fair trade? yes or no?

Hello forum members. My current collection is:
Rolex 16600 V series
Rolex 16570 Y series
Omega 2201. 50.00 full set
Omega 145.0022
What do you think? I want to sell/trade 16570 and 2201.50.00 to get the Rolex 216570. is this a bad move?

second scenario: sell/trade the Omega 2201.50.00 for a Tudor Pelagos?

I think the 40mm Explorer II looks nicer especially with the red vs orange hand.

You have a vintage Speedmaster, pretty much the only Omega one needs, and nothing tops it (unless you get an original 2998, etc, but let's assume you are a mere mortal...)

I would sell the Planet Ocean without blinking.

16570 - black or white dial? It is a nice watch, but constantly the most underrated one. Either you love it, or let it go. I had one and ended up selling it - not really missing it.

I'm not a big fan of the 216570 so I have a hard time recommending going that route. I would rather try to get either a GMT, or perhaps my favorite modern Rolex - the Explorer (Mk II 214270, post Basel 2016).

Last suggestion, if you don't have any white dial watch, hard to beat the new 39mm Oyster Perpetual 39 https://www.rolex.com/watches/oyster...4300-0004.html

Best of luck

Not enough information. Sorry.

You must state

1) Condition and completeness of both parties watches.

Mint with crisp, complete sets....etc

No box / no papers / Naked...etc

2) Even trade or Cash top off involved on your end, or cash back to you.

Omega PO is in full set ( rubber strap too ), perfect condition with service
Rolex 16570 is watch only, very good condition with service.do you think that a trade of PO for Pelagos is ok? I don't now to much about that, so I need advices. Also, I think that my PO is gonna be coollectible in time, because is the first model of Planet Ocean and is the only model that don't look like a hamburger ( because of the thickness ). Regarding my 16570 ( black dial ) . my watchmaker told me to keep it, is one of the best in my country and he know what is talking.

please excuse my poor english skills

Money wise it is a fair deal.
Your PO is worth around 2.5k and the Explorer is around 4k. Both are 6.5-7k (tops).
But I would not do the trade.

Also, I would not trade the PO for the Tudor. Tudor is nice but the PO is probably the best modern Omega. It was my daily beater for about 7-8 years and it did not disappoint in any way.

toate cele bune!
