Hey Guys!

I’ll get straight to the point I have a 116503 two tone champagne dial Daytona and 118138 36 mm day date with cognac dial (discontinued). I’m trading these for a white gold Daytona on oysterflex. Trade off I guess is I get a harder to get piece that can handle everyday use. Downside is I’m probably losing on this trade.
Do you guys think this is fair or should I be looking to get some money back from this trade?

Feels like a reasonable deal to me. Sure, you could do better if you sold the watches privately, but for an exchange deal, it feels ok.

I adore my 116519 LN so I fully endorse your decision!

HORNBLOWER · 19 November 2019, 07:13 PM

Not a deal I would do.

THC · 19 November 2019, 10:30 PM

trade in the DD and keep the Daytona.. pay the difference, imo

nnigel46 · 20 November 2019, 07:47 AM

That’s a fair deal but idk how I feel about getting rid of two watches for one but the WG is a better watch think long and hard I like those two that you have

ilovethiscity · 20 November 2019, 07:49 AM

I’d do it personally but only because I’m a total sucker for the newer models!!

fskywalker · 20 November 2019, 08:34 AM

I would say no, but that’s your decision! That DD looks very nice!

I personally wold not do that trade. But then they are not my watches :)

dunkin · 20 November 2019, 04:11 PM

no deal

1William · 20 November 2019, 10:15 PM

This is a two for one deal I would not do. I might do it for a PM on a bracelet.

bezler · 20 November 2019, 10:20 PM

I very much prefer your two watches.

Yeah, IMO I could live with letting these two go for the Oysterflex Daytona.

Danny83 · 21 November 2019, 12:28 AM

I say yes

MattyL147 · 21 November 2019, 12:49 AM

Not a big fan of a 2 for 1 trade, but neither of your references do it for me. I also love my 519! In this case, I'd do it - I think it's pretty fair for a trade.

rw2008 · 21 November 2019, 01:00 AM

I'd keep the DD, trade the TT.

Watchflair · 21 November 2019, 01:38 AM

The DD is prob worth retail $14k ish and the Daytona $12k ish retail. So is someone is willing to do a WG Oysterflex for those two I would definitely take the deal. Seems like you are getting the upper hand in that deal and don't have to deal with the aggravation of selling your watches.

DJTOSUB · 21 November 2019, 02:26 AM

I would do that deal immediately even if additional cash was required.

I would caveat that by saying I am not a fan of either of these 2 watches, but love the WG Daytona on Oysterflex.

1665fan · 21 November 2019, 02:27 AM

Do it!

J-rob · 21 November 2019, 02:41 AM

For convenience and overall value, I would take the deal.

locutus49 · 21 November 2019, 03:35 AM

I would do it as I don't care for your watches but love the WG on Oysterflex.

+1 on the trade...seems pretty fair especially with the DD on a strap

Bobby T · 21 November 2019, 07:49 AM

Very fair trade.........quite frankly, a no-brainer. Those TT Daytonas have a hard time selling above $10K and DDs on straps aren't high on most people's list. This idea of not trading 2 watches for 1, even if the deal works in your favor, is really mind-boggling.

Bizcut1 · 21 November 2019, 08:24 AM

Yes - do it!

Rado63 · 21 November 2019, 08:37 AM

If you are getting this and don't need to put in any cash, then it seems like a great deal, assuming it is a watch in good order, box papers and everything you are looking for. The watch is a great update of your collection. Otherwise what are the other options? Try to sell two watches?

Nikrnic · 21 November 2019, 11:47 AM

Your giving up two to get one of the same back. Something doesn't add up for me.

Trade the Daytona for the Daytona, pay the difference and keep the day date!

lamnyc · 21 November 2019, 12:18 PM

I would.

LuminousMaximus · 21 November 2019, 12:53 PM

the oyser-flex takes a little getting used to if you are partial to solid bracelet however, I see you have the 36mm with a strap, so I think you will be fine.

What are you still doing here...?

pkincy · 21 November 2019, 01:20 PM

Seems like a fair trade based on value. So it just depends on what you want? The 2 you have or the 1 you don't.

danwang0520 · 21 November 2019, 01:29 PM

i would keep the DD, 'n flip the TT Daytona for OF
