Well the basic questions are:
1 - Do you want a destro? 2 - Do you want a luminor instead of a radiomir? If you answer yes to both then go for it, if you don't then stick with the 183

Prices seem to range from $5000US to $6000US, i'd go a maximum of $5500US for secondhand and good condition.

Don't do it! I think it is something you would bitterly regret doing. You obviously wear your watches on your left wrist, leave the Destro's to right hand wearers. I have tried one on my right wrist and it just don't feel right. My brother wears his watch on his right wrist and I am always on the look out for a nice Destro for him.

but this is the trade value isn't it...so it's abt 300-500 more for straight cash sale...price wise depends on the set also. Bnib,or preowned etc. To me, it's definetly not an attractive price...

TR,
if you already own a 232 which IMHO is the best radiomir...then go for 219 then after that go get a submer |

Hi Heru,
If you were wearing your watch on your right hand, I would say yes. But since you don't, I would personally leave the interest to perusing the pictures on the web. I'm with you though and think there is something very compelling about a Destro.

Personally, I think the 219 is compelling. Base - clean and Destro IMHO - is unique on its own...

Wearing a Destro takes a little getting used to if you wear your watches on your left wrist, especially a large watch like the 219. I had a U-Boat Left Hook in my collection for a while and I just couldn't get used to how it felt. They are unique though I say if it sings to you, then by all means pull the trigger.
