Seeking guidance and wisdom

[flacht126710]

Hello! Longtime lurker and finally decided to post/make an account.

Seeking some advice and guidance from the fine people of THE Forum.

I've got a good relationship with my local AD (BLRO, 116500LN, 116515 Baguette dial are the big ones, a few other pieces as well). I was lucky enough to get a 116500LN black dial right before they were discontinued. I like the watch, but haven't bonded to it quite like my BLRO which I think remains my favorite daily wear/modern Rolex.

I'd been pining my local Porsche dealer for an allocation for a car for some time and never thought it would come to fruition, as the model is due to have it's final run this year and next and demand is wild. Well, they got me an allocation to build the car to my spec and I'm elated to say the least.

I've toyed with the idea of moving on from the 116500LN to help fund the Porsche....but is that crazy? I know I'll never be able to replace it at the retail price, but maybe my AD could get me a 126500 if I really ended up missing it? I think the only thing giving me pause on moving on from the Daytona is the fact that once it's out of my collection, it's gone for good, at least in 116500 guise. And from everything I've seen in here, you kind of NEVER sell a steel Daytona if you got it.

Torn to say the least. Advice and wisdom welcome from the greater good.
