Would you do this?

[Madison1]

Hey all,

I am trying to simplify my life and would like a watch that I can grow old with. I am looking at my next purchase in a similar vein to buying a house that is slightly too big knowing with children etc. You will grow into it.

My current collection is a speedy, SD43, Batman and Rootbeer. This has been carefully curated and I have been through many watches I didn't gel with.

I am thinking about consolidating to 3 watches. Speedy (chrono), SD43 (Diver) and then trading the two GMTs for a Day Date. I have the hots for the eissen...(to save my poor spelling let's just call it the stone dial).

I think with having two steel watches I would be covered for all occasions. Ultimately it's my choice but it would be great to hear thoughts on the following:

Has anyone traded up to take advantage of the current market?

Did anyone move into PM and regret it?

Are PM wearers conscious about the potential "image" of wearing a gold watch?

Will it be tough to reverse the decision given the upward trend of most models?

Thanks all
