It is a tough decision, you have a great collection but if it is an absolute necessary I would get rid of the CHNR (Pepsi and Batgirl make a great combo) then I would get rid of the Sub as you have too many sport models and you only need one green Rolex.

I'd part with one of the SS GMTs. You could also part with the DJ since you have a green piece. Explorer would be the first to go if it were me. Love the Silver Snoopy...

I'd lose the BLNR and Explorer
If you like the Explorer I'd pick two of the three GMTs to move along I just don't like repetition in a collection, and I just don't get excited for an Explorer |

I'd cut the Pepsi, the Snoopy and move the Explorer to a 36mm so you have some size variability. I'd also consider moving the DJ to a blue (or including that in the purge and moving it all to a DD40).

Would swapping the mint DJ for blue make sense ?
Maybe adding a no date over LV? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

A blue DJ would probably make a bit more sense as a dress watch, but anything goes in today’s fashion world. Do that, only if you really prefer the blue. LV better than ND! ![]() Kat Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Scrap BLNR and LV.
If you want to add a blue dial I’d also let the Snoopy go. You should easily be able to add either a Two Tone Sub LB or with proceeds from all 3 you’d have to be pretty close to a PM LB? Your 5 would be Sub LB, the green DJ, Explorer, BRLO, and CHNR. That’s a decent variety of colors, function, and metals. Although you’d be lacking a chrono… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

First of all what a great collection.
If that was me I’d struggle to let any go tbh. Probably the sensible thing would be keep the Pepsi (that’s an absolute non negotiable to me) Keep the speedie as it’s so different thsn the other super case Rolex pieces. So I’d say Datejust Sub CHNR for the win But you can’t lose really. I’d find letting any of them go difficult. Can see the logic of keeping the explorer as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Here's my thoughts on getting rid of two GMTs. First they're redundant. Secondly, it leaves you with a GMT, a DJ, a dive watch, an under the radar utility Rolex (Exp), and the Snoopy (which is a cool watch although a bit gimmicky even for Omega but never the less really popular). It took me a long time to find a Speedy I liked. For me it was a reverse panda Racing. I believe they definitely has a place in a collection. I'd pare down redundancy before getting rid of the Speedy.

Exactly….. Swap the DJ out for a blue dial ( or something that you crave. Swap the ExpMkii for a 36mm version for size variation . Keep the Pepsi as a daily …. I personally love it on an oyster for daily wear. Keep the green sub or trade for no date ? ..Explorer, Spring Diver & APRO.. |

Such a variety of opinions here, although I think there's some consensus that you should drop one of the GMTs (at least). I agree with that and I'd drop the CHNR, UNLESS you feel you need a gold watch for dressy occasions. Then I'd also drop either the Pespi or Batman, whichever spoke to you least.
A GMT on jubilee, a Datejust, a chrono Snoopy, a green sub, and an Explorer makes a mighty fine collection.

Why are you reducing, to raise funds for non watch things or watch things. Or just simply to streamline the collection.
Multiple GMTs are a problem if you’re trying to streamline. Keep one, I would say pepsi and sell the rest. I would also keep the sub. I would sell the DJ and either buy a DD, Daytona or a dress watch. The exp is lovely, but if you want brand variety I would sell it. A sub/gmt has you covered.

If that was my collection, I would get rid of the redundant movements. Keep one of the GMTs, get rid of the DD, kepp the sub date, and keep the Explorer

They’re all great pieces, I’d keep them if possible. I’m a big Omega fan, have come to really appreciate the Speedmaster, but not with a cartoon character on the dial.
And whatever you do, keep the Explorer; understated simplicity at its best.

Tough choices honestly. I think a common thread is the CHNR and I would tend to agree. Both of your other two GMT's are timeless and are so versatile. I'd personally keep the Explorer as it is amazing watch that does so many things well. Although I respect Omega and have a Speedy myself, it doesn't do as much for me as any of your other watches but at the moment it is your only chrono.
