Flipping over 5167 to 5712

Hi guys, I am offered to pay additional usd 15k to give my rubber 5167 to steel 5712. Both used from 2015. I think it is a bit a lot. I would feel more comfortable to pay usd 12k. What do you think? Do it and at what price or not?

Not a bad deal, but not a great deal either.

Is a 5712 worth a 5167 and a Daytona , I don't think so.
I would put a bit extra and get a 5711 while holding on to the 5167.

I'd do the trade, maybe try to get a couple of grand off as the guys say.

Seems fine from a financial perspective but you will miss the 5167.

I am personally not a fan of the 5712 and so would only flip for a 5711.

It's a very easy trade to reverse so either way your fine as long as the money is right you won't be out too much if you do decide the 5712 isn't for you.

Have no idea about money to add, though 15K would seem a bit too much for me, 13 would sound right, and I have both watches and while I like my 5167, I love much more the 5712, even if my 5167 is in rose gold, I still prefer my 5712
