Icon14 Would you? 16600 to 116660?

I have a pretty near mint, box papers everything 16600 and am looking at a 116660 near mint, box papers everything and 4 years newer. I have a 7 " wrist and feel this would be a good move. Would be more money on my end to trade, though.

Opinions?

Thank you.

No. I’m super happy with my 16600 and didn’t feel the upgrades warranted almost 6k to get the new one. Rather put that money towards an explorer 2 or a new Tudor. Not worth the cost to upgrade imo

Honestly I would have to agree with the rest. If which it seems you have decided on the larger, I would definitely go for the JC edition. I myself was so close to buying it, it was literally on my wrist, but I have tiny wrist. I mean I can rock a 31mm. Lol. Enjoy whatever avenue you take.
