Nah, I think you'd regret doing that trade. You’d be giving up a lot of versatility losing those references. Not for that PP.

Personally I wouldn’t do that trade, No paperwork would put me off that deal even more.

It’s a tough one imo despite the overwhelming majority seem to be against this trade.. From a value perspective it doesn’t seem like a bad trade as such though and if you prefer the Patek maybe it’s the right deal for you. I do love the DD though. Hard to beat WG!

What are the three watches valued at?

In these types of deals, the fact that I was even "offered" any sort of trade, I would be suspicious.

Auto red flag. Don't take it.

P.S.: the date window on this Patek looks awkward.

Having both the number and date at 3 o'clock make that ugly PP even more laughable.

Which is likely why it is being traded off?

It’s this type of perspective that likely has OP considering giving up two beauties for whatever that Patek is suppose to be. Good lord, this isn’t just a balance line on an account. OP would have to actually wear that thing.

I'm all for men wearing smaller watches but it's the ladies one. Even if it was the gents I couldn't throw Presidents at what was pretty much the entry level Patek a few years ago.

Not for that Patek. That reference # is one of the ugliest models.

You may not like the Patek, but it was originally sold as a men's watch.

I'm aware of that. And I don't mind it. Patek has designated it as the ladies one by styling the modern ladies lineup after it.

I can't wait for reality to set in, and the Aquanaut hype to die down. It is NOT a pretty watch.
