I would

I don't like the green submariner, the GMT and Chronograph are far more useful complications

All mentioned financing options aside, it’s a no-brainer to me. The Daytona is awesome

Daytona IF you like it and have tried one on. Some people think it is too small on their wrist. But you could flip it if that is the case so buy it anyway.

The Daytona would feel much smaller on the wrist after wearing a hulk. There’s a chance a new hulk could come from Basel. I would make the trade and then decide whether or not you trade back later.

Keep the LV and the BLNR and buy the Daytona on a credit card.

Decide which one(s) of the three you want to keep before you have to pay off the card.

All three will give you a nice uplift on sale.

Its a win win for you regardless.

Personally, I wouldn't but then I don't see the value of having a chronograph. I have one in my collection already and never have any use for the stopwatch. However, I do love dials and for me the hulk has one of the most beautiful dials of any watch. Hope that helps .

Would you miss it?

The Daytona may seem like the most desirable piece to the masses but is it the most desirable to you?

If you let your Hulk go and then regret it later you may struggle to get another from an AD at retail.

Good luck which ever way you decide

Did you try the Daytona on? I think it's the best fitting watch I have. But if your are use to the bigger case fit you may not like how it wears. I have both an ND and WG sub and they both have a very different feel and look to the Daytona. I would do it in a sec but I really love the Daytona's look and fit. PS - Don't do it for speculation, buy what you like.

I wouldn't sell the Sub but that's entirely up to you. Sounds like you'll end up missing it.
If it were me (which it's not) I'd sell the BLNR and be left with the Daytona and Sub.

I'd sell the BLNR over the hulk in this case, even though I almost always prefer BLNR over hulk. Why? Because you're getting another black dial, and oyster is better than jubilee on a sport model (IMHO). Unless of course you love the BLNR, then never mind, but like everyone said don't sell the hulk.

Tough choice. But I will keep all. Save money or borrow money and keep it all.
Good luck :)

Why not keep them all. Each has their own reasons to keep. I think you would regret selling the Hulk.

No brainer unless you dont like the Daytona, free money, risk ad relation. I would sell the gmt2 instead do. Hulk could be discontinued the coming years and who knows what will happen with pricing. Eather way you go you cannot loose. Just sell the daytona and buy your hulk/gmt2 back and pocket the difference in case of regrets.
