What a nightmare...good luck to you bud.
Yes, at this time I would need to consolidate to one rolex. I have a very small collection of a bvlgari and an portuguesier. Either watch would complete and fill the void of the sport aspect; however, I do find the gmt to be more useful than a tachymeter... but a daytona is a daytona and I am torn......

Why is it not an option to sell either of your other two watches? Why do you have to sell a Rolex specifically?

As a serious answer, I'd probably stick with the Daytona since the GMT is easier to replace at MSRP.
Haha. Most of her shoes are nearly a decade old as she protects them really well. I'm afraid that respond wouldnt work on her. However, she is looking for a nice ladies gmt...

For a daily watch I say Pepsi. Love my Daytona but my BLNR is much easier to read and has a date. More practical watch in my opinion. But like the others have said KEEP BOTH. A great pair of watches.

Let her wear your GMT. Problem solved.

There are no ladies' GMTs. The closest might be a Yacht-Master 37 if you're after a ladies' size sports model.

Shes in a very conservative industry/ profession. Quite frankly, shes very bias towards rolex and probably wouldnt wear one. I tried to get her to wear the daytona instead but hesitated as it wasn't for her.... wife vs rolex.. either of which is hard to substitute and find in an AD....

Ouch.

I'd keep both watches and work that out some other way.

Good luck.

You can’t be serious! If you need money, do something more practical like selling a kidney. You only need one of those. Can’t live without at least 2 Rolex.

My wife encourages my mechanical timepiece collection. We also share, so sometimes she wears one of them. OP needs to share more perhaps? Buy some white, purple, and / or pink Barton straps so she can also match her outfit. Am sure OP might need to share his hobbies with wife, yes?

True Story: The most recent purchase was an OMEGA 50th. I passed on it when AD offered, yet wife knows my love of NASA and said i should buy it (so did).

Maybe it's not the wife, it's you?
