Those who are saying to get rid of the Silver Snoopy…yall are crazy! That’s an amazing piece.

Only my opinion but every collection should have some sort of Speedy.

Also, I’d add a steel, blue dial SkyDweller on Jubilee.

This is easy for me- I'd sell the green datejust and Omega. The other watches are too good to sell IMO. :)

If you need to sell two, I would get rid of Batgirl and Rootbeer. You already have the best GMT (IMO obviously). Keep the Sub for outdoors, Explorer for something understated, DJ for a little bling and Snoopy for something cool and different.

I agree, but the more I think of it I would not get rid of any of them. Great collection just the way it is!

Thank you.

Sell the DJ, CHNR, and BLNR. Get a blue dial Vacheron Overseas. Done.

The CHNR is one of the few two tones I like but I voted to move it on. You’re getting that answer because:

1) a lot of people don’t like TT watches
2) you have 3 GMT’s so we are all trying to remove redundancy and that’s a less popular model than your others
3) you specifically said you wanted to keep the BLRO so that makes it even easier to let the CHNR go

I’m just not a fan of rose gold and the color brown on a watch. The CHNR has both.

If I’m buying a TT watch, I want yellow gold and blue.

I think WG for a PM is a bit of waste. Rose gold I can get behind but no blue dial options.

…Oh, and I’d drop the Explorer and Rootbeer, and swap DJ for a blue dial.

This make sense too
