Sell a 16610 for the FAT 116610

Gentleman,

Really I'm not looking for a 16610 vs 116610 thread.
A while back I owned a 116610. I loved the watch, it was truly my grail. I sold it for my upcoming wedding.

There is a Sub 116610 NEW for sale at retail cost. I was close to making a deal but I found a MINT 16610 for 2,500 less then the 116610.

Now here is the issue. I want that 116610 and I miss owning one.

My reasons to keep the 16610
- I'm a chronic watch flipper and this 16610 example is amazing and I believe if I sell it, I'll never find another one.
- I want a watch as a daily driver and with the 16610 being less expensive it doesn't really bother me to scratch it as it would a watch that costs $8,500
- It's closer to that sweet bond watch. Thin case and classic look. It was the watch worn in "License to Kill" (without date)
- Being that I have a problem with flipping, I really believe that the 16610 will gain in value. I bought and sold a GMT for that reason and did really well.


What do you guys think?

I want the 116610 but I don't know if it's worth it.
