Lately I have been thinking about a white gold day date 36mm. They seem to be a good value right now compared to everything else.

Value is not the reason I have been thinking about the DD, I also have a 36mm Exp 1 and I really like the size on my wrist. Secondly I really like the president bracelet.

The issue is I would need to move some pieces from my current collection to get a DD. My collection is Sub heavy but I really enjoy wearing each watch in my collection.

My question is would you move two SS (or 3) for one PM? Here is my collection.

Yes, especially for a DD.
No bracelet like a President

Yes. I’d sell the Omega and 16610 for a PM DD. That’ll leave you with a pretty diversified collection.

nevergiveup · 11 January 2020, 06:50 PM

Yes time for a DD to many divers and black dials .

agsstructures · 11 January 2020, 06:57 PM

I like the thinking. Love the DD36, in fact I picked up one in November and haven’t worn anything since.

Token74 · 11 January 2020, 07:22 PM

I would bin out the LV and the Explorer.

Can’t beat gold!

Would move the the Omega and Explorer - The DD could replace the latter

PepsiBezel · 11 January 2020, 07:47 PM

If you like the DD and it suits your budget, sure. If I had to move two from your collection I’d move the Ultraman while it is popular and the 14060. I’d keep the LV, and maybe source a black bezel to switch it up if you miss the 14060.

Good luck!

bobabreath · 11 January 2020, 08:30 PM

Keep the LV. Everything else can be up for consideration.

peterpl · 11 January 2020, 09:08 PM

I'd get rid of the entire collection except the Kermit to be honest.

Pw92676 · 11 January 2020, 09:22 PM

I think that would make for a good change up. Keep us posted.

Gerardus · 11 January 2020, 09:29 PM

Go for the DD! I would keep the LV en 14060.

Stevec14 · 11 January 2020, 09:30 PM

Keep the LV, ultraman and ceramic sub. Trade the other 2 out. That will be a terrific collection.

myporsche · 11 January 2020, 10:02 PM

Keep the LV and either the ceramic sub or explorer, I prefer keeping the explorer since already having the LV sub and you said you prefer 36mm. Sell everything else and get a DD preferably another dial besides black, you would have a great collection.

I did. I unloaded a sub date, DJ, navitimer, and a PAM for a YG DD. Best and worst move I ever made. Best in that my DD is now my go-to watch, and the rest of my collection gets limited wear time. And therein lies why it was my worst move, lol. I have to force myself to wear my other watches, so much so that I have lately been pondering unloading my daytonaC and bluesy for a WG DD to go along with my YG DD.

If I were you, I would trade everything but that Kermit for the DD.

Hollie_Rollie · 11 January 2020, 10:43 PM

I like the dd36 a lot. However I’d go DD40 because I like the dial variations better. I’m hoping for Rolex to release more dial variations on the dd36 this Basel. If they do a nice sunburst blue dial without the diamonds (similar to the dial on the WG DD40) that’d be my choice

1William · 11 January 2020, 11:03 PM

Get the numbers for your watches on a trade and see what needs to go to cover the DD. Decide if you are willing to part with the watches and move on. Nice collection and I like the Kermit and the Ultraman.

JayHantz · 11 January 2020, 11:06 PM

I would keep the Speedy and the LV.

ap1 · 11 January 2020, 11:43 PM

Sell Explorer and black sub. I’d move one more and seek a dd40

I’m of the same opinion.

You’ll always need a diver I agree ...

Everything else Is up for trade to help acquire the DD36.

Mr. Miami · 12 January 2020, 12:03 AM

Smart move you are thinking of making. Personally I prefer YG DD 36mm but the WG looks great too. As others have mentioned, the president bracelet is sweet!

Claven2 · 12 January 2020, 12:28 AM

You don't need more than one sub unless you intend to collect them. Pick one. Sell the other two.

Calatrava r · 12 January 2020, 12:33 AM

I would keep the Kermit and sell everything else for the DD and pocket some cash hopefully.

MasonDixon · 12 January 2020, 12:41 AM

Ceramic Sub and Explorer stay, sell the rest and get the Day-Date.

denmanproject · 12 January 2020, 12:52 AM

Tough choices but PM is worth it

If you end up with a DD, LV and Exp would be pretty sweet combo

Bigblu10 · 12 January 2020, 01:04 AM

Yes go for it. But if you can wear a Sub then go with a DD 40. It just looks better and the dial options are great

Danny83 · 12 January 2020, 01:24 AM

Sell Speedy and No date ceramic
