Trade a modern for a vintage

Hey guys would you do this trade 16610 submariner F serial full kit for a 16013 datejust full kit worn a few times from 1984. He is adding money on top but not sure how much. What amount would make it worth it in your opinions? Pictures attached

I would absolutely keep the sub, but you gotta go with whichever one sings to you!

I am not even certain what to price the 16013 he says 4k. I always check around the for sale threads and it's a pretty rare bird to find a 16013 with all the bells and whistles.

A Sub for a TT DJ? That's a super odd trade... unless you're specifically looking for a TT DJ? Personally, I would keep your Sub.

I see that watch as $3.3k top of the mark if you're lucky. more likely in the 2.5-2.8 range. I'm sure the sub is roughly $6k retail. maybe 2.5k cash on top would be fine, but $4k for his is a bit much

I realize I am not answering your question but still this is the obvious truth: Keep the sub. Get the DJ too.

Minimum 2500 needed to make it a fair deal!

I own both 16610LN and 1601. I kept the 16610LN simply because it looks and feels better. The 1601 is a tag smaller and it is a less "tough" watch (in terms of water resistant, durability etc).

I would not do the trade but keep the 16610 instead.

I would not trade. Keep your sub and if you want the DJ buy it from him.

I am also a fan of the TT DJ but as said earlier $4K would be a bit to much.

There are a lot of subs around and I do not think the 16013 is that hard to find either. Two different watches for sure. If you want a 16013, look around and save money for one. The price range is not huge so saving 3 grand for one shouldn't be a problem. That's the way I would look at it. The sub is a better every day watch IMHO and the DJ is a more dressier piece IMO so think about how they would be worn. 4 grand min for the trade if it were me but I would not do it.
