I wouldn't. Not a fan of plain dial Nautilus. Much prefer 5726

I'd do the trade if the GMT were purchased preowned at a substantial discount. I prefer the Nautilus to the GMT even in precious metal.

 Preference for white metal here.

i don't know...it's more of a question of what you like. While I'm a huge fan of the 116718, I can understand how some would be attracted to the Patek.
I would entertain this trade...not sure if I would do it, but I would entertain it... |

I agree that it's a fair trade in terms of value, BUT I would not do it as I much prefer a precious metal Rolex than a SS Patek.

That's a tough call. Having tried the 5711 recently, I have to say I'd lean that way! Very different pieces as mentioned already.

Yes. Yes I would.
For one, I'm the only guy on the forum who doesn't appreciate GMT. Second of all, a Pro Series on a bracelet in gold is not comfortable for me. Third, I traded a 116509 WG Daytona for a "lowly" 5167 Aquanaut, in steel, on a rubber strap. I'm as happy as can be. Some don't like or don't "get" Patek Philippe. That's okay. I know some Omega guys who don't "get" Rolex. |

I love that reference in YG, so, no, I wouldn't. Yeah I know, it's a Patek, but I have gold fever right now, plus that's one of the best looking references in YG in my opinion.
