Current plan- 3 for 1

[Lemonvr6]

Hulk Batman and a black sub c for a wg dd40. I paid under msrp for all. I’d be left with a new black GMTC and the DD.

[Cdavi67]

nope nope nope nope nope

Ultimately your call, but those are some great pieces... I personally would hold on to them.

[coralfarmer84]

Seems like you could sell outright and have enough for day date and some

[Lemonvr6]

The counterpoint to that is I have the same watch four times over

[DP63]

Given that you have the GMTC and a DD as well, go for it if its a watch youve lusted after.

[Chadridv]

If you can get the money right, I'm not opposed to this. Although, I'd prefer to keep the BLNR. Which would leave you with the BLNR and the DD.

[huncho]

are you only set on WG?

[Lemonvr6]

I’m stuck between the YG champagne / Roman and the WG white / roman

[SLS]

Not a fan of the LVC or BLNR and the Sub can easily be replaced, I say go for it!

[samson66]

No way, you will regret it down the road. Those are three amazing pieces you'd be losing for a watch that is amazing but has way less versatility. I'd think pretty hard before doing this

if i were to do this trade i would go for the YG champagne. gives you better variety imo but i'm not a fan of WG personally so i'm biased

i have a yg dd36 with champagne dial as well and love it

[zjd168]

I won't do it, at least I would keep the Hulk. WG DD as daily and the Hulk for weekend/vacation.

[wisguy]

I would do it

I'd keep the LVc too, and I'd sell 3 of 4 SS to go to a PM.

[FirstF80InSpace]

Absolutely no way!

[marc12]

I would do it too, especially for olive dial.

[CoveWatch]

It’s not a bad trade value wise, but I’d prefer to keep the 3 SS references.. is the DD the only watch you are considering? Anything else from other brands? A pm jumbo perhaps?

I've never understood that argument as despite being similar, they're completely different watches that appeal to different people.

For example, I lust after Submariner in Steel with a black dial but I would never even look at a BLNR or Green Submariner. The same for a white gold Day Date.

As such, it's a personal decision that we can't make for you but if you would adore a white gold Day Date, go for it! :)

I understand completely your point, that is the whole purpose of different models. But I think op is trying to convey that since he owns all 4 different models he feels like he has the same watch just in different colors. This I completely agree with and is why I only own a BLNR and not a sub, bluesy, gmt ln, pepsi, ect... If you strip away the color you essentially have the same watch, all have a rotating bezel, same bracelet, same case size, practically the same dial, etc.

As for the original question, I would try and sell all the pieces first and if that doesn't pan out do the trade. IMO it doesnt matter the money being spent/lost, its a luxury want we dont need these watches anyway lol, the only thing that matters is if you love what you have and enjoy it!

[Quake1028]

I would do that, yeah. Either keep the LN if you want/need the GMT complication or the Hulk to go with whatever DD40 you decide on.

[Lemonvr6]

I’m not likely to keep the hulk instead of a black model. It’s very specific.

[Chester01]

You know, there is a lot to be said for paring down, leaving you with 2 great and versatile pieces. Several years ago, I felt like my collection was getting a bit big, with great pieces barely getting any wrist time, and trimming down from 7-8 to 4 has been great, not to mention less $$ on servicing costs.

[Houston77]

I'd do it. You'd probably get around 10k for the Hulk and BLRN and 7-8k for the SubC, so the value is about right. I also like a smaller collection and am not have a huge fan of having a bunch of sports watches. A DD and GMTC is a killer 1-2 punch.

[eltonbalch]

I’d be far more inclined to keep what I have and add the DD 40 when I had the funds. I’d wear that rotation for a while and only then would I evaluate what to keep and what to let go—maybe You’d sell the DD 40!

[Maiden]

If you really want the DD and the numbers work, go for it! One sports Rolex and PM DD are all one needs. Personally I would keep the Sub and DD but if you prefer the GMT that's the way to go! Good luck and post pics when you make the move.

Agree with Neil.

[Vivalas]

I wouldn’t do that myself, but only you know how much you want the new one and hopefully how little you’ll miss the 3 that go.

[Colin10101]

Yes I’d do it. I don’t think I’d want to own 4 watches, few too many for me.

[Gerardus]

Good plan, I would keep the SUB+DD (dream pair imho)

[upsidedownbelt]

No way, and it's not even close.
