I know most here will say no but I would as that is a great special daily wearer and as I have said before you take that home the rest get no wrist time!
Would be awesome!!
The weight look and feel of WG, and it's a sub!!

That's a tough call. But I think Tom makes a great point, if you were to keep all three SS pieces and bring home with WG Sub, the others would probably get no/minimal wrist time. I've grown to really like this piece a lot and it looks great on you! I vote yes, go for it! Keep us posted on your decision.

I would not do that. 3 for 1? I would check with the respected sellers here first to see how much you could save with them. I did what you are thinking of doing right now and at the end, I regreted that decision. WG blue Sub is beautiful, but to let go of a GMT IIC, 42mm Polar, and a Daytona? My advice is a NO emphatically.

subtona · 6 February 2014, 01:17 PM

Cant say i would let 3 go for it, but it suits you nicely!

zhiunit · 6 February 2014, 01:19 PM

trade one+cash, u lose versatility when u trade in 3 for 1....and is the WG sub worth it? well i havent met a person with it who regrets getting it hahaa

tkc324 · 6 February 2014, 01:28 PM

Tough call... as much as i like the white sub, i would trade 3 for 1. If it was the yellow gold GMT2c with green dial, be a different story for me.

coralfarmer84 · 6 February 2014, 01:31 PM

That's a great price for an AD. Is it new or used?

that looks used due to lack of stickers (based on pictures taken)

Aarcher@McDGA · 6 February 2014, 01:47 PM

Not 3 for 1. I like my existing watches too much. I get attached. I would have to save up.

coralfarmer84 · 6 February 2014, 01:55 PM

I would do it if the values made sense. You only live once and that's a heck of a watch

Thank you. Cheers!

up2nogood · 6 February 2014, 02:01 PM

For you, I'd suggest keep the Daytona and ditch the rest. You're either going to love the gold GMT or the gold sub, I doubt a steel one will get any time out once you had the gold sub.
Rare for folks to bother with both gold GMT and sub, aside from some of our more notable members!

CWIN · 6 February 2014, 02:08 PM

Trading multiple watches for a grail piece makes sense to me. For example, I have a fixed amount I can spend on watches which I cannot exceed. It makes sense for me to trade what I currently have for a piece otherwise unobtainable. If you no longer love those 3 pieces and the WG Sub is your grail, then I'd go for it. It's a beauty.
