Datejust TT 16233

I am very seriously considering the purchase of a "M" Submariner from a fellow Rolex Forum member, this will be my second purchase from him. To avoid some self imposed "multiple Rolex guilt" I'm considering selling my TT Datejust. Factory silver diamond dial model 16233, year "Y" sold new in 12/2005 at Jared. Includes all paperwork and boxes. Watch is very nice - approx. 98% no nicks or scratches. I would appreciate some input on it's value. Thank you in advance, I very much enjoy this forum. Regards, Dan

I say don't worry about "Multiple Rolex Guilt" and enjoy both. Alot of members have more than one Rolex.

Welcome excavator!

I would say keep both unless it's financially unsound for you, but I'm betting its not. You already have a little history with the DJ and I think it makes a nice start to a collection. Try to forget about any guilt if you can. If you hang out here it will certainly be good therapy for that!

NEVER sell your datejust. You will regret it some day very soon, guaranteed.

It is better to regret something you have done than something you haven't.

I would sell it or trade in with it if your not going to be wearing it least once a week.

Its not like they are one of kind , you can always buy it again down the road.

Alan111 I'm sure you are correct. I love the appearance of this watch, for me the silver dial with diamonds is the ideal combination for the TT and wear it almost daily. This was the exact watch i was looking for when I bought it. But, I will be getting more involved in the daily operation of a business that I have a partnership in and am looking for a watch that is a little less obvious. For now I may want to part with the Datejust and replace it later but don't need to sell to fund the Sub purchase. Anyone have any thoughts on it's value or recent sales or purchase history? Thanks also zac for the welcome to TRF! Dan
