Opinion regarding exchange watches
Hello guys,
I have a friend who from much time want my AP 15407 steel and try with all kind of exchange. Yesterday for the first time I was interested about his Nautilus 5980 blue dial steel and gold( two tone). I wondere what is your opinion about this exchange btw AP 15407 and Patek Nautilus 5980 steel and gold model? I am not decided and also I think AP 15407 it’s an hand made art compared with Nautilus 5980…. What’s your opinions? |

I would personally not go for any two tone watch compared to what you have today…
The full gold one perhaps I’ll look into trading but that’s it. |

The blue dial on the 5980 two tone is sublime, especially with the same color monocounter dial. IMO would not make this trade as I am not a two tone guy. I owned a blue steel 5980 and grew tired of it quickly, you have something much more unique in the 15407 and I believe you would miss it. A more interesting trade would be the full rose gold 5980, assuming you would be okay with the attention a full RG watch comes with.

I wouldn’t do the trade. Your 15407 is more special.

Horrible trade. Keep the 15407. Don't ever trade that watch. Unless that is you are trading it for a ceramic 15407.

Would not trade. 5980 is one of many Nautili, 15407 is 15407.

One of the best/most sought after AP's for the 3rd preference combination of another model...eh...think you are downgrading.
Plus I'd personally prefer full RG blue dial 5990 at any rate for the Natalus platform. I mean if you are looking to do the friend a huge favor, why not? |

Good god no. Pre COVID the two tone nautilus was easily the least desirable nautilus. Trade for. 15407 - you cannot seriously be considering this.

I can’t think of any watch I would trade towards if I owned a 15407. One of the best ever!
