Trading advice for panda

Guys want your opinion I have a Pepsi and OP41 yellow that I am thinking of trading for a panda and hopefully without adding cash . Do you think it’s a bad or good move ?

If you really want the Daytona doesn’t seem too bad a deal.

Even the msrps are close, so I also think it is a fair move.

Pepsi may become more available in a few years. I doubt the Daytona EVER will.

If you like the Daytona. Do it.

I'll be the only "NO" here having faced a similar dilemma just a couple days ago and posted the thread here. Just my opinion, but daytona is all hype and not worth those 2 gorgeous pieces you already own. I tried it on and it felt very small and underwhelming (to me). Sorry to all the daytona owners out there, no disrespect. Just not my personal preference.

No way.
At least wait until January 2022 and see where prices go.
Way too much hype on these boards about "panda" Daytona the last few weeks.

I don’t think there is any more hyper for the white dial 116500 in recent weeks. It’s always been very popular.

Even though I’m not a fan, I’d do it if I were the OP. That trade favors you.

Without adding cash you’re on the right side of that deal.

I wish it can work , not sure if dealers will ask for more cash though I don’t think it worth it if so. There is a panda that’s not worn but missing the card from trusted dealer is that a big issue ? I know card is very important but how much will impact the price of the watch is legit ?

Best way is to just ask the dealer...but I'm not sure they will give you that deal?

If they do, you should totally make the trade.

No card, no deal regardless of the price IMO, if it were me.

I actually doubt you could find that deal. I bet you will have to add a substantial amount of cash in today’s prices.

If you want to Daytona the sooner you get in the better. You’re going to be adding a good chunk of $$$ in addition to those watches to make the deal happen.

I think it’s a great deal if you’re not adding cash. I wouldn’t buy without a card though but that’s just me.

Is adding the Daytona without trading an option?

I would do that trade myself if you really want the watch and for a complete set only. Even if you have to add some cash on your end, it would be worth it as long as it's within reason, my point is that you should take advantage of the crazy market for stella dials OPs while it last.

It’s a good move. But I’m not sure it’ll be possible without adding $$

I like my BLNR more than my white dial DaytonaC. I would hands down keep the BLNR over the DaytonaC any day of the week if I could only have one. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy both and rotate all the time but the BLNR is more functional in my day to day.

You will need to add cash on this deal.

If you have someone offering you that deal, take it immediately.

I don’t think anyone would offer you that trade without a big chunk of cash. No chance.
