ok so ive put a few posts up inregards to moving on my Deepsea knowing ive got my sub as a daily and a Pam for my "big watch" days... i was looking at trading it for something a little more dressier like a daytona and now this has come from left field......
I had a local guy contact me last night with a 4 mth old SS Yachtmaster 2 that hes worn twice(purchased 21 jan 2016)...
He has wants a trade for my DSSD and $5k(USD) his way..keeping in mind mine is 2012 model

now im bloody tempted for the fact that it is a spectacular watch and that its virtually brand new with full waranty and my DSSD doesnt owe me that much in comparison as ive had it for years....... is it worth the $5k difference?
do the YMII have any resale if i cjhange my mind in a few months or a year?

help?

Do it. Do it fast!

kilyung · 14 May 2016, 11:57 AM

I'd pay $3500 tops.

It would be for me. Ok. Maybe I'd split another $500 with him so $3750.

WAK4 · 14 May 2016, 12:13 PM

5k isn't horrible...4-4.5k would be better. I think the YMII would fit in nicely with what you have.

Is the pic of the actual watch? If so, why not a green tag that comes with 5 year warranty?

masterserg · 14 May 2016, 12:16 PM

I think the trade is fair buck more buck less. Your DSSD is worth what... About 8?

I wouldn't dare questioning caveman Mike but 3500 sounds too aggressive.

this is the actual watch.. that one above was a google

masterserg · 14 May 2016, 12:24 PM

Looking at those pics, I'd say defo fair.

el1125 · 14 May 2016, 02:32 PM

I would do it. I like the YM more..

Steve36Efc · 14 May 2016, 03:02 PM

DSSD is a bit of a grail for me, but I would still do it. That YM looks the biz

Danny83 · 14 May 2016, 03:05 PM

5k is cool

kirksingleton · 14 May 2016, 03:10 PM

A ym2 is worth 13 ish and the dssd is around 8g.
5k is in the wheelhouse .

WristEnvy · 14 May 2016, 03:19 PM

I'd probably do it. Goodluck

brettpaul · 14 May 2016, 04:10 PM

It's a pretty good deal mate - maybe try to pull it down to 4-4.5k.

Chadridv · 14 May 2016, 04:35 PM

Seems fair to me. If you were to sell your DSSD for $8k, and add $6k you could probably buy your YM2 brand new via trusted seller. Essentially you'd be out an extra grand to go brand new. I'm not saying you should do that, 4 month old YM2, full set, 5 year warranty all sounds good to me, just think you should know all your options.

Canook · 14 May 2016, 05:02 PM

yeah... im torn on this one... my concern is if i dont want it in a year from now the demographic in Australia to buy these is prob very small... you are also looking at same pricing for a Gold Rolex or a patek etc...for a beautiful Stainless steel watch( and it is beautiful!). thats the only thing holding me back... a little part of me just tells me to swap it for a daytona and be done with it lol!

crowncollection · 14 May 2016, 05:19 PM

Fair enough If you really want it. I would try 4K

malnik · 14 May 2016, 05:27 PM

It's a good deal. YM II is a worth $13K and it's a better watch in my opinion.

ragingcao · 14 May 2016, 06:32 PM

Looking at the pics of the actual watch, I'd do it. I like the YM2 much better. Try bargaining a bit more? 4-4.5?

Watch This · 14 May 2016, 06:57 PM

The numbers you have gotten here are very good advice. 4k would be a better deal in my estimation. YM2 is awsome. Love mine. Alot.

AgentHsu · 14 May 2016, 07:17 PM

5k is fair. 4k is a deal.

Muzz · 14 May 2016, 08:26 PM

Really depends of the condition of your DSSD. You may be due for a pressure test and will need a service some what in the near future. You could factor that in and not be doing too bad by that deal.

Psmith · 14 May 2016, 08:35 PM

Both nice pieces - good luck with your decision

AK797 · 14 May 2016, 09:31 PM

8K for the DSSD seems low to me, unless it's in bad condition. I would pay 4k on top.

jrs146 · 14 May 2016, 09:54 PM

Fair deal. Not screaming good. But it's fair. Two very different watched. Just depends what you like. Keep in mind you could keep the DSSD and take the 5K (plus maybe a little more) to a trusted seller and end up with a great watch in addition to the DS

Ok I bailed on it somewhere in my gut was telling me that I was just doing it for the sake of having it.... So to appease my sense of loss I bought a Daytona ... I feel much better now lol

Canook · 14 May 2016, 10:30 PM
