X2. Unless it has sentimental value, then keep it.

My advice....(for what it's worth!).....never ever ever sell your first Rolex......EVER....mine has to be the most special purchase I ever made.....I could never sell it.....it is a 1986 DateJust 16030....it is near enough "retired" from service now but has been through hell and high water with me......it deserves some time off now.....but every now and then I get it out of the box and wear it....I get the feeling it thinks to itself "yep, I can still do it and do it well....maybe I need a bit more rest between tours of duty but I can still hack it with the big boys"....it is a very very special piece in my collection........the AK has such fantastic history....if I had one I could never part with it......trust me, if you sell it you will regret it down the line.....I have only ever sold one watch and that was only because I had a "double" and wanted to round out my collection......keep it I say!

If you're 100% sure that you won't miss it, and your wife doesn't want it, sell it and replace it with something you DO love!

Sell it to your wife!

If you're not going to wear it and you're not sentimental about it, sell it and use the proceeds towards something you really want.

I changed my mine, I just don't want to lose a pile of cash on this one. I think I am going to hold it for a few years.
