New (but good) problem???

I just purchased a Pepsi GMT II from my very good friend who is a preowned watch dealer. I benefit from GREAT deals on watches. I love the watch and it a great addition to my Plat YM and Breitling Mark VI. I previously had a TT Zenith Daytona that went missing via Fed EX while being reconditioned. I made out fine on the loss financially but lost my Daytona. This week I have the chance to purchase a 2002 TT white face Daytona for $5800. It does not have papers but is in great shape but could use a buff and brush as it has been worn. I do miss my Daytona.

Probably do not need three Rolexes and a Breitling (or maybe I do). I do not need to liquidate one to purchase but really need advice???? It would make for a nice "collection" I think.

Talk me off the ledge

Don't hold back on the Daytona if you know its genuine. Think about keeping the Breitling after you are settled down.....don't be too quick to flip, as its also a very nice watch. There are no demerits given for having one or two too many (whatever 'too many' means to a WIS???!). Luck!
