Hello fellow members I was offered a Patek 5066 Aquanaut only box no papers and unknown service history.
I would be trading a white gold Daydate 18039 that was just serviced by Rolex
And a planet ocean 45 8500 also just serviced by omega.
All inputs are appreciated

Thanks

No way
That patek is boring AF and not half as versatile or robust of beautiful as the other two

My sentiments as well.

And I like the abbreviation AF

I would not make the trade. I'd rather have two GREAT watches that I know the history of than one watch with unknown variables just because it says PP on the dial. I am not an Aquanaut fan, though.

I would never consider the trade.

+1.

No way. Nautilus, maybe.

Bmw1 · 1 May 2020, 10:31 AM

Btw I have a 5711 blue dial, and if I go through with this I would not have a Rolex any more, the collection will be 5711, 5066, 15400 black, Oris skeleton. The Oris will have to find a new home in exchange for a daily Rolex like a Datejust, or a sub.

That’s a big NO.

barneb10 · 1 May 2020, 10:39 AM

noooooope

peterpl · 1 May 2020, 10:41 AM

Hell No!!!!!

That Aquanaut looks like crap

rolexero · 1 May 2020, 10:41 AM

Don’t do it

iTreelex · 1 May 2020, 10:43 AM

Even if it was an aquanaut, that thing is hideous. Keep your daydate and PO. The DD complements your 5711 and 15400. Maybe flip the oris and PO for a sub

Gotgolf52 · 1 May 2020, 11:01 AM

I wouldn’t do it with my DD alone. I think the DD look 10 times better than that Patek.

Geckobros · 1 May 2020, 11:05 AM

Two nice looking watches for one ugly watch. Pass.

dummykid · 1 May 2020, 11:08 AM

I personally don't like the Patek, it looks boring to me, but I respect different people have different taste.

subtona · 1 May 2020, 11:09 AM

I like that day date best on your wrist.

enjoythemusic · 1 May 2020, 11:23 AM

a 34mm Patek? You do know it is a woman's timepiece, yes? Wife had that, or was it the 5065, anyway no way would I ever make that trade. If it was a 5167 I still would not do the trade, and I had the 5167.

It’s 36mm *41mm

Ahh ok. Looks really small on the wrist pic. Still a pass, keep the DD and OMEGA imho OP.

agsstructures · 1 May 2020, 11:31 AM

Maybe if it were a 5065, def not for a 5066

Michael T · 1 May 2020, 11:40 AM

It’s 35.6mm. I had a 5167 (40mm) and it wears small. I sold it after about four months when prices started getting frothy. The movement has a terrible buzzy sound to the rotor spinning. My wife had the diamond version of what you are looking at (35.6mm) and she sold it too. She bought a 36mm DateJust that wears much larger. A COA is five months at $1,000. My advice would be not to do it.

danyvw · 1 May 2020, 11:33 AM

No way. Keep your watches.

Al1969 · 1 May 2020, 11:36 AM

Not impressed with that Patek. Keep what you have.

johnorpheus · 1 May 2020, 11:40 AM

Let me add to that chorus by saying, no way in hell, and I have no idea why you would want to make that trade. That PO is a beauty. So is the DD. Does the owner of the Patek also have one of your family members hostage?
