DaytonaC trade proposition
So I've been approached by a friend of a close friend that owns a 3 week old AD bought Daytona ceramic 116500LN black dial. He wants me to trade him 2 of my vintage pieces in an even exchange for his Daytona.

Beautiful watches, I wouldn't make the trade. I think it would be harder to replace those two than to eventually acquire a Daytona C.

Keep the Sub, trade the Omega plus cash.

No, I'd keep the Omega and Sub and just wait until I could get the Daytona outright.

Do you wear both of your vintage watches frequently, or rarely? If frequently then I wouldn't give up 2 watches to get 1 back in return, especially since you already have a chronograph.

I don't think either of those are particularly rare. Its not a red sub or special speedy. Unless they have some other sentimental value for you then I think you could replace them both for WELL under the cost of the Daytona.

I wouldn't do it. Agree about the vintage pieces being more difficult to replace.

Being vintage pieces, do those have any sentimental value to you? Maybe passed down from a family member? If not, go for it.

I would not, it would be difficult for you to get back the pre moon speed master and the 1978 Sub if you change your mind.

I wouldn't...those vintage pieces will be harder to replace if you ever wanted to. Like any "hot, non-limited edition" item, Daytona-Cs will eventually be more readily available once the new wears off.

Tough call. Right now with the 500 C in limited supply and selling at a premium I suppose you could justify the trade.
As time rolls on me thinks less so. All comes down to whether you're willing to wait for the 500 C. |
