Hi guys, I am looking to add a new piece to my collection in the next month. I really can't decide between 2008 milgauss or 1991 sub no date? I have 16013 datejust and 2001 explorer 2. Which one do you think will complement my collection best? I prefer the look of the no date sub however the milgauss is a lot newer

If the 91 sub is in good condition and is priced right, I'd go with the sub (and it sounds like you would too). Best of luck

Since you prefer the look of the sub, go with that one. Down the road, add the millie to perfectly balance out your collection-if the love is still there.

Get the sub since you like it better and have it serviced if needed.

The milgauss I have got down to 3900 Euros and the sub I have got down to 3500 Euros both I think are good buys as both mint condition with box and papers. I haven't tried the milgauss on yet though I think I may have my answer if I try it on. I have the urge to sell everything and buy 2 tone daytona? Is it better to stick with trying to create a collection?

I have also bargained the price of a 1993 2 tone daytona down to 6600 Euros again mint with box and papers, however I would have to sell at least my explorer 2

So many choices, so little time

Eventually you'll get into all of those choices if you're going to become a collector. Saving up is usually the best route and get the one that appeals most now. Because you know you'll eventually get them all. So prolly the Sub is next addition for now.

Or not be concerned about selling a piece here and there is you're going to be a serial flipper. In that case the Daytona would be a great option.

I vote for the 1991 No-Date Sub! That's exactly what I have.

I bought it from the original owner with all the original paperwork, bill of sale. It was also just serviced, which I highly recommend to you if yours hasn't been serviced recently.

Hard to beat a no date sub...I will be wearing mine today and looking forward to it.
