No. Maybe the 14060 or the 114060. Maybe. But keep them all.

Would you keep the Red Sub as the one watch - and sell everything else?

Great watch but I need something I can bang around in and that just doesn't seem like the one for me. A great piece but as was said earlier; I'd worry about its water resistance too much to use it as purposed. I doubt I'd keep all three subs and two Exp IIs however; I'd likely thin the herd some down to one ND and one Exp II (and maybe even one GMT).

You have an awesome instagram account! Your 1680 is my favorite followed by a close tie between the 114060 and the 14060. Can't decide which of those two I'd pick.

Keep the BLNR with the jubilee strap and you'll have the perfect pair. The contemporary and the classic.

Sell the SubC and the OP. That way you keep two GMTS, two subs, and two EXIIs AND keep a nice balance of vintage and modern in all spheres. Use the Sub C and OP money to buy a rough 16600 for a daily beater.

It surely could serve as "the one" but you have some great pieces that would be missed. If it ever happened, keep the 114060 for back up.

I agree, seems like you are mostly done with Rolex now so move onto PP or AP or Lange.

I couldn't live with the red as the only one. I would keep at least one maybe two of the others for harder daily use.

Maybe keep one modern piece. Then you have a nice pair of vintage and current.

As a Red owner I couldn't make it my only watch. Pair it up with a 1675 or 16710 then that would work

An envious collection! Losing any piece may end up in regrets.

You have a stunning collection and worked to put it together for a reason, sure your could own just the 'red' but why risk wearing it in the water, etc...the value is in the dial, have one water intrusion and you'd wish you had the sub for a day at the beach.
