It all depends on what you really want, but I would keep the Sprite IMO.

Do it. There will be no better time to pickup the Daytona 116520. I have the black. It is a very special piece. The stainless steel bezel has way more character IMO.

Trade Sprite for Daytona?

SS is less prone to scratching than ceramic? Since when? lol

As far as what OP said, I wouldn’t do this trade. Also, there is 0% chance you do an even swap

I would definitely trade a GMT for a Daytona. Be aware though the polished metal bezel on the 116520 is a scratch magnet and it never look good when re polished.

Agreed and the bezel does have special character.

That timepiece is on my wish list in either dial colour.

I think the Sprite is a lot more unique and has a lot more personality than the mentioned Daytona but then again, if you don’t get along with it, just do the trade.
