Trade my 116610lvc for a 116519 wg of

Hey guys,
I need some TRF help. I really do not want to let my 116610lvc go but I fell in love with the WG OF Daytona and it would help fund for it.
Am I crazy?

What’s crazy about getting what you love, especially at the sacrifice of what apparently don’t.

Agreed with both above. Get what you love. Never keep something purely based on hype.

I agree with all you guys. It’s just I don’t hate my 116610lvc I love it a lot but that is my least favorite in my collection. And I have made a lot of purchases this year so I can I will only trade and add on.

If it’s the least favorite and your only way to get what you currently want, than yes trade it.

Then go for it. get what you really want.

I am still waiting to buy my LV but not willing to pay a premium, as long as it’s in production you can always replace it if you change your mind.

I would highly doubt this to be the case unless he is trading 2 1/2 116610LV’s for the 116519.

You are 100% right. I misread the model number he referenced. My post has been corrected.

Yeah I am debating on adding the lvc and the 50 Anniversary sea dweller to make the trade but it’s hurting to let go of two. So might just add $$ and let one go. I don’t wear my lvc as much due to the brightness of the color and depending on my attire. But it’s killing me ha ha

LVc will be hard to get again so make sure, if you are then its a nice trade up.

It would be hard to replace the LVc if you gave it up but you already have a diver in the SD50. In the end, do what makes you happy and don't sweat the details. Also, if you just save up over time, you can add the WG Daytona without giving up the LV.

I agree with everyone. Y’all have been very helpful. I just feel bad letting any of them go especially because it is not a financial issue.

All good advice and since you said the LVC is the least favorite in your collection I think the answer is clear.

116519LN is stunning. If you can trade up and buy it you should.

I am not the type to worry about value but I heard a lot of people saying WG rolexes will take a big hit. Is this true? Or is a small value decrease. You know know what can happen in the future.

Honestly the way these crazy SS are going I would keep the hulk and figure out or wait to get the WG. Even if it just sat in the safe. See what happened to the BLNR, just wait until that is DC'd.

Agree w this sentiment. Though im a lover of the hull and just got one, i do think if u can spin it i dont see value dropping on these and so adding the wg great idea but why not keep this watch for value proposition down the road

I think it's always better to add rather than replace. Especially if it's a watch you don't really want to get rid of in the first place. Save longer, it will be worth the wait. Subs and Daytonas are perfect compliments imo
