Given the choice: 1 PM & 1 SS or 3 SS of your choice?

For instance would you rather have a BLRO + DD40 (2 watches) or ?

DaytonaC, BLRO and the new Sub. (3 watches).

Curious whether quantity is at times better.

I've had all SS and all PM Rolexes at one time in my collection but I like variety so I have a little bit of both now, works best for me.

I agree with the mix and match approach if you’re able. SS + PM can be a lot of fun and provide diverse functionality.

Having consolidated myself (1 SS + 1 TT for a PM), highly recommend the PM/SS path.

I’d go three SS, get a 126334 on jubilee to kill the DD itch.

1 PM and 1 SS is good

Nothing feels like a solid gold Rolex on your wrist. Those that have never experienced it wont know.

Easy, PM & a SS would be a great duo. Honestly though, I have one PM and am pretty damn satisfied.
