Trade Advice

[john_peter33]

Would you consider trading a 6263 big red and AP 15202 + cash for a 5711r?

[jgottsman11]

not so much a fan of the 5711r just for the fact that it has the older style clasp. go for the 5712r and then we're in business

[TunaTuna]

I'm not sure a two for one is ever a good idea, especially with cash. Seems like you will be taking a huge loss.

[agsstructures]

Hell no

[fredfiga]

No way!

[Pw92676]

I would not

[inadeje]

I don’t think I would do that trade to be perfectly honest

[0nly5iv3Digits]

I hope you’re not serious…

[ChetBaker]

I would not. You’re being taken for a ride and I would never go near that dealer again.

[Chiboy]

Wow, I seldom ever weigh in on possible trades. I don't know about current values, but in terms of personal taste, I would say this is the least desirable trade I have ever seen on here.

[brandrea]

No I would not

[GB-man]

Share a pic of the 6263. Condition on that is everything.

[john_peter33]

The condition is excellent. I’m not actually working with a dealer but prices of the 6263 have come down quite a bit and the 5711r in excellent condition seems to be around 150-170. So I wanted to get a sense of what you all thought.

Do you all have other suggestions to add the 5711r?

Having trouble posting a pic. My insta is john_peter33.

If you bought it pre-owned, and have the full set, I wouldn't trade it for anything less than 2.5 million USD.

That is what I will do if I own the watch.

In short, I wouldn't trade it at all if I have one.

On a more serious note, the 6263 is a nice watch. A good condition 6263 is much rarer than a 5711/1R. I certainly hope to get a 6263 someday down the road....

[goog53]

Heck no, keep the 6263

[john_peter33]

I am not the original owner and it’s watch only. Purchased in 2017 from Michael Morgan.

[JMac6]

Please, do not do that trade.

Hell, I'd even be sad to lose the 15202.

[Calatrava r]

I am not a fan of brown dials so I would be a no.

[inadeje]

The 6263 is very nice

[subtona]

There can not be a winner on this scenario.

Damned if you do or don’t.

3 very desirable pieces.

I think I would stick w what u have.

[john_peter33]

I plan to at least wait until watches and wonders and see if anything comes out for the 50th anniversary of the nautilus. Maybe a yellow gold 5811?

[Watchdoyouwant?]

Don't do it. I'm not a big Daytona fan, but this is not even a close call.

[john_peter33]

Thanks everyone. Giving me pause and not what I expected. Part of me wants to get out of a vintage piece and into something modern bec it’s hard to service the Daytona and nervous so much value is in the vintage pieces of the watch.

[aa_watch]

Keep the 6263
Much rarer then 15202 and Nautilus.

I may be alone in this but the idea of owning a pre Zenith Daytona has always left me cold.

Why not sell the Daytona and keep the 15202 assuming it is a later style blue dial with long hour markers?

Personally I am not interested in 5711/1R as I am not into brown dials. No way I'd give up my 5711 blue plus cash for 5711/1R. If anything I'd get a 3711/1G but for daily wear steel is just fine.

[john_peter33]

The 15202 is from July 2020 and hardly worn. I do love both my Daytona and 15202 but have always considered a nautilus as a grail and with secondary prices still high I have to trade to get the price down. I do love the brown dial but respect all the personal choices.

[ChetBaker]

Dont trade. Sell and then buy. You will be leaving a lot of money on the table for the sake of convenience.

[john_peter33]

I know that’s the way to go to sell them but honestly seems like a minefield and I’ve never had any experience selling privately.
