Trade preowned Rolex gmtc LN full set plus random serial 14060M full set for Brand New black dial SS Rolex Daytona

To sweeten the comp, this deal is straight from AD and not trusted seller, so cappucino and/or diet coke is an added bonus..:(

Joking aside, deal is more than fair if not a "no brainer" from MONETARY perspective, no trusted seller could match it ever, however conceptually, I am struggling with it

Is it worth it to give up two great SS references that I love for one great reference that I love and have been a fan of for some time now? Would I regret it after honeymoon period?

What are your thoughts...Would you..?

It just depends if you will love the 1 watch more than the 2.

I'm a big fan of less is more, personally.

TimeRookie · 22 February 2016, 06:12 AM

I'm not a huge Daytona fan myself. That's not a deal I would do. You have 2 great watches there. I'd reconsider....

tommywerdz · 22 February 2016, 06:14 AM

I wouldn't do it.

Keep the GMT, trade Sub, and add cash for the Daytona.

rmlovett1 · 22 February 2016, 06:16 AM

Are those the only two you have?

If you're good with just one.....the Daytona is beautiful, but wears different/looks smaller on the wrist, but covers all bases! Great watch!

I think if you were to remove the 14060 from the deal, and see how much you'd have to shell out then, you'll get a better idea of what the valuations for your watches are. It's probably monetarily a great offer, but going from two to one is hard in some people's eyes. For me, I'd rather have one great watch than two really nice watches.

Duey · 22 February 2016, 06:18 AM

No !!

droptopman · 22 February 2016, 06:20 AM

I wouldn't but I am a Sub and GMT guy.
As for value of the trade, seems fair.

sickened1 · 22 February 2016, 06:27 AM

Personally I wouldn't. Also not a big fan of black dial Daytona but that's just me.

Aceldama · 22 February 2016, 06:29 AM

I'd get more use out of the Sub and GMT...

Daryl · 22 February 2016, 06:41 AM

I think I will not do it.. Just save up for a Daytona

Speaking from experience...tho not traded for a Daytona ...you'll mis the simplicity and beauty of the 14060

DCheeta · 22 February 2016, 06:51 AM

Sell just one of your watches - either the Sub or the GMT - and get a white Daytona. That will give you a combo with maximum variety.

karmatp · 22 February 2016, 06:54 AM

NO WAY

I am not a Daytona fan at all. Your GMT and Sub are great watches, don't let them go. Go buy a Speedy Pro if you want a chrono.

Completely agree with this sentiment.

Chronos just don't do it for me, and the Daytona is no exception.

billykmd · 22 February 2016, 06:59 AM

No. I would see the difference and save up. I think you may miss the other two for one watch.

Copasetic · 22 February 2016, 07:10 AM

Answers to these types of questions are often answered on the basis of how much the poster likes what the OP is giving up or getting.

I think that's totally subjective and really up to you and we can't decide for you. I agree with those that prefer one great piece to two good ones. But only you can decide which are merely good and which are great.

Having said all that, if the dollars work in your favor, and you say they do, you could always add a less expensive watch (than the Daytona) back down the road if you "need" a second one.

Seaswirl · 22 February 2016, 07:13 AM

I'd do it unless you love the GMT and Sub. Alternatively, keep the Sub and bring some cash. Daytona, to me, is just a better all around watch.

FTX I · 22 February 2016, 07:17 AM

Crazy

mjclark32 · 22 February 2016, 08:03 AM

No for me, unless you're dying for a Daytona and can't see another way

AK1984 · 22 February 2016, 08:10 AM

Sometimes i feel my sub and LN gmt are redundand, even though they are different watches

I would not. However, I'm known to add and not sell anything. Save and add the Daytona.
