In your position, if I was sure I was getting another Daytona….I’d probably do it, given that you really like the two you’ll be acquiring. I’d only question if you’re good having a SS over a PM Daytona in the collection.

I would rather have the Daytona. Nothing special about the AP or the Omega to me.

You should trade for RG ROC 26331OR with full bracelet, it’s gorgeous by adding $30k cash to the trade. Omega snoopy is coming down, it will be below $20k soon and get it at that time.

I love my YG Daytona green dial, I will never let it goes.

This is an easy one - you like the two watches you'd be acquiring, and you like the prospective value of the one you'd be letting go despite it being [sic] small on your 7.5 inch wrist. Are you wanting the watches to collect or wear? That should be your answer.

I would keep the Daytona. At least you can go swimming with it, which won't be possible with the AP and the Omega.

Between being in it for retail and having more Rolexes and a PM Rolex in your collection - I say yeah, go for it

I would capitalize on the (I think) over inflated value of that Daytona, but not this way.

Personally, I wouldn't. Sure you're getting 2 back but you're also getting rid of one of the most coveted PM pieces for 2 stainless..

Being into watches is always about “future value” though.

I think you would wear the the other two watches more often then the Gold Daytona. You have my vote to trade it.

Ultimately if a watch bores you, it's time to let it go.

Why not steel AP and gold Speedy for even money?

This is the type of trade you will more than likely have deep regrets over in due time. Me personally, I would never trade that Daytona for a steel AP.
