SD4K is the keeper for sure. If you don’t have to- don’t sell it! It will jump in value even more.
Hulk... < Kermit.
I’d do horrible things for a Kermit.
I don’t like the all green dial and bezel at all.
AP. If you’re already thinking about it, just do it.

I have all 3. I need to free up cash.
Yep, I’m saying keep the SD4K and sell the others.

People either love it or hate it, and I can’t understand why. The dial is fantastic.
It's not the dial, which is nice. It's the lifeless off color green bezel, which is made doubly worse juxtaposed next to the nice green dial.
The bezel definitely looks different depending on the light. I can understand the lifeless issue in flat light.
Zack had a mod where he got an LV and a regular Sub and swapped bezels. Both of the resultant watches looked awesome. The modern TT and YG Blue Subs suffer from the off color bezel just as much. I guess I just miss the nice sunburst dial + vivid aluminum inserts.
You are a 5 digit guy. Nothing wrong with that. My 16710 and 16610 are keepers. I lean more to the 6 digits depending on reference. I do see a 6 digit TT Bluesy or a TT Rootbeer in my future at some point.
I really dig the Rootbeer. It could be my first modern watch (besides the Daytona).

That’s the way I’m leaning.

Our favorite "trusted" seller just listed a new BLNR at $24k. If that is the trend (where normal people have no ability anymore to buy from an AD and instead are just scalped by forum dealers), I'm priced out of the market.
Then sell the AP and keep both Rolex
You already M the wife, so F her sister. ?
LOL
I hate my wife, and her sister hates me!
Bang the mom.
I’d go for a niece

Sell the SDc and get a 16600, which I think is better (although if you brush the bezel like Wu did, then it's maybe my favorite watch ever). Keep the Hulk as it's money in the bank if you ever need it to be. The Diver is awesome, but wears massively to me.

Stay away from the sister. You don’t even have to do anything and your still the one that’s going to get fucked.....just say’n. Let me know if you decide to sell the SD4K. I’m still planning on buying one in very near future.
