Should I sell two watches for Ceramic Pepsi ?
Prices for the Hulk and Batman has risen to a point where I'm considering of selling and purchasing a Ceramic Pepsi instead. Would you consider this trade ?
My other watches are Patek 5726 1a, Ceramic Daytona, Patek 5960 1a , Speedy Pro, AP 15400 , Rolex 16710 Pepsi |

Given your current collection, I’d go for it. The 116719 would fit in perfectly.

I am a fan of the BLRO, and would certainly do the trade.

The WG Pepsi is my current favorite watch but I wouldn’t trade those two watches for it. I’d prefer to have two distinct watches than one. But, I’m biast because I just bought a BLNR and I can’t afford the Pepsi. Good luck with that dilemma!

Depends if you want more of less or less of more, a dilemma I always struggle with since I can’t afford them all.
To answer your question, I sold an 116622 platinum dial and a PAM422 along with some more frugal pieces, to fund most of the 116655 purchase. I miss the 116622 and the 422, but I don’t regret it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not a fan of the WG pepsi so I wouldn't do it personally. However if you like it, based on your collection I would definitely go for it.

I’m assuming some additional funds would be involved as well. I wouldn’t, but I’m not a PM person. I understand the desire so you should do it if that’s what you really want.

I love the BLRO. Even as an only watch. Based on your collection I wouldn’t do that trade. I would get rid of the 5726 and 5960 thou.

Considering your current collection and the fact that after you sell the Hulk and the BLNR you will still retain a GMT (16710) I would go for a Smurf. BTW, I am biased LOL

Great suggestions and input from all. I will most likely wait until after Basel , something interesting might pop up.
Going for a smurf is a wonderful idea too. Might be redundant to have two GMT watches. |

If you want a solid gold dive watch then yes.
I would not.

If you keep 16710 than I’d go for the smurf. As far as your original question I would make that deal as well.

And you don't have to throw in any cash? If not, then this deal is a no-brainier. Do it.

I'm going with no on this one. Big fan of GMTs but that watch has never grown on me as many times as I've seen it/tried it IRL. On the other hand, the BLNR and LVC are clear winners for me on the 6 digit spectrum.

My local AD had one a couple days ago and the red just seems too muted for my taste.

With your great collection I think you should have a PM in there now. I would probably sell the Pepsi as you will have another and keep the LVc, or sell the 5960 which I'm not a great fan of myself.
