15450 is the best RO out there to me. I got the white dial. I would not part with any SS Daytona at this point for any other watch regardless of how little it is worn. The market may surprise you years from now and you cannot replace it easily.

37mm is for ladies.
Wouldn’t do this at all.

I would not do this trade, even it was a straight trade. I have both 520 and 500 Daytonas and seriously considered a 15450 to add to the collection (I had an AP 26300). After trying it on, it felt noticeably small. It did not feel like a 39mm or comparable to the Daytona as many have stated. For reference, my wrist is only 6.5 inches.
Your Daytona is your first watch, its discontinued, its incredibly popular. I fear you will regret doing the trade in the future. I would just buy the AP but suggest you compare the 37mm to the 41mm RO's side by side and make a decision then.

I agree. To me, watches are meant to be worn as often as possible and if they're not, then best to sell.

The 15450 does look small on the wrist compared to a 116520. Might be similiar lug-to-lug if you count the outer most rigid parts. But the overall look of the watch is smaller than the Daytona. The dial is small and the bracelet tapers a lot more.

That 116520 is a Rolex ‘grail’ watch. I would think twice to trade it for a 15450st. I would trade it for the AP ’grail’ watch, the 15202st, but that would require a lot of extra $$$
