regrets. Both are amazing though.

I feel that black is slightly more versatile, as it's sporty but dresses up a little easier than the white. But if you have a 5711, I don't think you'll need to worry about a "dressy" daytona.

oh... and here, why not!? :)

[PLNYC]

Daytona White dial, skydweller blue and 5711

If I were to scale back my three watch collection would be the 116500LN Black, the SkyD Blue, and the 116600 SD4K. To me that is a perfect three watch collection.

Not a great shot but you get the idea. Happy Halloween I might add.

[16610v]

One sub
One daytona
One big watch (like IWC BP)

Now that is something I have to say I did not consider, I like it! I do love both my Daytonas but as I want to scale down i know it doesn't make sense to keep both dials. I prefer my white dial more. Might find it hard to part ways with my Sky D though, this is really a tough decision

I already have these watches, I just need to scale down. I love them all but i suppose it doesn't make sense to keep 2 Daytonas

Hi mate,

I went for the 5711, it's a masterpiece. My issue now is that I have 2 blue pieces and 2 Daytonas. I need to scale down though. My heart is telling me I don't need 2 Daytonas, so i'm thinking to keep the white as I like that one the most.

[fskywalker]

From those white Daytona, SD and PP

Beautiful Daytona on Jubilee!
