26405CE and 26400IO - Own Both?
I have the Ti44. My local boutique has the 26405CE in the window. First time I saw it in the flesh and was able to try it on. I certainly like it a lot. For those that have both of these watches, do you wear both? Do you like owning both or are they redundant?

I would suggest you should try the RG 44...it’s a gorgeous piece and AP RG is something spectacular...you can later add the TI or ceramic whichever you like to go with it

I have two ROO 44's and no I don't find them redundant.
RG44 and the 26400. Both excellent choices. Of the two you listed, I prefer the 26405ce.

Owned both at separate times. I don’t think it benefits our hobby to think too much about how a watch fits into the collection but instead do you really like it? If so then grab it!

Ti and CE look different enough as regards colours, materials etc so there is a good point to not overthink it too much. If you like it enough go for it.
Personally though I really like the RG version so I would have that and one of the others but that is my prefeeence. |

That ceramic offshore is stunning and it is substantially different to the ti. If I owned both of those I’d keep the ti on a white rubber for summer and wear the ceramic much more in winter.

I wouldn’t , as I am planning to get another non offshore chrono definitely going to sell my offshore first. I feel it is too much of an overlap to keep both

Well some people on here RF own every single SS Rolex produces. Asking about redundancy is nearly laughed at and widely accepted. Its your money do whatever you want.
AND there are RF members who own multiple PM’s in their collections. I’d say it’s ok to have some heavy hitters that are similar. |

I had the RG and the Ti for while, I ended up selling the Ti because I figured I changed my collection a bit and having the same model in different materials was a bit redundant ... that's my opinion
