Good deal?

My Local jeweler offered me an OEM Burlwood dial for a 18078-18248 day date. He is asking 200$ does that sound fair? Dial is mint but I already have an ivory pyramide roman dial on my 18248. Should I buy or is my current dial nicer???

If it's a straight purchase that's a very good deal, it's a trade for your pyramid trade only if you want the burl more.

I would pick it up for some point in the future if you want a change up. You can always get your money back out at that cost.

Id say go for it. The burl wood would go nice with the bark finish on that bracelet IMO

I assume he is doing me a favor. He has given me some great deals. I have purchased many watches from him I expect those kinds of deals from him after the relationship I have established.
