Trade Dilema

OK
Been trying to move my 090 and they just are not selling. I really want a 243 but just can't manage to get a trade. Got an offer for my 090 and $500 cash for a 236???

Not a HUGE fan BUT it is nice. Never been big on Chronos but love the Panerai bracelet and think this may be a move up value wise and ease of trade? What do you guys think???

Are u freakin kidding 236 is absolutely awesome out of 30+ PAMs it is my daily beater. It gets more wear than all my other watches combined.

If you really want the 243 wait it out and get the piece you know smiles at you. I was in a similar dilemma when I made a trade for my Zero. Took a little time and quite a few emails but finally put together what I thought was a good trade. I stuck to the dealers market on P.com and was able to work something out with a well known seller.

The more and more research I do on prices it seems I would be foolish to pass this up.
It just came back from Panerai for a complete service and has a year added warranty due to that. It is missing the cardboard box but it has the black box and wood box with all papers.

I would not even consider it if it was a 40 mm, but it is a 44 and as I said it seems value wise I am really coming out ahead.

Real value lies in the watch you really want, at the best price,at a time when the real chance presents itself.Dont buy something you dont really want,just because you have a desire to get rid of one you dont want.Which model you want,only you can answer.Be patient,it will come .................
