Buy a Datejust. You’ll be refreshingly amazed how good they really are, and seemingly make lot of the sports models seem superfluous.

Good observation and great advice

I'll go off the reservation a bit. I think a great combo would be a 50th Anniversary Sub and a JLC Master Control Geographic.

The Sub is a great conversation piece and versatile casual watch. The JLC can handle business, travel and formal occasions. If I had to get down to two, this would be the way I might go.

I would add a white or blue Sky Dweller, otherwise keep them the way it is!

WatchNutcase · 1 February 2018, 01:41 PM

Definitely depends on personal taste. A simple thing such as wrist size can make a huge difference. For me it's my Rolex air-king with white dial & Roman numerals, next on the list will be another air-king with silver dial.

I must say that is a KILLER two piece combo.

Shoot, I read the title and posted before reading your thread. I sometimes read the last page of the book first, too.

I would go LVc and BLNR

.

If you can get your hands on a Daytona C, I’d flip the BLNR.

oldman2005 · 1 February 2018, 01:55 PM

Wow, your Daydate is stunning, may I ask what model is it?

Thank you! Reference 228206.

I read the title of the post and not the body so I jumped the gun and posted my favorite two Rolex combo.

OP, apologies for getting in the way here.

brandrea · 1 February 2018, 02:05 PM

If you’re looking to stay with two, then what you have are widely regarded as modern classics.

If you’ve fallen out with either one, I could easily see adding a DJ41. I’d always want a Sub of some sort though

HogwldFLTR · 1 February 2018, 02:09 PM

Really the only answer is the two which an individual finds most attractive. For me it would be my Sky D and Sea Dweller offering both a dressy watch and an adventure watch.

I could likely live with this (Mark II Co-axial) instead of the SD however the SD have better water resistance.

Nycturbovr6 · 1 February 2018, 02:39 PM

I like the lv and the blnr. I wouldn't change anything.

modabyboutique · 1 February 2018, 03:40 PM

Keep
Hulk and get a 2 tone sub

fishingbear · 1 February 2018, 04:52 PM

Wouldn’t change what you have.

genkifd · 1 February 2018, 05:28 PM

Mine would be sd43 and either an explorer 1 or zenith el primero. But also like the jlc reverso tribute to 1931 limited edition

Ruud Van Driver · 1 February 2018, 06:20 PM

Keep the two you have and if you're jonesing for a third, add something completely different. If it has to be a Rolex, I'd go Daytona or SS SkyD.

LV and LB. Two of the best sunburst dials out there.

RMC12 · 1 February 2018, 09:18 PM

No change required. I owned both these watches at one time and I also added a Polar ExpII which I think made a great trio. A slightly more accessible trio than a white dial Daytona too!

1William · 1 February 2018, 09:44 PM

Keep what you have and add the SD43. Great three watch combination.

dr35mm · 2 February 2018, 06:19 AM

LV-C and SD43 if you are comfortable with the size. If not, consider a NDSub or SD4K.

My current (and for the forseaable future) combo is the BLNR & DSSD.
I often go back/forth....but I really have what I need covered; a GMT & The Beast of a Diver. I'm my own boss so the need for a dress watch is nil.

Ungucpho · 2 February 2018, 06:47 AM

BLNR & Ceramic White Face Daytona for me

BreezyMan · 2 February 2018, 07:06 AM

Datejust and a sub if not sub then black bay

Yobber76 · 2 February 2018, 12:41 PM

I think both your watches are great, but I would add on that the DJ 41 adds a whole different look to your watch picture. They truly are beautiful watches, I think great for dress. Of course Blue is the favorite but the brightness of white or even the shine of the silver would be a compliment to your collection.
