definitely keeping the BLNR if i were you. Dont think pepsi and blnr are 'clashing' designs at all. BLNR also a versatile watch and can hold value as well (if not better) than the 114060

But it fits and feels perfect as opposed to the 114060 which feels awkward to me.

I’d hold onto the BLNR until your blro arrives. It wouldn’t be the first time an AD said it will arrive soon enough

Then once you have the blro, I’d flip the BLNR for the Sub

I’ve got both. Won’t sell either.

Same DNA but extremely different.

Gonna keep the BLNR for now. Going to take it "1 challenge at a time" as someone mentionned earlier. Once the BLRO is in, i’ll revisit the 114060 question (or LVc), but definitely no SD HAHA. I think i can add the LVc honnestly... different colorway, different bracelet, different bezel/function... i’d be ok w that. But the 114060 would be a swap for the BLNR. Currently at 5 pieces, BLRO will be 6, and if i add LVc it will be 7... i like to wear all my pieces at least once a week. 7 is really borderline for me. Just hate the idea of owning such awesome pieces and not giving them enough wrist time.

For me, this decision is pretty easy: Your Daytona is a quintessential Rolex, your incoming BLRO will be a quintessential Rolex (somewhat debatable here, I acknowledge), and a 114060 would be a quintessential Rolex. Add a yellow gold Day-Date on a President bracelet, and call it done!

You are absolutely right as far as my tastes go. Between the blnr and blro, its not even close - blro wins my a mile. Love my daytona ceramic as well. And have always wanted a sub. I much prefer the "quintesential” pieces! But, the blnr may be a classic in the making. Might have to just add the LVc and call it a day. No YG DD for me haha. Love the look but right now its not on the radar yet.

Flip for the no date, coolest looking sub and the SS Pepsi is much cooler than the Batman for me, so would definitely flip for the sub, you will have the coolest sub and the coolest GMT, best of the bunch IMO
