i would go with the second choice..

not worth giving up 2 watches for a GV but worth giving up one watch and some extra cash

Welcome to TRF, "k123e2001" (I hope I got it right!).

I'd definately go with the Milgauss GV!

BTW.: you can add your first name in the user name field by going to "USER CP" in the blue bar to the left and choose "Edit Your Details".

This will give you a more personal experience.

Kevin I really hope you are just kidding. You seriously want to let go your handsome GMT IIC (+ $2000) for a neon sign Milgauss GV? Please sit down...take deep breath...and count to 100.

both deals are great for you in terms of money
you can easily sell the GV for 13000 on watchnet in one day and then buy whatever you want

i don't like the GV as a watch to keep

Humm...the GV is starting to float around a little more frequently than in the past.

I would give him (only for this month) the LV AND 3500.

Then sell it to me
I will give you another brand new LV and 4500 cash...LOL

How about option 3: working on your grammar

The GV is probably going to worth quite a lot of money in the years to come,if Rolex don't increase the number that is being released to their AD's.
So a good investment it may become.
If I had to go with one of the options it would be the 2nd one.

How about option 3: working on your grammar
Matthew
Does it really matter about the grammer, we could all understand what was being asked.
At the end of the day, this is a watch forum,not an English one!!!!

Quite right Matthew, he should take lessons from you.

Here is one of your own posts.

"At the company I worked at before everyone knew I was going RLX and because I was, others were motivated to go Yachty and Turn-o-graph (the accountants watch). After all you must keep time... you in?"

The GV is certainly harder to come by......I was at an AD today and they offered the GV at $15,000!!!!
The GMT IIC and LV are easier to come by and are sold at MSRP in LA at least..........Good Luck!
