Do you mean an "A" Serial SS Daytona?? What color dial?? Regardless, you'd be trading an iconic Rolex, with a rich, full history for 3 watches that are pretty easy to replace and don't have the rate of appreciation that a Daytona has had and potentially will continue to have. Seems like you're trying to downplay the market value of the Daytona so you can rationalize for yourself making this terrible trade. You'll be kicking yourself in the "you know where" for years to come if you do it.

ROTFL. This is a funny question. Well I don't know the perspective which could make this to even be considered but I'll not support this.

Maybe, depends on what you want to do. As a straight trade, I don't think it's a good deal. But it will depend on what kind of Daytona you have and what kind of condition it's in, and what the condition of the other watches are.

If your watch is not a full set, and all the other watches are and in like new condition, then it might be worth the trade. That is if you would enjoy the other watches more than your Daytona. if you do make the trade, just know that there is no going back.

I'd do it for a Bluesy and a Pepsi. Down with Daytonas. DOWN I said.

Many people will say "oh my God, it's a Daytona. You don't trade a Daytona." The Daytona carries a lot of clout in the watch world and more likely than other watches to appreciate in value. I believe the hobby is that you buy them, sell them, trade them, and sometimes you keep them. It's your watch, and if you want to trade it go for it.

No chance, there are a lot of 2-3 watch combos I would trade a Daytona for to take advantage of its crazy price.....Those are definitely not 3 of them.

All 3 are versatile yes, but not together, all 3 are similar shaped and smooth bezeled.

Devils in the details here. What model daytona in what kind of condition for what year, model and condition 3 watches. A DJ 41 goes or 7-10, a Milgauss 6-9 and an explorer 6-8. So you are looking at 19K low to 27K high in trades for an SS daytona which may be OK to very good depending on the year, model, and condition. On the surface I'd say hold the Daytona because it's easier to move one super hot piece than 3 less desirable and you can only wear one of these at a time....no question the Daytona is the best looking girl in class and the one everyone wants to dance with.

No. Hold onto your Daytona. Maybe for something else, not for those 3 watches.

Reminds me of a decade ago when everyone was saying Angelina Jolie is the most beautiful woman on the planet. Meh, marketing. Doesn't do anything for me. Needs some meat. Same with the Daytona.
