Daytona C for Smurf
Considering to go PM and thinking to trade a 2019 116500 Black dial + 4k usd for a 2009 Smurf.

Would this trade be in my favour? Taking market value and not msrp of course.

It’s in your favor if you want the watch, haha. In terms of value, black dial goes for “only” low $30’s so I guess not bad.

I’d do that trade in a second

Granted Rolex PM has ruined me

Haven’t worn my Black 500 or any of my SS pieces since acquiring a couple PM pieces. Funny thing is I don’t want to either.

I agree. Like the others have mentioned, unless it's been beat up, that's a good trade for you.

I would not. If I wanted a wg sub, I’d add it. No consideration to value/etc, just my personal preference and thought.

The male smurfs wear a hat and pants while the female ones are fully clothed.

I’d do the trade. It’s sound economically and you’ll love the smurfs heft.

100% do it. Especially when it’s a black daytona.

Yes, from market value/profit but Daytona C is way nicer and more recognizable than a Smurf.

If you have something in your collection that can replace the Daytona, I’d say yes. If not, i wouldn’t go for the smurf, way too blue. I’d go for something like the 12 series one.
