Trade?

Dear Friends,

Your valuable opinion is highly appreciated. Lately, I have been toying with the idea of this trade:
-1968 GMT 1675 ( Fuchsia Insert); only with period-correct box
-2017 Nautilus white face 5711 (papers and boxes-I haven't even opened the cardbox box where the PP Wooden Box is originally wrapped as they are shipped separately)
-2018 DaytonaC black face (boxes and papers, with my name)
-2018 Sub Hulk (boxes and papers, with my name)...I Might Keep Hulk (as daily driver), and add $$ instead

For:

- PP 5170P (unworn, with boxes and papers, somebody else’s name on certificate). Amazing Piece!

Thanks...

Absolutely not! Wow, just no way.

1675 might be the nicest of your watches if you ask me!

Trade?

Don’t touch the front row, get rid of the back row if needed

Has your seller of the 5170P mentioned a cash price?

I'd keep the LVc and do it, I'd keep the D500 too if it was white.

No. Although the 5170P is indeed a wonderful piece, the market value (cf. Chrono24) of the pieces you are proposing to trade exceeds the market value of the 5170P by quite a margin (it even exceeds the RRP of the 5170P, at least here in the UK).

IF you really want to consolidate and do this trade, I would try to take your beautiful 1675 out of the equation. That would make the trade more fair in-terms of market value.

Appreciate your input. This has been a good awakening.

I made a huge mistake years ago trading a bunch of watches for a 5970J. I would never do it again. This is a mistake and your decision not to do it is the right one.

Definitely pick up a 5170p, but that trade is too lopsided imo

I'd dump everything in the back row and put in cash to get the 5170.

I also sold a few watches and bought the PP 5170P it’s a amazing piece!!
I have also the same watch box
Wenn you sell the other watches you have only one problem.....free space in the watch box.
I would do it you live only one time.
