2 for 1 trade?

Hello,

Debating if I should do a trade. Purchased both of them from an AD.

Trading:
2021 Wimbledon two tone 41mm REF. 126333 & 2016 air king REF. 11690

Getting:
116500LN (full set) or 16520 U series (not a full set) - assuming adding some cash as well.

Any thoughts? Is this a reasonable trade? Not an expert on this subject, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

How much cash are you adding?

Personally, I’d rather save and add vs doing a wholesale swap.

Make sure it's legit. I would want a helluva lot more than those two watches for an 116500.

If it all checks out, I’d do that trade with no hesitation.

I personally would rather add. However, if I wasn’t wearing either watch it would make sense to trade them in for something I would wear.

Be prepared to add about 8K but I definitely like the Daytona over the 2 you have.
Good luck and keep us posted

I wear them both but been waiting for a Daytona for awhile. Thought I could do a trade if it’s reasonable

Very easy decision, trade for the Daytona that you want the most.
I would go for the Zenith Daytona personally.

Yes, trade. Unless there's sentimentality behind your watches.

Sure, if you're comfortable with the values. I prefer the Daytona to those two.

As others have said, it kind of depends how much cash you'd need to put in as well for the 116500.

But assuming it's a reasonable and doable number, IMO it'd be a no-brainer to do the trade, as personally I can't stand the Wimbledon dial, and I'm not a huge fan of the current incarnation of the Air King either. TBF I'm not much of a fan of the Daytona either, but compared to a Wimbledon dial and an Air King, I'm a huge fan!

I would trade in a flash, but it's really personal preference.

Without question do that trade!

Two mediocre at best watches for a 116500LN???????? DO NOT HESITATE! No brainier!

I would expect you will have to add some cash to that trade. That would be the critical missing piece.

There hasn’t been a better time within the last few years to get into a ceramic Daytona. I’d do that trade in a heat beat!

Anybody wearing any Daytona gets instant collector respect from me. Overall, it’s a watch that is “mostly” worn by true collectors rather than the casual novice buyer.
