Hypothetical Trade

To be clear, this has not be offered to me but something I am just thinking about if I would accept if it were (I am not even going to provide the side I would be on to keep this question fully unbiased).

Which side of the following transaction would you rather be on:

Side A - Receives Platinum Daytona (116506)

Side B - Receives Rolex Smurf (116619LB) + SS Daytona Ceramic White Dial (116500LN)

I’m not sure what it works out to money wise but I’ll go against the grain and say A, easily for me.

I'm a sucker for an ice blue dial and baguette markers. Making a watch out of platinum isn't so easy and the color is very warm.

Either is a great choice! For me, it would depend on what else I had in the collection. If starting from zero, I’d go with option B. If I had a couple other Rolex already...definitely A

A, only because I don't like the 116619LB, if I could trade that for a 16618LB (yellow gold/blue). I would take B all day long.
