You paid 4700 plus your gmt??

Harry-57 · 2 February 2022, 11:47 PM

Rubbish post by me. See post #9.

karleone · 2 February 2022, 11:47 PM

Would have never done a straight swap between these two but you had your GMT + 4700 for the bluesy??

kyo86sg · 2 February 2022, 11:48 PM

Oh man, if you could wait abit longer, the GMT Steel is now on a rapid rise now. It could be a 1-1 swap (or a additional $1000 instead of $4700) if you would wait it out longer.

Given that the TT Blue Sub Date trades at about 65% of the value of the SS BLRO on the used market, you've been well ripped off. If you bought the Sub from an AD you've been ripped off up one side and down the other. But I think you've already worked this out.

Something else sounds a bit off, although I could be misunderstanding you. When was the GMT Master BLRO SS, as sold in 2019 discontinued? Is that GMT Master a TT by any chance? It hasn't been discontinued and it trades a bit above the SS BLRO but only a few hundred £. If you bought the Sub second hand you have paid the dealer a generous mark up. Expecting a straight swap with a dealer is unrealistic, but the difference should not have been thousands.

OP had a gmt LN, not a BLRO

Stewart_88 · 2 February 2022, 11:54 PM

A swap like for like I may of done if its the bluesy you prefer but I wouldn't of paid anything on top. Bluesy you can get from AD for MSRP with not too long of a wait

alphadweller · 2 February 2022, 11:56 PM

Sounds about right, you actually made a good deal. Current valuation of the 1167100LN is US$16.1K, 126613LB is $21.9K, or $5.8K difference. The Bluesy was a bargain not long ago, but it's getting hotter by the looks of it.

In that case it's a fair trade for a 13LB on the used market.

I thought the bezel insert was bicoloured. But now you mention it...

mic6 · 2 February 2022, 11:57 PM

Come on people just let the poor guy enjoy his new watch!
Congrats mate wear it in good health

Both are amazing watches.. the dream would be to have both. Enjoy.

EEpro · 3 February 2022, 12:21 AM

I'm not sure that was up but I'm glad you are enjoying your bluesy. It's a stunner.

brandrea · 3 February 2022, 12:37 AM

You must have thought it was a good idea. No looking back

Srct · 3 February 2022, 12:47 AM

You did the trade for a reason - and it’s done now-congratulations on your new watch enjoy it - regret is a total waste of energy.

1665fan · 3 February 2022, 12:47 AM

Enjoy the watch…… I’d say in two years or so the GMT will be worth more than the bluesy

Cru Jones · 3 February 2022, 12:51 AM

The most important: it's on your wrist! Lucky you! Enjoy that magnificent watch.

The bluesy is a very attractive watch, way more interesting that the GMT LN in my opinion.
Congrats.

You did not make a mistake. You got a watch which you must like more than your GMT.

hutch300 · 3 February 2022, 12:56 PM

Deal is done. Enjoy the new watch and if you miss the GMT get another.

Bill11783 · 3 February 2022, 01:04 PM

Sounds like a good deal to me. Enjoy your new watch.

insomniac2 · 3 February 2022, 02:49 PM

You did what?? That GMT was gorgeous!

WatchesNBlondes · 3 February 2022, 02:53 PM

Never would I have done that deal. You had a great watch to begin with!

Agree it was a fair trade + cash. The Sub TT 41 are going up quite quickly and by a lot.

Just enjoy it! It’s a stunner.

Laostuh · 3 February 2022, 03:21 PM

I personally wouldn't have done that deal, but that's because I'm not a fan of the bluesy.

henrylee · 3 February 2022, 03:45 PM

It’s a fair trade, I would have traded up myself. Love a bit of color esp gold and blue!

Money is not important ..looks are
The Ceramic GMT has no presence, while the Blue Sub is the National watch of America
