Help me to decide please !!!

Have my sub no date year 2016, new, ref 114060, with papers, no box.
A friend of mine has an Explorer II polar ref 16570, good conditions, no papers no box.
I give him my sub no date, he gives me his EXII + 2500 USD.
Is it a good trade ?
No clear if I am in the correct path... but it sounds good
Thank you for your comments friends

Your watch value $6000
His watch value $3500
Difference of $2500, sounds right on the money! If his 16570 Is a newer one and recently serviced, your doing good!

If his 16570 is newer (D, Z, or M serial) and in excellent condition, I like the trade.

Excelente trato. Lo haría sin duda siempre y cuando el Explorer esté en buenas condiciones. Saludos.

Personally like the sub more but if you need the extra cash and can put it too good use then do it. The trade is pretty even.

Trade sounds right on the money for sure......sounds like you like the polar 16570 more so why not? I can tell you the case looks much better than your maxi case sub right now IMO. But I'd only make the trade considering the Explorer is in very good condition and not overly polished.

I am about to speak blasphemy here but, I personally think there are better divers out there for less than the sub. Hulk excluded, love that one. I do like the explorer II however. I think it is a cool watch. I would make the trade if it were me. The trade sounds good and I would take the cash and buy a different diver if that's what you're looking for or use it on whatever other watch is on your radar.

Personally I would never trade a sub for an expii as I never liked the expii prob the only Rolex I don't care for but if you want it then go for it.Pretty even trade.

Your Sub don't have a date and I'm sure your longing for that date on your watch. If you think its worth it go for it.

Both are great pieces together and complement each other nicely... between the two? The Sub is a better "everyday", unless a GMT function is useful.

Maybe do it and put the $2.5k towards a 5 digit reference Sub... that would be my route.

IMO, do it.
Your sub = no date. Explorer = Date, GMT and you can still swim with it.

Guys, I'm about to trade my 26mm ladies TT DateJust (Jubilee dial/bracelet and diamond bezel) for a TT DateJust 36 with Roman mother of pearl dial. I want the AD experience and original warranty and but want to know if $9592 sounds ok. This is suppose to be price after AD discount with my trade.

Apologies, didn't mean to crash this thread.

The details of the deal sound accurate and mutually beneficial, however, my opinion would be to keep your sub. I am also not a fan of the Expii.

I think the more important question is which one you like better. Are you contemplating the trade because you like the polar better? You'll regret it if you did it for the money.
