Should I do it? Trade...
Hello!

Just few days ago I bought a Panerai 372 ;) I'm really happy with this watch! Before start, i should say that I'm that kind of guy that doesn't like to have two watches of the same brand... Do you think I'll do right if I accept to trade my Panerai 064 and get one "like new" Jaeger Lecoultre Navy Seals Alarm? Maybe there is no money in the trade, just watch per watch.

The collection will be:

Pam372
Omega Ploprof
Rolex14060
JLC navy seals Alarm


Thank you very much!

I'm not sure how much eitheer watch cost off the top of my head.

I think it all depends if you still wear the 064 or not.


I would think it might be best to wait until the 372 honeymoon period is over first before trading however.

In full disclosure, my interest in the brand is cooling although I'd still love to get a 190, 197, and 382. However, I still appreciate Panerais. More to the point I prefer the 372 over the 064 and JLCs are special.

Well said. The problem I have with PAMs is basically all of the Luminors look the same after a while, so it's easy to get PAM-fatigue. That's probably heresy to a Paneristi, but I guess that's why I'm not one.

The Navy Seals alarm is supposed to be uber cool. I have the standard Navy Seals and love it. If it feels right, go for it! I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Cheers,

Well, the prices are more or less the same in second hand market.

The 372 is much beautiful than the 064, that's why I want to say bye bye to the 064

I like the diversification rationale. As for the watches, yes I would do the trade and get the JLC.

Well, finally the guy told me no, he prefer to sell it not to do the trade.

I will keep the 064 for few months more ;)


Thank you for all your comments

Cheers!

+1

When it comes to Panerai for me, if you have one Luminor you're all set. Unless the other one is a Radiomir.
