To part with the 14060M or not

Well, it seems my 14060M I bought in 2016 was one of the best investments I've made so far. Bought for $4700 in 2016, box and papers, F serial, 8-9/10 condition.

Lately, I've been toying with the idea of parting with it and using the funds + not much additional added to buy a new 124060.

Pros
- Values are at an all-time high.
- New watch, warranty.
- 41mm vs 40mm case

Cons
- The watch has sentimental value. I met my wife the day I bought it.
- It is in very good shape and keeps very good time for a 2001 watch.
- Potential wait at an AD for a 124060

It really comes down to a sentimental value vs. upgrade argument. I don't know how long this appreciated value is going to last.

Before anyone asks, I haven't explored actual/forecasted wait times for the 124060. I've been given a very favorable introduction to an AD that a group of friends uses and have bought about 20 watches from in the last 5-7 years. I've only expressed general interest to them. Haven't worked out the brass tacks yet.

Decisions, decisions.
