After sitting on the sidelines for the last year or so...the new Daytona announcement has gotten the juices flowing again. Been thinking of the following options, would love to hear people's opinions:

Option 1: trade WG skyD (bracelet) for a SS YM2 and new Daytona (when it becomes available)

Option 2: trade WG skyD for a YG YM2

Option 3: trade WG skyD for a WG sub

Option 4: trade WG skyD and AP RG ROO novelty for platona and cash back

Option 5: trade WG skyD and AP 15202 for WG sub or YG ym2 and a new Daytona

Thoughts?

irish john · 22 March 2016, 07:37 PM

I like it but just doesn't seem to get the wrist time. If for dress, I usually pick up the platinum DD2 or Patek. I tend to wear sportier watches more in any case

Is it that obvious :-)?

Mainly cuz I am getting bored and am itching to add something new but wifey has vetoed and new cash outflow and skyD is the one in the collection I am willing to let go for something new

brandrea · 22 March 2016, 09:32 PM

If you have to let it go I'd vote for option #1, but you'll probably have to wait a long time for that Daytona.

Moggo · 22 March 2016, 09:40 PM

Probably option 5 for me WG Sub and new Daytona.

Keep what you have and add a new ceramic? From your current collection it doesn't seem like you would need to flip any pieces, but it's just an observation.

You like big watches so I would say option 2. The reference has outstanding wrist presence.

Rocco21 · 22 March 2016, 10:33 PM

Option 1

Sarko · 22 March 2016, 10:46 PM

just add the daytona and keep the rest.

RHIII · 22 March 2016, 10:48 PM

I would just add the Daytona --- or REALLY narrow down the trade options...there's A LOT going on there. Lol

1. I'd also sell a couple of SS pieces and get the YG YM2 or WG Sub.

Danny83 · 22 March 2016, 11:26 PM

Sell the Skydweller and get a gold YM2 and a ceramic daytona

arguetaoscar · 22 March 2016, 11:40 PM

It all depends on the rest of your collection and your lifestyle, but option 1 seems a good option.

Me too.

Token74 · 22 March 2016, 11:45 PM

Option 4.

To have a Nautilus, a RO, a DSSD and a Platinum Daytona would be amazing.

Snow-Dweller · 22 March 2016, 11:51 PM

I can hear the Platona calling you.

ppalasthira · 22 March 2016, 11:51 PM

Option 2 for me.

bio guyver · 22 March 2016, 11:55 PM

Option 5 the best.

fskywalker · 23 March 2016, 01:05 AM

Not too long before our Platona enablers chime in!......

Platona from those options of course!

ap1 · 23 March 2016, 01:14 AM

FOUR

second choice - 5

Platona is something I've been aching to acquire for sometime now. However with the new ceramic Daytona being announced and looking very similar, just hard to justify. If you consider my option 1 vs option 4, basically will be 3 watches (SS ym2, new Daytona, AP RG novelty) for one (platona plus some cash). as much as I want the platona, hard for me to pull the trigger on option 4 when option 1 is available.

brettpaul · 23 March 2016, 04:39 AM

Option 4 for me mate

Wcdhtwn · 23 March 2016, 04:44 AM

Get the platona. Why wait 4 months or longer for a daytona with a ceramic bezel when you can afford one now? Or look at the RG Daytona's on strap, kind of dressy but you could get one now (ceramic) and another YM or whatever.

I understand. But I still hear the Platona calling you. The mere fact that it's an option says it all. Just my opinion.

DandyAnt · 23 March 2016, 05:58 AM

Option 5 (go for WG sub) 👍🏼

Or go big and do:

SkyD, AP RG novelty and AP jumbo for Platona and blue smurf?
