Trade Deepsea for 5513?

I've been offered a beautiful 1979 5513 Submariner with it's box and stamped warranty papers in return for a trade with my 2009 Deepsea. I've been really pondering over this over the past week because I've always wanted a vintage Rolex.

Now, as much as I love my Deepsea, I just don't find enough wrist time for it but when I do wear it, I love it. It's so much more comfortable to wear than my Sub's and the new style clasp is amazing to use. Plus, I do like the new blue lume.

However, the 5513 is in great condition, maybe not the best but the lugs are thick (polished a little), the tritium has a creamy patina to it and it's original braclet is in fantastic condition.

Anyway, Would you say this is a good trade or should I just stick with my Deepsea?
