I am considering getting the 116610 LN for my collection. I already have the 116619 but really want the SS version. I have two classic Sub in a V series 16610 and a 16610 LV F series as well as a 1680 sub.

Question: would you trade in plus cash the V series 16610 for a 116610 LN or save up for the 116610? I would appreciate your input on this. I really like the new version but have a soft spot for my classic V series.

Just throwing it out there.

Cheers!

Looks like you don't have any issues with having more than one watch in the box. No reason why you should change the MO now

77T · 29 November 2012, 11:34 AM

Me? I would do the trade + cash. If you don't like the 116610, you'll always be able to get a 16610 later.

financeman · 29 November 2012, 02:07 PM

I wouldn't trade. It sounds like you will regret getting rid of it. Just save up until you can buy it out right

Htab · 29 November 2012, 02:07 PM

I would do the trade and cash for the 116610. It's a beautiful watch

bgriz · 29 November 2012, 02:20 PM

I'd do the trade, in fact I did the same. Keep the 1680 though

SLS · 29 November 2012, 02:49 PM

I would keep the 16610, not a fan of the 116610.

I would do the trade, don't like the bracelet on the older models.

Hairdude1 · 29 November 2012, 02:58 PM

Trade

All depends how much you're attached to your 16610 and whether you're a hoarder or a flipper.

Personally, I'd keep the 16610 and buy the 116610 when funds allow. Then the awesome collection would become extra awesome!

I'd do it if I was in that situation.

drainaps · 29 November 2012, 08:12 PM

You are in no rush to get the SS SubC. Plenty of supply. I'd keep the 16,610 and buy the 116,610 in due course. I'm certain you will regret flipping the 16,610,especially if it's a full set.

I don't even mention moving on the 1680. That would be a crime! :-)

Kiddodoc · 29 November 2012, 09:19 PM

Not a flipper so it would be my first time flipping. I was always leaning towards buying the 116610 and always keeping what I have but recently have reconsidered.

I totally agree

You have a great collection going there

mannyv11 · 29 November 2012, 11:41 PM

I would save up and get it. Seems like you really enjoy the old style of the sub.

mjclark32 · 29 November 2012, 11:51 PM

Since you have the LV and the 16610 you could get away with trading the 16610 + $ for the 116610 without missing the 16610 too much, IMO.

impalass · 30 November 2012, 12:27 AM

I echo Bangel's veiw, keep your awesome collection, add the Ceramic to it and make it extra awesome !

kilyung · 30 November 2012, 01:21 AM

Rick, I have the 116619 also. Thought I'd like the 116610 so picked one up. Lasted 24hrs before realizing I liked the 116619 better.
