1. Would you trade It?
2. What watch would you consider to trade it towards ? I think I can get in mid $50s in trade value.
Some of the ones I’ve considered are Lange Datograh, Vintage Daytona ( not sure if I can find one at this range), AP Perpetual
Adding money is not really an option. I was curious to get feedback from fellow enthusiasts. I know it’s ultimately my decision but appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks in Advance!

The figure of 50K-60K is not significant enough to trade a watch that you like and wear often, because of the simple reason that buying a 50K watch for wearing is not unusual, so you would do it anyway if you liked it and you didn't have it already (i guess). Second, IMO, the only watch worth trading a watch as described (which you like) is to a really serious piece, a Grand Complication which you can't get in this price range (as far as i know).
Anyway, DO NOT trade it to another watch which isn't a Patek, if this is your only Patek. The vintage Daytona? it's like a Vintage car, different category. You won't find there what you so in a new Patek.
