Would anyone here trade these three......
plus a little cash for a BLRO?
........ .........hey Land, Sea, and Air. HaHa I really love all three of these watches and worry that I would regret it. I do wear all of them on a regular basis. But I just saw the BLRO in the precious metal and it's growing on me. Also, there are some days that I feel the need to consolidate but then there are other days where I enjoy having a variety to choose from (I have other non-Rolex watches too). Dr. Kerr, you're not allowed to vote. Just kidding but I think I know what you'll advise. LOL Thanks for your comments |

Yes - do it if you can wear the BLRO on a daily basis and it sings to you.
You have a nice collection - but the BLRO is a fantastic watch and I would personally go for it if I was in such a predicament |

I just traded the only two I have a Seamaster and exp for a new SD. I say why not, life is short! At least for me once the thought is in my head, it's to late. The BLRO is beautiful!

No way.
Keep the three watches, use the cash you would have added for a BLRO and use it to add a 1675 to cure your pepsi craving ( and add a nice vintage to your modern collection ;) ) |

I had a similar situation. I traded three for a BNIB smurf. I thought I might regret it but for me I would rather have a watch that I wear all of the time than the three that rarely saw wrist time.

Yes but don't think you need to add any more cash. And then you can start planning and saving for a new SS or what the hell else are you gonna do all day.

No way man. That's as solid a collection as one can have. Precious metal Rolex watches are something special but I'm not sure it worth liquidating a fantastic stainless steel trio.

Unless you find yourself not wearing them (and that does not seem to be the case), I'd have to say no...and I'm a big fan of the BLRO. Not a fan of the price tag associated with it being gold.

Wow, stunned here. Dudes, he said BLRO. Of course I WOULD. If it were a white Daytona id pause a lil more, but still move forward. I did similar trade for smurf.

Guess will echo the multiple No! above, but understand the way you feel as have been considering a 2 for 1 to get a SS Daytona.......

I would trade the Daytona and the DSSD and add cash to ensure you have a backup SS piece. Also would source used to lower the hit a little bit.
The BLRO is quite an amazing piece in the flesh. Regardless of having two GMTs I would go that route however the other option would be to keep the DSSD and trade the two relatively hot SS pieces you have as they will pull decent on a trade in where the DSSD may pull slightly lower than you are expecting. Just options to consider. |

No. You own two of the most iconic Rolexes available. The Batman GMT might even be there also. I'd at least wait until after Basel 2016. Who knows, Rolex might surprise everyone with some type of SS/WG GMT. I wouldn't trade three for one and I certainly wouldn't add cash to the deal if I did.

I would trade. Then add a Sub or SD4K for a great 2 watch rotation.
