Yeah I’d do it. The opportunity to liquidate some of those is worth giving up the Sub.

I totally agree. Seems like their is 3-4 for keeping the sub and the explorer. I think a sub, explorer and Daytona trio is almost perfect.

I would flip everything you have now, not just a few chosen. Get 116519LN, and have the remaining fund prepared for the new Sub with the new movement and other new Rolex models coming in 2019.

i'd say okay if it were the 116509. Need the WG Bracelet. but keep the 114060 and let the YM go. I'd try to keep the submersible too.

If the Daytona will be a keeper, I’d do it. If, being honest with yourself, you think there’s a good chance you’ll flip down the road, I wouldnt. Also agree with everyone here that if you’re going to keep anything from that group, it should be the sub. Everything else is pretty easy to replace.

Haha, the new Sub is what many members here expect (or rather, hope) for 2019 or 2020. And also some other sport models.

To me you’re on the right track but the Rubber bracelet is a compromise. I’d keep the sub only, sell everything else, and go for the 116509.

As others have said...keep the Sub! The WG Daytona is a fantastic watch, but I’d keep the SS sub (if possible) to have variety
