EXPERT HELP needed!

I have the opportunity to trade my PAM and OQ for a 16610LV.
Should I do it?
Its unopen papers but other than that brand new.
I'm trying to consolidate my collection a bit now that i got my tissots back and there is just not enough days to wear them all!
I love the PAM.
I think ill sell the OQ either way.
Is this a fair trade or should i look elsewhere?
Im having trouble flipping the PAM.
Let me know guys

and NO SMART ASS REMARKS about my being a bigger flipper than JJ, tossers. :P

I dont know your current collection, But the Sub is always a nice addition if you dont have an everyday SS watch

Well afraid only you can have the final decision if you really want the 16610LV go for it.But the O/Q could become quite collectable,if you love your Pam then keep it.Have a think about it sure the LV is a fine watch,so is the Pam and O/Q.

I thought you really wanted an AP? If so, I say sell the watches and wait to get the AP you really want. I find doing trades usually don't work out 100%.

Am I correct in saying that you have only owned the Pam for 5 minutes?

I am not familiar with the PAM or OQ, but the 16610LV is commanding an above retail price right now. Essential jewelers out of CA is advertising a retail of $6395, but asking $6795. It's a close call especially when asking a diehard Rolex fan.

wow, you go through watches quick. Didn't you just get the PAM?

I'd keep what ya got.

if you gotta have the LV, you'd be bettter off selling them outright & then buying the LV.

Are you sure you want to let the OQ go? They're a unique Rolex and not likely to go down in price.

Is the the PAM that you recently bought and were worried about it getting lost in the mail?
I'm not 100% sure it's a fair trade.
LV's are a little more common in Canada that the States.
If it's investments your looking at I'd keep the OQ.
I say that eventhough I prefer the LV over the OQ.

As much as I like the LV, I like Al's thinking here.
