Big incoming and current status of collection
So after much deliberation I decided to finally pull the trigger on coveted BLRO.
Went gray for the first time, since I am not sure I will ever get it from my AD. :) Unworn partially stickered old stock from a collector is exactly what I wanted for that special experience. Now my small collection looks like this. Big question is if I should get rid of a Sub? After having a Daytona and Pepsi, it doesn’t feel that special anymore ) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You have a great selection there. I’m never going to tear down a submariner date but if you do let it go there are other likeminded options out there.

Solid, tasteful, well curated collection!
Damn, that white dial speedmaster looks better and better every time I see it. I really like your variety in bracelets. Part of the reason you should keep the Sub. It's that quintessential steel, black dial watch, and the brushed oyster is its own classic character. If you had, say an Explorer (vs Exp 2) or OP in the same dark dial, then that would be a different matter.

Solid collection.
Keep the Sub. You’ll eventually miss it if you let it go. |

Get rid of the black sub and get the green one. You have a speedy and the rose OF to wear with neutral clothes. The green sub is basically a MUST in your collection. Imo of course Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Personally, I dont care much for the white dial Speedie. If this was my collection and something had to go, it would be an easy call for me. |

Great collection, congratulations!
The Submariner Date is legendary, you should keep it (ok, I'm biased :-)). |

I would trade the Sub Date for a Sub No Date. That way is slightly different to the GMT.

Congrats on the BLRO and making it happen!
I think a Sub fits great into any collection and wouldn't change a thing. |

The Daytona OF is great

Congrats! Going grey is 100% the right move, fact of the matter is most people will be waiting forever for a Pepsi on Jubilee from an AD, and if you could get one anyway then if/when you get the call you can sell the second one and be at/around retail net all in. And I would sooner keep the Sub and axe the Speedy, but that's just me.

Congratulations. Very nice collection. If you stay with the hobby long enough you will circle around and buy another Submariner if you get rid of it. Just keep it and enjoy it.

Big Congrats. Don’t get crazy and dump the Sub unless you trade it for Hulk.
