Trading in your Rolex for A Car or Land?
I know it seems crazy but Im sure some here has done some barter trading with their rolex
I could see trading a platinum rolex for a vintage muscle muscle car or a porsche Any cool stories ? |

Someone did post about using their steel Daytona for a down payment on a Porsche. I heard worse ideas!

Given the madness on value and investment, I think it could be the other way around for the last 4-5 years.

Why not? Makes sense.
Just have to find the right formula and seller.

Oh yeah! That would be me! Sold my 116710LN and got myself a project Range Rover L322. The watch paid for the car, insurance, service and a full tank of gas plus snack+coffee Happy days!

I would think long term, watches are a better hold than most cars which depreciate rapidly as you put miles on them. Land is always a good buy at the right price regardless of how you fund the purchase price.

I'd trade one of my watches in a heartbeat for land, that's a no brainer.
Cars, along with watches are just things...land is an investment.

Never traded or thought about trading my Rolex for anything else.

I'd let one go for the right Gibson Les Paul.... and vice versa. |
