I’ve decided it might be time for a change, and I thought a vote would be fun/insightful. My current watch rotation:
116500 Daytona (black)
126710 Pepsi GMT
126600 Sea-Dweller 43
Enough to make anyone (me included) very happy. My dilemma, however, is that:
1. I find I always grab the Daytona or Pepsi over the SD43.
2. I don’t feel I have a perfect GADA/tool/travel watch. The Daytona and Pepsi are too flashy; the SD43 is too big (and also a little flashy)
3. I became a dad in June (hell yeah!), and I need an old guy watch. I got my wife a TT Datejust as a push present, and daddy needs some gold as well!
Here’s what I’m thinking:
Sell: the SD43
Buy: a black 16570 Explorer II and a 18038 Day-Date (on a leather strap)
So what do you think: am I a watch savant, or am I making a grave mistake?
Your vote: Sell the SD43 and get the Explorer II and Day-Date
