Would you make this trade for a Daytona?

So, I have two watches at the moment, a white dial Milgauss 166400 from 2008 and a Olive dial OP 34mm 2019. Eventhough I love both of my watches, I got an offer to sell my watches for close to what I payed for them, plus some extra money for a decent priced 2008 Daytona 116523. So I won't really lose too much money on this trade. I think a TT Daytona is such a beautiful watch but I could use some input from my fellow watch enthusiasts on whether I should pull the trigger.

I like the idea of an all-in-one watch so the idea is that i'll become a One Watch Guy. At the moment I swap my watches everyday and i do enjoy wearing both my watches, so hopefully i can stick by previous comment in the future.

But I am bit worried about the gold effect. I'd say my Milgauss is the flashiest out my watches, but would the Daytona be a lot more in your face? Occasionally i'll get the Is-that-a-Rolex-question and that's okay, but I don't really need more people noticing me wearing an (even more) expensive watch.

And I feel like the Daytona could be a more sought after watch (now and maybe more so in the future), i like the idea of something relatively exclusive (I know, I know, Rolex watches are mass produced products.)

Anyways, would you make this deal or just leave it as is? And are there other factors me to take in consideration?

Tips in the sorts of 'don't ask a bunch of strangers online' or 'do what you like best' are not really needed.
