Guys,

Have been receiving an offer from a trusted dealer to take my Safari for USD 16k and he offers a pre owned ROC 26300ST for USD 22.9k, so around USD 7k out of pocket.

What do you think Guys? Should I pull the trigger?

Regards,

I prefer the 26300 to the Safari, but at those prices I probably wouln't do it.

The 39mm is in my opinion one of the best RO, actually after the 15202 it is my favorite and I've owned a few (15300, 15400, 26300, 15703, 15202)

The price quote you are receiving for the 26300 is way too high. Should trade around $15k. That is a 10 year old USED watch with no warranty and due for $1400 servicing from AP. For that price buy a BRAND NEW 38mm AP 26315 instead and comes with 5 year warranty. Or buy a new AP 41mm. Both cost same as that used price you are being quoted. I would much rather have a brand new never worn watch than a 10 year old used banged up watch that could have changed hands through multiple owners.

Wow. Have the 26300s come up that much in price?

Honestly at these prices I would HIGHLY consider the new 26315ST instead, newer dials, better design, warranty, etc etc....and on top of that, you are not paying crazy high premium for a used 10 year old watch. As much as I love the 26300, max I would say they are worth is 14-15K.
