that's great! It would be a hard watch to be rid of. I traded a 16710 for a daytona and I should have kept the 16710 and added the daytona so I think you will have rid yourself of any potential regret.

Congrats on the newly acquired Sub! Great collection of watches by the way. I'll mimic half of your collection hopefully in the near future. Its a long list for the ceramic white steel daytona.

Lots of good advice, I'm with those who are saying to just hold off for a minute and see what happens.

You made the right decision. I would do the same thing, funds permitting.

Alright gentlemen I have a new one for you all. Would anyone ever entertain the idea of trading both 116520 and 116500LN for a new 116519LN?

these for this ?

Old Daytona for new Hulk ?

BIG fan of the 116520, personally...

It’s just so versatile for me, I find it hard to even justify a second watch out of sheer love for my ‘520. Maybe I’m a one watch man, and maybe I’m the minority here. I actually have been looking at adding the LV as a second piece; but I would not personally lose the ‘520 in exchange, regardless of cash on top.


OooOooo that OF though... I was also considering the WG Daytona with Blue dial or YG with Green. I still can’t stand to lose the ‘520 though.

This will really round out my collection and I’ll still be able to hold onto my favorites.

Well done
Did you buy the Hulk new (retail)?
Retail price is not that high for either LV or BLNR.......

You ARE a problem solver. No matter how many watches you have, you must have Hulk. Congrats

Love the Hulk, so I'd get that first and then decide what to do with the Daytona.

I did the opposite.....traded the Hulk for older Daytona.....maxi case imho it’s too technical in term of appearance. In this I would suggest to keep the Daytona

Love the OF but I would trade your 520 and 500 for the full WG bracelet version 116509.

I think you made a good move with your first swap. As for your second proposed one, I personally wouldn't trade one SS Daytona for a gold one and certainly not two, but I'm not a fan of PM sport watches.

Let it go so someone will get to enjoy it. I know I would definitely keep it over getting a Hulk.
