Please don't.

WatchLurv · 12 July 2019, 01:46 PM

I wonder if OP went through with this trade....

Whoever is on the receiving end of it, is laughing all the way to the bank.

Cesium137 · 12 July 2019, 02:57 PM

Do it (said the guy with the VC)

Mike Jab · 12 July 2019, 06:56 PM

I would obviously do it in a heartbeat - VC has the much superior movement.

Hell would freeze over before I do that deal

"I have a VC"
vs
"I have a Patek"

...I know which one makes people open up their eyes wider. Well, all chicks aside and only talking about people from the horological community.

To chicks:
"I have a Rolex"
vs
"I have a Patek"

They start creaming at the word Rolex. Patek they don't even flinch. In their world a Nautilus is just an overpriced Michael Kors

Depends which chicks... lol. Do you want to be with the chick that knows you drive a Ferrari or wears a Ferrari?

On that note...https://www.instagram.com/p/BzmbE_FDDn_/?hl=en You can follow the link to her instagram lol

You sporting the 11R? Or still messing with the Rolex with the gem stones? More pics please.

Seaborn · 12 July 2019, 08:39 PM

Another no

beshannon · 12 July 2019, 09:07 PM

Why?

Then no.

sctp39 · 13 July 2019, 06:35 AM

How about 12 + 10k for a Lange DoubleSplit?

dpj17 · 13 July 2019, 07:07 AM

NO Way

Lange DoubleSplit doesn't have a tourbillon...

Looks like your heart is set on one so make sure you get a very good deal, the VC will fall a lot so factor that in.

srvrf · 13 July 2019, 08:17 AM

As much as I love VC and personally want to own an overseas again, at those valuations, no way. A straight trade could be tempting, but you have one of the hottest watches in the 5712.

nycwatch23 · 13 July 2019, 08:25 AM

Now if it was an royal oak tourbillion we’d be having another discussion...

Gotta ask what’s a tourbillion for?

tiberiustime · 13 July 2019, 09:27 AM

What’re you trying to achieve out of the trade? Financial gain or do you prefer the VC?

Hell no that 5712 is one of the hottest watches on the market versus the Vc which is a turd

Commonproject · 13 July 2019, 10:40 AM

Lol this is the most biased thread ever. Don't think anyone bashing VC actually knows anything about the movement/specs of the watch. The same group of people who were bashing the 5712 a year ago for having a shitty dial layout.

DasKptl · 13 July 2019, 12:10 PM

(This is a Patek forum. Everybody will say "NO".

)

If you really want a tourbillon complication, I think that Vacheron is an excellent choice. It's quite special.

This is my perspective: 5740 > Overseas Tourbillon > 5712

soundserious · 13 July 2019, 01:00 PM

Truly awful trade. What a meaningless watch.

It’s a “look what we can build” complication

DasKptl · 13 July 2019, 08:08 PM

The Overseas Tourbillon has a beautiful movement with a peripheral rotor:

They say that "the hand-beveled bar on the tourbillon takes 12 hours to finish, alone":

Ah. I see.

Mike Jab · 13 July 2019, 10:00 PM

So sad to see all the Patek WIS hold onto their Nautilus 5712, the inferior watch compared to a tourbillon from VC, just do to value on the grey market. But these same people bash investors. Quite sad.

Just because a movement is superior does not mean the watch as a package is better.

If straight trade ok, but not with cash on top.
