Is it time to get the Smurf?

Hello everyone,

I know most responses are going to be to get what the heart wants and do whatever makes sense for me. But I'm interested in whether or not this sounds like a good idea.

So here goes.. (I'll try and make this short)

I've been lusting over a smurf (not the new model with a black dial) for many many years but always kept putting it off because of the price. I kept telling myself I'll get it later on in life. This was when I was 36. During my watch collecting journey, I found that was purchasing blue watches just to scratch the itch of the smurf (blue omega seamaster, blue omega Aqua Terra, Deepsea blue, BLNR, Tudor black bay blue, Tudor fxd.). I have since sold many of them but still have the deepsea, BLNR and fxd.

Now I'm 45.

Last week I stumbled upon a smurf in like new condition with stickers, new warranty card dated 2020. As such, I'm thinking of selling off the deepsea, BLNR, fxd, adding a little bit more cash on top of that for the smurf.

For reference, my collection also consists of:
Rolex Daytona Ceramic (white)
Rolex GMT BLRO
Rolex Explorer 2 (polar)
Tudor black bay pro
Panerai 233
IWC big pilot 43
Omega Speedmaster
Omega Seamaster 300 Black/Black
Cartier Santos

Would you guys do this? In other words, is it worth selling 3-4 watches for the smurf?

Thanks for your input everyone and sorry for the long message
