Hi All,

I've recently left Rolex for which I had a Deepsea, then a Sub Hulk 2013 which I have now traded against a UB012721 Rose Gold Navitimer 46mm on Croc brown strap New! Straight swap!

I couldn't resist the Navi, it's always had a draw on me since my friend got one, it's a absolute beaut!

Have I made a wise decision?

sleddog · 26 March 2018, 07:00 AM

If you’re happy, then you did the right thing...

WJGESQ · 3 April 2018, 10:03 AM

How much of that watch is actually gold?

DCheeta · 3 April 2018, 11:59 AM

Wise? Is there wisdom anywhere in this passion of ours?

If you ended up with the watch that you like more then you dd the right thing.

RazorD · 12 April 2018, 07:53 PM

Well said

1William · 12 April 2018, 09:13 PM

The right decision is the one you made. You got a beautiful watch. Wear it and enjoy it. Congratulations.

If asked over on the Rolex general discussion, most would probably tell you that you have made a mistake, as the Hulk is in such high demand and is essentially appreciating in value as a result. However, if the navitimer speaks to you more, then that's irrelevant. It's a classic watch in its own right, and if it speaks more to you, then you made the right choice. Congrats on your decision.

AlexFrank · 17 May 2018, 06:21 AM

I agree

123Blueface · 19 May 2018, 01:57 AM

If it makes you smile, it was worth it.

Jackbrommel · 19 May 2018, 09:46 AM

Don't know if it's wise but obviously you are happy. Congrats

yannis · 19 May 2018, 03:13 PM

To answer your question i say no. But if there was a common conception about right or wrong then there would only be a handful of watches around. What you got is a beautiful watch so enjoy it man.

Bobby T · 20 May 2018, 12:15 AM

You'll find out if you made a wise decision when it comes time to flip/sell it........

joli160 · 20 May 2018, 06:07 AM

RG > SS, always everyday, Navi in RG is stunning

jdnLouisville · 6 June 2018, 07:18 AM

I have the SS Navitimer World and love it. Be careful if you sent it to Breitling USA for service. They have a tendency to scratch the case and bracelet and then deny it.

Dannyanderson · 6 June 2018, 07:42 AM

Big congrats.

I sent numerous of my and my wife’s watches to Breitling over the years. The sloppiness downturn happened around 2015/2016 - possibly old generation of watchmakers left and new staff does not care. Breitling in CT used to be better than the one in Switzerland... I got really upset when I sent my Emergency II for routine battery replacement under warranty and came back badly scratched up. Offered me free polish, but I declined.

borchard9 · 23 June 2018, 01:53 AM

Beautiful watch

Donaldkrama · 23 June 2018, 05:42 AM

I certainly wont trade my Hulk for a Navitimer. Beautiful though.

MKLM · 23 June 2018, 07:36 AM

I would not trade my hulk for one but agree with everyone that says, if you like it better than it was the right move!

fdm79 · 23 June 2018, 08:11 AM

Even better...
Keep both !!!

Me neither. Hulk is only going up and up and up.
