AD Got the Call

Been looking for the 116519LN Daytona on Oysterflex, but my AD just called me for the Yacht Master 42 226659 OysterFlex - what do I do?!?

I have the 16622 Rhodium dial , and a 116503 Daytona, (which I want to upgrade to the 519 LN)

Do I wait for the 519LN or do I jump on the 42 Yacht master?

I am traveling so cant go try it on - but Wonder if i should send the purchase through...

It shouldn't be difficult to get the Daytona. Why compromise?

I think you're right. Retail price they are very similar to one another so I think I should wait.

Subconsciously you hit it right on the nail, I don't want it to feel like a compromise at such a price point.

Thanks guys - actually helped me a lot.

I’ll begin to post pics of the collection when I’m back from travels.

Much appreciated to all.

Why have you even been considering? I don't understand this. Because they retail at similar prices? You don't even mention you like the YM, let alone want it. Puzzled.
Cheers

I would go for it. It's gonna be super hard to get, so if you don't like it, you can easily flip it. And then you can flip the 503 for the 519.

You think rarity is going to increase? It already seems to have taper off in the last month alone (June)?

I dont think it will increase being an odd rolex piece and also PM on oyster flex.
