116520 or 16618

Do I trade my 16618 for very complete 116520 black dial. My watch is box only vs the daytona complete with all receipts tags etc very complete set

PM for SS? Not sure I would do that trade.

No. I like the 16618 a lot and actually prefer them over the the more modern versions. Full PM to SS is rarely a good idea.

I would not. Definitely sticking to the Submariner on that one.

Gold over steel IMO.

I am a huge Daytona fan, and I say keep the 16618. It is very unique, and one hell of a piece!

I have a 16610 and a 116500 and I much prefer the Daytona. But I would never trade a gold sub for a steel Daytona!

Both great watch's, that said, NO WAY!

Also, a black Daytona like that could be had for 20k and your watch should be worth more than 20k.

Depending on condition … I would definitely consider that trade. The Daytona is more modern and likely long term worth far more. For 116500, definitely.
