Trade Possibility - 116610LV for a 126610LV

Dear TRF,

I got a Submariner 116610LV which I bought at retail in 2017, should I make a trade for a 126610LV dated 2023 full set at grey for a even deal or add a little bit of cash?

Appreciate for your opinion, thanks.

If even trade, that's a no brainer on my end!

I prefer the 126LV over the 116LV, but I wouldn't agree to a straight trade if I were the owner of the 116LV

No I would not do that trade at all. Especially since you bought at retail and your name is on the card.

I prefer the 12 personally but it’s objectively worth less than the 11. You need to pickup some cash with that trade to make it even. Straight up, he’s hosing you.

I prefer the 12 LV.

Putting personal preference aside, your 11 LV is worth several thousand more than the new one. You need to get some cash back for sure for this to pencil out.

How about trading current production rolex for a discontinued one?

Better is subjective.
I’ve owned both and sold both, but I do wish I kept the 11LV.
If it were me, I wouldn’t do that trade.

Absolutely never!

Keep the hulk and add the Starbucks in time. My advice is not to sell a hulk.

I’m considering doing the opposite. I have a December 2022 126610LV I bought at retail. I missed the boat on the 116610LV

I would NOT do that trade. Also, adding cash on top towards the 12 would be adding insult to injury

Not in a million years. But that's just me. If you want the trade, do it. It will be a win for you and a win for the next owner of the 116610LV.

No, the market price for the Hulk is higher than the Kermit II.

Keep your Hulk and buy the Kermit II at your AD.

Maybe he’s not interested in having *2* five-figure green bezeled dive watches.

Imho keep the Hulk. Personally, only ADD timepieces. No trades, no sales, no swaps.

Trading a Hulk for a black dial oversized clasp Sub is a mistake in my opinion. Hulk will win over the Starbucks in any elevator duel. You are trading a potential future collectable icon Sub.

100% right?

I’d never do that trade personally.

Never. The Hulk is special with the green dial and as you know it is discontinued and will only increase in value over the years. The new version is a just a submariner with a green dial to me.
