Patek owners: would you trade 2 Rolex for a 5167r

Tough one as I really love the aquanaut rose gold but also love my olive dial DD.

Thought in my mind to trade 228235 olive dial and my 126610 submariner towards a 5167r Aquanaut? Am I crazy? Or will the Aquanaut turn into my new daily?

You have 3 Day Dates so I would move one or two of them for the PP!

Hey, buddy,

Personally, I would trade the two into one and keep it as a daily. BUT, I think you should wait a little bit and ride the hype train with the Olive Dial rose gold president. Maybe you can end up just doing the trade 1v1. Some people are saying the 5167 will be discontinued tho........

br,

I like that move if you have the chance of getting another 228235 down the road or similar.

Absolutely. I think the 5167R nails so many things and would be very versatile.

It would leave me still with a platinum and yellow gold day date 36mm so I would be okay likely. Just tough to let go of the olive dial DD

I would do a trade into an Aquanaut but more likely into a steel one. I didn't like the R against my light complexion in the winter months.

I'm a surprisingly big fan of the 5167R. I didn't think I would be over a 5167 in steel but I've been pleasantly surprised. For my lifestyle, it is a fantastic daily wearer. I know the olive DD is special, so maybe you could trade one of the other DDs.

The 5167R is a great reference, I love mine but I donŽt think IŽd trade both the DD40 and the Sub for it.

What is the gray dealer asking for the 5167R?
