126719 Meteorite or 126509 Ghost

Hi interested in your opinions on this if you had a WG Meteorite GMT would you swap it for a new 126509 Daytona with the Ghost Dial ?.

I much prefer the Daytona vs GMT in general but it looks like a you are trading watch for a not so special watch

I'd never swap a GMT for a Daytona. Ever.

Gotta say, Daytona is normally my answer to everything. Not here though. Hold.

Now, modern Daytona meteorite slaughters all comers

I wouldn't, unless you just have to have a Daytona. I think in the long run, the meteorite Pepsi would be the better and more special one to have.

Any reason why you ask ? Is it something you are seriously thinking about doing ? And if so why ?

For me, Meteorite anything is as special as it gets with Rolex …
Who knows when it runs out, ok they may use another, but imagine the history behind that Meteorite … swap for another meteorite watch I’d say yes, but what you’ve mentioned I’d pass onto them this cat says no !

No way and Daytona is my fav model but the 126719 meteorite is much more special than the 126509.

If it was the 116509 meteorite dial, then I’d say yes all day long but you’d have to add about 45k, give or take.

No way. The only Daytona I'd consider moving a GMT meteorite for is a platinum one.

No on that trade. But you could do a trade for one like this. I traded in pieces that were not getting wrist time and love this one.

So you’re asking for someone else who isn’t even familiar with the forum. Are they actually going to take advice from total strangers? Oh brother
