Decisions decisions! BLNR vs 114060 as part of a collection w 116500LN & 126710BLRO
Hi guys,
The collection never stops shifting or being tweaked haha. I’m currently on the list for a new SS BLRO and word from my AD is that it will come soon enough. I currently have a BLNR as well as a black dial ceramic Daytona. My question is this: Should I keep the BLNR (and have 2 GMTs in the collection), or should I flip the BLNR for a 114060 and pocket some cash? Ever since I was a kid the Pepsi was what I identified as Rolex and I will be taking (and keeping) the Pepsi. By flipping the BLNR for a 114060 (I prefer the symmetry of the dial over the sub date), I will have the Rolex land/air/sea trio (which I think is kinda neat), and I will have 3 different functions (chrono/gmt/diver), with 3 different bracelets (pcl oyster/brushed oyster/jubilee). So i'm pretty exited about that! So why am I doubting the decision? On an individual watch basis, I like the BLNR better than a sub. If I were to own 1 watch, I would pick the BLNR every day over the sub. It just has flavor, while the sub is kinda vanilla - beautiful vanilla, but still vanilla. So knowing this, it's kinda hard to on purpose get rid of a watch that you like, for a watch you like less (individually), for the sake of a more “well-rounded” collection… I mean I don’t hate the sub… I lust after one regularly (which is why i'm considering this)! I just prefer the BLNR over it head to head. So I’m not sure if I should keep the BLNR knowing the Pepsi will be the new king in the collection. Either way the BLNR/114060 will play 2nd fiddle to the Pepsi while the Daytona is more for special occasions or Fridays and is not in the “everyday rotation”. Thoughts?
