Trading 2 Rolex and 2 Tudor for PP

Not sure it if is more Rolex or PP forum, but I thought it's more Rolex to me as I plan to depart the following for a 6007G PP.

1. Rolex Gold Skydweller OF on Champagne dial - as it is a bit large for me. I wanted it before as I want OF models, and this was easier to get back then, now I got OF Daytona, so it is getting less wrist time.
2. Rolex DJ41 Chocolate dial - smooth bezel and oyster bracelet. I have a DJ41 Wimbledon, so wear less now. Only downside is my wife have a lady DJ also chocolate dial, so kind of looks like a pair. But she rarely wares of lady DJ anyway as well.
3. Tudor BB58 Bronze... only wore it twice. Bronze seemed to be not for me.
4. Tudor Pelagos 39 - brought it back then when I sold my sub-no date. But was re-offered by my AD with a Sub date, so it looks very similar.

The 4 watches above to be sold to grey and buying 6007G at AD seemed to be a big trade, and losing a lot... about 40% discount against original retail, but I guess it's the journey of watch trading. Knowing the 6007G at grey is about USD8-10K lower than retail, which is also a factor. But I have also get my watches from AD - for the experience and most definitely the relationship.

Not really asking for comments, but just want to share it out to watch people out here. No one at home, or my mates understands.

I'm usually really on board to trade 'up', but I'd say no on this. PP for me, is where it's at if you want complications, a Nautilus or an old school Calatrava. This one doesn't do it for me. I also think that YG OF SkyD is amazing. That PP will feel like a toy compared to that.

I know you said you weren't looking for comments OP, but I'm echoing the others on this one - yes to a trade of watches you don't wear/love for one that you will, but personally not for a 6007G.

Each brand, even PP has its lows. 6007G is one of them…

As long as you’re happy… That’s all that counts. I’m all for trading up, consolidating , etc.… But I wouldn’t do this trade for that model.

Man just don’t get it - not the best looking watch IMO. Giving up so much.

Not a huge AP nor PP fan because I don't like their design aesthetic. I could find a DJ that would make me happier than owning that PP. A boiler gauge DJ would be more enticing to me. The hearts wants what the heart wants. Good luck to you.

I don’t think 6007G will age well, even in the short term. I recommend a 5226G or AP SS code, both have cool case designs and interesting dials at a similar price point and category, but ymmv.

Definitely not the 6007G --- Get an AP Royal Oak instead..
Whoever put the PP name on that watch, needs to be arrested...
